If you think otherwise you are ill-informed. As for highlighting the corruption allegations, well done Anwar. The Su-30 outclasses the F-16. If you think otherwise you are ill-informed.

As for highlighting the corruption allegations, well done Anwar.

It is common knowledge ever since defence spending became a mechanism for UMNO to raise money to spend during general elections. It was a practice long before Anwar came into the picture and when he was in the picture and when he is out of the picture. He knows the details so let him spill the beans on UMNO and the corrupt leaders. The public is not that ill informed. When Najib as Defence Minister went to London with Mahathir and closed a record deal with the Thatcher government in the late 80s, there was strong criticism by the British tabloid concerning kickbacks given to an intermediary in the transaction. Let Anwar talk about that. Ask Mahathir why he challenged the British tabloid responsible for the adverse publiciy, and then backed down??! The purchase of Russian Sukhoi fighters and the preference given to Russian fighters instead of United States' F16s in the late 90s cannot be justified as avionics for these fighters are different. Now years down the line how are these Sukhois operating? At one time the Malaysian Government purchased fighters from the U.S. which were later stripped down for their parts and left to rot in the desert of Arizona. What was that alll about??? This is all bull.
