Casino issue: Skip Marcos-style threats, LFL tells PM

This is not the first time Vincent Tan proposed the Casino Deal.

Back in 2008, 2010 and 2013 there were proposals but nothing came out of it because Najis was a shareholder of Genting and certain Elites want to continue having the monopoly.

The idea of another Casino was mooted by Nor Yakob, Daim, Mahathir who were not happy Genting belong to Lim Goh Tong and certain Royalty.

They wanted another so that they can have shares in it.

Today Anwar threatens those in the know.  WHY???????

Is it because Anwar wants to maintain his Islamic image?

What I understand is the deal today has NO MAHATHIR, NO NOR YAKOB AND NO DAIM INVOLVEMENT.

HOW LONG CAN ONE HIDE THE TRUTH ESPECIALLY IN MALAYSIA?

IN MALAYSIA EVERYTHING IS ABOUT MONEY AND POWER.

SO WHO HAS THE MOST POWER AND MONEY TODAY???
