Will the real Slim Shady  Please STAND UP. MAMBANG, (Kalau Berani jemput datang mari bertandang)

is a song from Altimet,  the 42 year old hip hopper who is still a trend setter. Taken from the 2018 Air album, Mambang was a bona fide hit, describing the story of a big name in selfdoubt

When it comes to Business  reporting in Malaysia,  the Gold Standard has always been the now defunct Business Times .

 And then we have TheEdge, started by a banker and filled with mostly ex Business Times staff.

The Serba Dinamik saga,  is going to make or break the Edge, in more ways then one can imagine, , as some of its editorial staff have crossed the line in their reporting. 

There is something called credible reporting and something called a witch hunt. 

As I said in the previous article that the market has given a premium to KPMG's  credibility  by a whooping 79.20 per cent that it is correct on the major and not minor issues of the audit. 

In the event KPMG is not right by a margin of that size,  I am afraid the Edge  won't   be able to hide behind fair comment. 

I was from the Business Times,  and the first thing we learned was to piss straight.

 I was taken aback on The Edge's narrative about auditors getting sued in Malaysia as something out of the ordinary.  Try this for BREAKFAST  Ekovest versus  Deloitte.  

Kalau Berani jemput datang mari bertandang
Aku Tahu kau bukan calang calang mambang
Orang Lain basah seluar celah kangkang
Dulu Aku budak baru kau lepas pandang
Sekarang Aku lagi hantu dari kau mambang
