ONE suspects, that Ronald Kiandee who has for decades now been a BERNAS, loyalist and humble servant had smelt READ : What Bersatu was cooking for him.
THE Sabah politicians reaction on a secret contingency plan by Bersatu to pin the blame on him for extending Syed Mokthar's BERNAS concession for another ten years, was to stick the knife back right into the heart of BERNAS.
RONALD Kiandee said READ : Sebahagian besar daripada 35 peratus beras import itu bukan beras putih tapi beras wangi dan beras istimewa.
BY law, only Syed Mokhtar's BERNAS can import rice into Malaysia and despite getting around RM600 million a year every year from the Government, according to what Ronald Kiandee said, one can safely assume that BERNAS internal priority to was to bring in higher quality and priced rice.
IF this indeed is the case then why is it, we are giving RM600 million a year to Syed Mokthar's BERNAS, which is supposed to manage the rice needs of the country competently and not hike up the price, every time BERNAS gets caught with its pants down, for focusing on premium rice imports.
KEDAH menteri besar, Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, who had volunteerd to fight dragons vulturing on the local rice market, should take note that Ronald Kiandee has identified one NAGA.
ONE suspects that Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, would rather choke on his own vomit rather than take on Syed Mokthar, who like Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor's superior Abdul Hadi Awang are subservient to Dr Mahathir.
TUN Mahathir for one knows the BERNAS story very well, beyond the head line grabbing reports of READ: Shahidan Kassim's ownership in Bernas, to how a fund under Daim Zainuddin's mothers name was the 11th largest shareholder of BERNAS.
LIKEWISE, Tun Mahathir also knows that the extension of BERNAS concession under the Prime Ministership of Muhyiddin Yassin for another 10 years, which 76 days latter saw READ : Syed Mokthar donating RM195 million to BERSATU , was not the only RICE favour done by Muhyiddin for Syed Mokthar.
THE favours started 48 years ago, when Syed Mokthar formed Syarikat Shah, a rice trader for the then government owned Bernas started supplying rice in 1975 to Perbadanan Kemajuan Ekonomi Johor
