**Gossip of the Day**
My mum's less-than-a-year Proton Saga was banged and the person was trying to flee right infront of her. What scumbags this society has!
I just finished watching Prison Break Season 2.
22 holy episodes of them in 3 days.
1 episodes is around 40 min plus.
And boy i have to say this.
Nothing is better than conspiracy and hidden agendas.
And guess what?
We too have our very own made in Malaysia's conspiracy.
So if you are pro-government.
I do sincerely hope you'll discontinue reading the material I'm about to show you below.
Just to note, it wasn't written by me and was plucked off the internet.
I won't say it's entirely true, but you can still listen to other peoples' side of the story.
And the reason why I'm revealing this is because i might be a potential victim too if it's true.
So to what extend on how genuine this story is, it's up to you, the public to think, and to questions the people who are involved.
If you're hestitating now, please stop.
If not, read it with your own risk.
This is a shocking truth about the impending demise of MAS, followed by
KLIA.
Read what goes on behind the scene in Air Asia and who actually owns
the company.
Fasten Your Seat Belts : The Air Asia, Badawi, Singapore, Kamaludin,
Tg Adnan, Kalimullah Story

Kawan-kawan, please fasten your seat belts now. I thought that I knew
something about what is really going on in the administration of
Abdullah Badawi. Today I found out I have not even scratched the
surface. The following is panas-panas news. You may want to hit the
ejection button (not yours but theirs) after reading this.
Firstly, the shareholders and/or stakeholders of Air Asia (directly,
indirectly, through proxies, etc.) include Kamaluddin bin Abdullah
Badawi, Kalimullah Maseerul Hassan (also into Tune Hotels), Khairy
Jamaluddin, Tony Fernandez, etc.
We all know the story of Air Asia. Well, we all thought it was a rags
to riches story. It is actually a story about riches. The rags part is
actually very hazy. When MAS entered into a phase of 'restructuring'
about 3 years ago, Air Asia, through Tony Fernandez, struck fast and
furious.
Before we go further, you may want to ask why did MAS have to suffer
yet another 'restructuring'? That is a story by itself for another day
but just bear in mind that Badawi's brother, Ibrahim, is the owner of
the catering company (Skychef?) that used to supply mineral water at
RM35 a case to MAS.
With that kind of pricing, surely MAS would need 'restructuring'.
Anyway, Air Asia stepped in and pushed the Govt. for a
'rationalisation' of the domestic air routes in Malaysia. Air Asia
asked to be given MAS' Sabah and Sarawak routes. MAS could keep flying
in Semenanjung, they said. Despite objections by MAS, Air Asia was
granted its wish.
But the wish did not just happen. Zaki, a fourth floor boy at the PM's
office, helped Air Asia make its wish come true.
Once MAS lost its Sabah and Sarawak routes to Air Asia, there was a
staff redundancy. So MAS had to organise a VSS. MAS demanded that
since Air Asia was taking over their Sabah and Sarawak routes it would
make some of their staff redundant so Air Asia should pay MAS some
compensation.
Everyone (MAS, Govt and even Air Asia) agreed that compensation was
payable to MAS. But Air Asia would not pay anything. Finally, the Govt
(that means you and me lah, Mr Taxpayer) paid the compensation to MAS,
which MAS promptly used in one of the most expensive VSS payments in
our history.
If your blood is starting to boil, stop reading and better cool off
because it does not get better.
Then, within one year, Air Asia realised that the Sabah and Sarawak
routes were not profitable. They never were. MAS was performing
national service in Sabah and Sarawak. Flying chickens and goats is
not a money-making venture.
No problem. Air Asia made another wish. They told the Govt, we have
to return these air routes back to MAS. Again MAS objected. Again
overruled. Not relevant.
Then came the handing over ceremony of the air routes and the
airplanes. When they took over the Sabah/Sarawak routes, Air Asia had
'acquired' seven airplanes from MAS in perfect working condition. (MAS
does have one of the best safety records in the world.)
However, when Air Asia 'returned' the planes to MAS, only one was left
in working condition. The other six planes were grounded, not fit for
flying and could not fly.
In actual fact, Air Asia was cannibalising parts from the six planes
to keep the seventh one flying. Again MAS objected. Again overruled.
Not relevant. It eventually cost MAS in excess of RM50 million to make
the planes flyable again. This was a direct subsidy to 'rags to
riches' Air Asia's profits.
Then Air Asia started eyeing the lucrative KL-Singapore routes.
Tighten your seat belts. This one will really jolt. But they went
about it the roundabout way. They said they wanted to go
international. They did (some) but international routes are tough. No
Zaki, Badawi, Khairy, Kalimullah or Kamaluddin to make your wishes
come true.
But the KL-Singapore sector was generating RM40 million in PROFITS to
MAS. This was the plum in the pudding. Air Asia wanted it badly.
So they made another wish. It came true. This is how they did it. Air
Asia's bid to break into the KL-Singapore sector was first discussed
in Cabinet when Badawi was on holiday overseas. Najib chaired the
meeting and Air Asia's application was rejected.
The application was rejected for two main reasons:
i. By 2009 the whole of ASEAN becomes open sky anyway. ASEAN airlines
can fly to all ASEAN capitals without restrictions. So why open up
KL-Singapore in double quick time?
ii. If budget flights are allowed between KL-Singapore, KLIA will die
an unnatural death. KLIA will become a feeder airport for Singapore's
Changi. People will fly from KL to Singapore and then fly off from
Singapore to the rest of the world. MAS will then die a natural death.
So the request was declined.
Then Badawi came back from his travels and asked Tengku Adnan the
Minister of Tourism to prepare a paper on tourism, linking MAS, Air
Asia, SIA, etc., to tourist arrivals. At the next Cabinet meeting
chaired by Badawi, he asked Tengku Adnan to present the 'Cabinet
paper'.
Insiders say that the paper was an 'out of Agenda' item - meaning it
surprised everyone, but the "dunggus" approved it nonetheless. Air
Asia got its wish again. Tengku Adnan also secured his Putrajaya seat.
Now here is the killer. Soon after Air Asia started flying the
KL-Singapore sector, they started giving away 300,000 free tickets, 5
sen tickets and all the other gimmicks. Singapore is believed to be
subsidising Air Asia for all these expensive gimmicks.
For SIA, losing RM40 million (S$17 million) profit from the
KL-Singapore sector is chicken feed. Air Asia is feeding thousands of
transit passengers from KL to Changi . Air Asia is providing RM19 bus
rides from KL to KLIA. From KLIA, passengers fly almost free to
Changi. >From Changi the passengers can connect to the world.
Now, Air Asia is making another wish - they want to fly direct from
Kuching, KK, Penang, Alor Setar, Kota Bharu, etc., to Changi. They
will earn even more 'subsidies' from Singapore. KLIA will drop dead
later, MAS will die first.
This is how we go from 'rags to riches'. And we all thought Tony
Fernandez was such a great guy too. The shareholders and/or
stakeholders of Air Asia (directly, indirectly, through proxies, etc.)
include Kamaluddin bin Abdullah Badawi, Kalimullah Maseerul Hassan
(also into Tune Hotels), Khairy Jamaluddin, Tony Fernandez, etc.
Yes, we believe in open skies, competition and all that. But friends,
fellow Malaysians, this is the PM, his son, his S-I-L and his cronies
lah. How can they sell out their own country? But this is what they
are doing.
Kawan-kawan, come March 8th, 2008 you have an opportunity to hit the
button for the ejecion seat. Hit the ejection button and send these
people out into oblivion. Don't give them any parachutes either.
