No cover-up? The crime was discovered in May 2008 and the report was lodged on Aug 4, 2008 - after three months. Now the public gets to know after a year plus, yet there is no prosecution so far. What are you trying to fool the public for? What took them so long?
Trying to gather more evidence or to destroy them? Hey! It is two times RM50 million now, not one. Why send in only the police? Didn't you smell something fishy? The MACC should poke its finger in too. Who is powerful enough to steal RM100 million worth of jet engines?
I heard that in order to steal water, you need someone inside to turn off the big pipe before you can connect the smaller ones illegally. Don't just check on jet engines. There are stories of national car engines being stolen or changed illegally by 'someone inside'.
Do we think only two jet engines were stolen? In Malaysia, big crimes are only for their 'discovery value'. Small ones are for MACC to sink their teeth into like a small allocation of RM2,400 to help the poor in some 'kampung'.
Leadership by example. The rot starts from the head. Once bad examples have been set by top leaders, the subordinates take the cue and the rot spreads like cancer. Where is the credibility of what you (the PM) says? Malaysia boleh.
Under the Umno/BN ruling guidelines, when you mess up, you get promoted. Just like Najib Abdul Razak from defence minister/deputy prime minister to finance minister/prime minister, the inspector-general of police gets retained, etc.
And guess what? The chief of the air force gets promoted to be the chief of the armed forces. The fact that the jet engines went missing under his watch is overlooked. Now all of them act like they didn't know about this and are making statements that insult the rakyat.
In the movie 'The Usual Suspects', the story ends with a statement, 'The greatest trick the devil played was to make the world believe he doesn't exist'. I'll re-phrase that in our Malaysian context:
'The greatest trick Najib is playing is to make Malaysians believe that he means what he says.'
