The High Court has found DSNR aka bossku guilty for 7 charges mostly involving money laundering, power abuse and criminal breach of trust.

There are 35 cases more to go. Najib has appealed for this case. Should he fail, he will be jailed up to 55 years.

Obviously he will vacate his Pekan constituency seat which has been a stronghold since his dad's time.

Justice has prevailed. Of course, he can win at court of appeal or at federal court or even Agong can pardon him and thy hail from same state.

This could also crack the current coalition "Perikatan Nasional", where a pact will support Muhydin and another for UMNO. let's see if there's going to be a snap election.

Man Utd back to Champions League

Leicester led United by 14 points on January 30 - yet the Devils have overhauled them.

While fans around the world were expecting Liverpool to win the Premier League. Nobody expected Manchester United to achieve top 4 in the Premier League. Before the Covid-19 break, they were merely at 7th place,and the Covid-19 break gave them a chance to restructure and change the strategy. That made the team to be unbeaten in all league matches, post Covid-19 break.

To add to the bonus, they achieved 3rd place and gained automatic qualification for Champions League. On Sunday's match, it was a do or die matter against Leicester City. A draw for man Utd would mean they secure at least 4th position, but the win makes the icing on the cake, where 4th placed Chelsea finishing same points i.e 66 but Man Utd had greater goal difference.

In addition, Man Utd, is the 3rd best defense team for the season behind, Man City and Liverpool.

While they have lost out to Chelsea on FA cup quarterfinal. Now the hope is on Europa Cup....It's definitely a great comeback for the red devils.

JOJO's words



During MCO, it has been a practise for me to attend webinars and online talks. The recent talk I participated was, Keeping yourself Going, where the guest speaker was Jojo Struys, TV host, actress and yogamaster.

I asked her question , where She was a BBA graduate, and she didn't follow the traditional path of corporate, but went on her own. Above was her answers.

ACCA Career Webinar





When you are being challenged, don't say why me. Say, test me. Small minds talk at the back and merely attack through fake emails. But hero will always be recognize and appreciated.

It was a great opportunity given by ACCA to moderate the session for the ACCA affiliate/students on the webinar entitled : Being resilient, Begin with End in Mind.

As usual, the session kicked off with opening speech by ACCA marketing staff, then followed by myself with the moderation and the speaker was also my colleague sharing her experience on getting through the paper after several attempts.

Initially, the questions were slow, then we were flooded with questions, until we had to stop it. One of the interesting questions I had was as above.

I was happy to share my experience and knowledge as ACCA student and developing caliber accountants.

A mistake to cover another mistake

https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2020/07/605507/electricity-bill-discount-extended

The electricity bill has been hiked by 100% to 150% on monthly basis, with the reason, the reader was not able to visit the houses during the MCO period. The minister stated that it's actually based on estimation and it could reduce during later months, once the actual calculation kicks in. In addition, the ministry offered installment payment.

Thereafter, the minister offered discount of RM77 per month to reduce the burden for 3 months (March to May).

Now the ministry offers further discount till December.

My question is, why can't the send the officers now as, the RMCO is not as strict as MCO. In addition, with smart meters, they should be able to read the bill from their location, without reaching house to house.

The minister is a Phd holder yet he stumbles compared to his oxford graduate predecessor.
