    I wonder how much was promised vs how much is actually going to be delivered and how long before Malaysia learns they’ve been shafted yet again.

      Our politicians are likely in it for the short term. We are so fucked. As it is, Malaysian politicians can’t even decide if it’s own ethnic chinese are citizens, or immigrants.

      Anwar himself is just barely clinging on to his premiership, having been forced to work with the roundly criticized party of convicted former pm najib to form a coalition.

      And on the other side of the scs, the phillipines is getting the stick. Wonder what the agenda of the next ASEAN summit is gonna look like.

    What’s he going to say? They’re already boarding Filipino boats in the South China Sea. He’s been cowed into submission as planned.
