  • Happy life to TUn,.. Pls continued yr effort to make our nation come true for vision 2020.

  • The son of an Indian man for example can become a Malay. Please help your fellow Indian countrymen. If you want to be respected you cannot be a racist mofo who practices apartheid.

  • Why give space to this person? Don't waste time.

  • When he was in Egypt, his body guards shouted, "Let our PM pass away! Let our PM pass away!" (Biar PM kami lalu!)
