Pointless! The world has many system! Democratic system is just one of them! This summit is just like the Malay Dignity Congress! Bragging for nothing! Head by US, you know there's interior motive to it! Better skip!

Our system is constitutional monarchy! Malaysia will only get into trouble if US demand full democratic system!
