If you need to expose someone harmful (stalker, pedophile, abusive employer, etc) - read this first👇🏽 You need to realize that you are opening yourself to defamation if you don't have any solid proof. Even if you do, it still means you can get sued. Defending yourself is going to be costly.

- Ex-PKR youth chief
- Police report made in Ampang Jaya
- Datuk title
- Has 400 chickens
- nine vehicles in a large house
- 2 cats
Can already narrow down who the employer is even though the person is not named in the story.
malaysiakini.com/news/677915 I removed the double mention of the 400 chickens twice. Suka sangat ayam ye 😆

Saya tak akan naik banana bot, bot laju, para gliding atau jet ski yang disewakan tepi pantai. Sebab semua ni, kalau aku accident tak boleh claim insuran hayat, kesihatan atau personal accident. Dia dianggap aktiviti bahaya, kalau nak buat juga - atas risiko sendiri. Buang duit premium aku bayar mahal setiap bulan je kalau aku cedera atau mati tak boleh claim.

Aktiviti bahaya lain seperti flying fox, bungee jumping, diving pun aku tak buat. Aktiviti ni kena ada insuran tambahan.

Yang naik ride kat funfair ride pun aku takut naik kalau dia bukan syarikat besar. Kalau naik dia punya roller coaster dan aku jatuh lumpur seumur hidup - at least aku boleh lagi saman syarikat tu RM1 juta dia mampu bayar. Yang buat funfair kecil tu aku tak yakin dia boleh bayar.

Polisi insuran ni benda orang jarang baca, tapi at least kena tahu lah apa exclusion list (benda tak di cover). Logik dia simple, jangan cari bahaya/risiko tambahan kalau ia boleh dielakkan. Travel insuran yang korang beli tu pun kena baca.
- bayar dulu baru claim ke? Kalau kau masuk ICU kat London bill dia 50K Pound, kau mampu bayar dulu tak?
- Insuran tak cover penyakit yang kau dah ada. Kalau kau ada darah tinggi, lepas tu kau dapat stroke sebab stress jalan sehari kat Seoul, insuran travel tak bayar. Pasal tu bila nak pergi haj, Tabung Haji ada pemeriksaan kesihatan. TH nak kurangkan risiko kau sakit di Mekah.
- tengok travel insurance kau ada medical evacuation tak. Kalau kau dah masuk ICU di Seoul, kau tak boleh fly balik naik flight biasa. Kena ada medical ambulance. Time tu lah orang nak minta tolong MAS, Air Asia fly balik. Kena convert kapal terbang dia cabut seat letak katil hospital.

Read through MUDA's 'Kertas Hitam' manifesto. They call it their 'true north' in how they want to service the public. So here are things I found interesting. Finally, someone addressing the huge fuel subsidies we are paying. Other coalitions did not want to touch this as it's not popular. All previous governments have failed to find a way to do targeted fuel subsidies (especially East Malaysia). Image

Been reading PH's manifesto #TawaranHarapanPRU15 to see it addresses my major concerns. Here's what I noticed so far 👇 HOUSING
Does not address rising cost in building new homes and the disparity between income and home prices, especially in Klang Valley. Even with financing schemes - many with stagnant income would not be able to keep up with home prices in Selangor/KL.
