wanna bet ?

So now it's pay-back time ! After all it is common knowledge that this man with his gaming outlets throughout the country, has indirectly paid millions if not billions into the BN machinery and the BN government owes this "little" favour to him yes ?

Tan Sri Vincent Tan's Ascot Sports, ( here ) the recent recipient of a gambling licence (with conditions ) is after all a businessman. Shrewed and sharp, this man knows which side his bread is buttered. Personally I got nothing against him. But why should the BN government who champions against all forms of gambling, issue him the licence in the first place ? Here is a classic avenue for anyone to gamble, with the World Cup looming near everyone would be placing bets, even via sms ! Yiiipeee ! Bookies rule !

Where is PERKASA and all those holier then thou moralists ? Zul Nordin and Ibrahim Ali and their foot-soldiers .....not a squick....where are you now, dumbos ? Oppss...one of them hypocrites is sitting on another of Vincent's gambling board as a director, right ? So okay, sorry...you are excused or you'd be out of job.

For some ultras, even as muslims, it is okay to buy shares into breweries ( ding....dong !... errh...San Miguel Philippines !!) and gambling houses, huh ? Sin is but a sin only if you are poor and lack education and funding. But if you are rich and well connected everything can be justified as "halal"....that's business mah !

In fact all government servant's collect their salaries every month from some kind of sin tax. But cleverly laundered by this government and justified as "hard" earned wages ! So every Malaysian irrespective of race or religion must be grateful and thankful to GAMBLERS, right ?
Go figure......as for me, I come from Taiping where anytime 2 or more of us are gathered, we gamble, from the rain to anything that moves ! And that's a fact !

This is usual SOP in Malaysia when you get called up for 'service unto dUMNO'...pay upfront the petty cash, then reap obscene $$$ later.

Ever consider the fact that 70% of Ascot is to be sold to Berjaya for a cool RM500 mil based on a piece of paper that says that it had the right to conduct sports gambling in Malaysia? It means that if this 'right' is to be tendered out, the government would have reaped more that RM700 mil. And those guys say that they needed the GST to raise more money for the government.
What a load of bulll!!!!!
