"Must we wait for the house to be burnt down before we accept the warning that it is dangerous to play with fire?" Precisely why China needs to put the legislation in place. What happened in HK is indiscriminate and violent attack on the HK parliament, public properties, & HK people who hold different opinions than these so-called 'pro-democracy' demonstrators as the Western Press would have you believe. The perception is different from the reality: Do not forget that there is sinister geopolitics behind what is happening in HK. Do not be naive.

Kua's problem is that he is an armchair critic and does not know what is happening in the real world or on the ground. Or worse still he may have been coopted by financial institutions who back the Chinese government.

Foreigners should stay out of China and Hong Kong affairs? Like I should stay out in the case of domestic abusive and violent action in my neighbour’s house.
To categorise the other foreigners alienate humanity into us versus them categories - sure formula for division, enmity and stereotyping.

Govt to discuss deportation of illegal immigrants with countries of origin

PUTRAJAYA: The Immigration Department and Foreign Ministry are working closely to ensure that illegal migrants who are rounded up during raids are deported safely to their countries of origin.

Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the agencies have also been instructed to work out the necessary arrangements for the immigrants to be deported.

He dismissed claims by non-governmental organisations, including the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam), that the government agencies act inhumanely when carrying out raids on undocumented migrants amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

"It is wrong to say that we were being inhumane (towards the illegal immigrants). Regardless, the status of immigrants hauled up by the Immigration Department remains as Pati (pendatang asing tanpa izin or illegal immigrants), and have no right to remain in the country.

"We will discuss with their countries of origin on deporting them, as we don't want to send them to jail as some were caught while entering the country through rat lanes.

"To say the raids we carried out during the Enhanced Movement Control Order (EMCO) were inhumane is inaccurate. During the EMCO placed on Selangor Mansion, (it was learned that) there were 586 illegal immigrants living there," he told a press conference today.

He said when the EMCO ended, the authorities removed the barbed wires to allow residents to move freely.

"The illegal immigrants, however, do not have travel documents. The Immigration Department would be wrong if it allowed them roam freely."

Ismail Sabri said documented migrants and foreigners with work permits are protected by the law, enjoy Social Security Organisation (Socso) benefits, and basic facilities like accommodation.

"We agree that we need them in estates, construction and other sectors under 3D (dirty, dangerous, difficult), but we must follow the laws under the International Labour Organisation (ILO).

"We protect the wellbeing of all foreign workers and ensure that those at construction sites undergo swab tests for Covid-19. If the tests turn out negative, we will discuss deportation with their respective countries.

"It is not good to accuse Malaysia of being inhumane, when some countries treat illegal immigrants poorly. There is no need for politicians and NGOs to act as heroes to the Pati."

Yes, don't test them. Just send them back with COVID 19 and what have you. Send them all back to Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Rohingya Myanmar. I am sure these countries will thank Malaysia for its kindness and generosity.

After all if they are found infected with COVID 19 it must be that they were infected in transit because our illegals are largely immune from COVID 19 unlike those weaklings in Singapore.

Provided the country of origin are ready to accept them back. The cost obviously is going to be ours. That's going to be a lot.

Was there any ground work investigation done as how these people survived here for so long and who were employing them, how they got in, how often they have been moving in and out etc.
I am sure these are useful data to work on to plug the loopholes.

Obviously not, because a big container of smelly worms will spill out. Remember those worms are still around and will be at it again.

Documents submitted to an Israeli court revealed Senpai’s methods of operation and its ties to questionable regimes, including its $1.5 million deal to supply Malaysia’s intelligence agency with surveillance tools to be used on civilians
In May 2018, Malaysia faced an especially turbulent election. The Muslim country’s veteran ruling party—led by the allegedly corrupt Prime Minister Najib Razak—was gasping for air.

During the campaign, no less than 2,300 candidates were attempting to dethrone Najib, who, throughout his 10-year reign, had rolled back human rights in the country, persecuted minority religious groups and members of the LGBTQ community, diminished free speech, and limited the freedom of the press. Najib was also accused of embezzling billions in state funds, and he and his family members were known for their lavish, eye-popping lifestyle.

Posted by ChineseKungFuMaster > 2020-05-29 14:44 | Report Abuse

The pressure felt by Najib’s party, the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), was so immense that, just over a month before the election, the Malaysian government signed a deal to acquire a system that allowed it to gather information and analyze data on civilian activity. The system was meant to be used by Malaysian intelligence agency the Special Branch (SB) to surveil political activists for the opposition, according to court documents obtained and reviewed by Calcalist. The company that developed and supplied the system to the Malaysian government was Senpai Technologies Ltd., a small Israeli cybersecurity startup.



The deal was signed in April 2018 with a price tag of $1.5 million and received the code name “Project Magnum.” Since Israel and Malaysia have no official diplomatic relations, the deal was signed through a Cypriot conduit company called Kohai Corp. Ltd., founded by two Senpai shareholders for the sole purpose of serving as a front for such deals. The Malaysian government’s plans for Senpai’s system were not kept secret from the company and its use for “political investigations״ is specifically mentioned in internal email correspondence.


Malaysia was not Senpai’s only controversial potential client and, according to documents reviewed by Calcalist, it had previously negotiated a deal to sell its services to the Sultanate of Oman on the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, which also has no diplomatic ties to Israel.


Not many have heard of Senpai, whose activity has since been frozen, but it is just one in a long line of Israeli cyber companies that do not shy away from working with totalitarian regimes and countries that have no relations with Israel. Like many of its competitors, Senpai aimed sky high. In May 2019, It WAS reported that Senpai is planning to join cyber-focused consortium Intellexa Ltd., in hopes of forming a market-leading alliance that could compete with companies, such as NSO Group and Nasdaq-listed Verint Systems Inc.

Posted by ChineseKungFuMaster > 2020-05-29 14:44 | Report Abuse

Senpai’s flag product was RogueEye, a system that collects information on people from openly available online sources, such as social networks, and cross-references and analyzes it to produce intelligence reports for secret services, police forces, militaries, and business entities. Among RogueEye’s official data collection methods is a network of avatars (fake social network profiles) that follow the target and extract information through direct interaction with them.


A year after the election in Malaysia, according to correspondence obtained by Calcalist, Senpai was getting ready to sign a new contract with the SB that required adjusting the goals of the original contract in light of UMNO’s staggering defeat. “The client got the documents and we are waiting for his response,” Senpai co-founder and head of sales Roy Shloman said referring to “Magnum” in an email sent to fellow co-founders Guy David, Omri Raiter, and Eric Banoun on June 10, 2019.


“As you know, after the elections many things changed and became a bit more complicated,” Shloman wrote. “As for the client’s management process and based on some of the past conference calls with them, I think that we shall plan a visit to KL (Malaysia's capital Kuala Lumpur, TG and HR)” he added.


"The main purpose of such a trip is to meet the client (face to face), conduct some Q&A sessions, and provide them with some tips and tricks on how to maximize the system,” Shloman continued. “Bear in mind, that their objectives changed after elections from political investigations to more criminal-terror investigations,” he wrote.


In his email, Shloman said he believes the changes in ML (Malaysia, TG and HR), should bring Senpai to change its business model. “We can do it together with our current channels,” he wrote, “and to offer such services to the business sector and to the low budgeted governmental agencies.”

Posted by ChineseKungFuMaster > 2020-05-29 14:45 | Report Abuse

Senpai’s sales targets and potential additional clients were discussed in a May 2019 Whatsapp correspondence between Banoun, often described as the company’s growth engine, responsible for securing clients and deals, and Intellexa’s owner, retired Israeli colonel Tal Dillian. In the correspondence obtained by Calcalist, Banoun lists future contracts that have been discussed verbally.


For Malaysia’s phase two agreements, Banoun counted, $300,000-$400,000 from the SB, between $2 million and $2.5 million from the country’s Prime Minister’s Office, between $800,000 and $2.2 million from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, and a similar sum from the police. Banoun also mentioned a potential deal in Oman for between $1.2 million and $2.5 million. It is unclear whether these deals were eventually signed.


Najib first rose to power in 2009 when he won the Prime Minister’s seat in a landslide. This came as no surprise, as Najib’s father before him was a beloved prime minister who also headed UMNO, the country’s ruling party since it declared independence in 1957. Najib’s father, Abdul Razak Hussein, had a record of top government roles including as the minister of defense, the minister of education, and the minister of finance and was considered the one responsible for saving Malaysia from the 2008 global financial crisis.


Abdul Razak was popular thanks to his liberal policies that placed great importance on direct communication between the government and its citizens and on financial growth, which was essential to the prosperity of the developing country.


After his election, Najib established a government investment fund called 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), intended to invest in global collaborations. The Malaysian government transferred over $1 billion to the fund, which raised an additional sum of at least $6.5 billion in state bonds. Following various media reports and a rigorous investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice, it appeared the fund benefitted Najib and his associates most of all.


In its first months of activity, 1MDB invested billions of taxpayer Malaysian ringgits in a line of shady companies, some of which seem to have been established for this sole purpose. The fund’s management was entrusted in the hands of Jho Low, a little-known businessman, who was friends with Najib’s stepson as well as with several billionaires from the Gulf States.


It is possible that the alleged grandiose embezzlement would not have come to light if the people benefiting from it led a slightly more modest life, but they did the complete opposite of that. Low became famous for organizing grandiose parties. He paid American superstars, including Paris Hilton and Jamie Foxx, millions just to hang out with him, hired Britney Spears to jump out of a cake, and gifted luxury Bugatti cars to friends.


Najib’s second wife, Rosmah Mansor, rightfully earned the nickname the Malaysian Imelda Marcos—after the former first lady of the Philippines, known for her lavish lifestyle—due to her fondness for spending. According to the U.S. Department of Justice’s findings, Rosmah spent at least $6 million taken from the state fund. At one time, Rosmah reportedly filled a jet plane with luxury items acquired on a single shopping spree.


Malaysian taxpayer money funded the prime minister and his entourage’s frighteningly lavish lifestyles. Among Najib’s assets are three Manhattan properties: a $30 million penthouse at the Time Warner Center, a $33 million condo at Park Laurel Condominiums, and another $51 million penthouse. He also owns a $31 million mansion in Beverly Hills, a Los Angeles home priced at nearly $40 million, a $42 million London townhouse, a private business jet by Canadian company Bombardier Inc., nearly $100 million worth of paintings by Vincent Van Gogh and Claude Monet, and a Hollywood production company that was behind the 2013 hit starring Leonardo DiCaprio, “The Wolf of Wall Street”, which ironically dealt with the hedonistic lifestyle of another embezzler.

The embezzlement was not limited to Malaysia’s ruling family and its associates. Najib took office shortly after the 2008 financial crisis, while investment bankers who managed to survive turned to the east in search of alternative markets.


Tim Leissner, then a partner at Goldman Sachs responsible for south-east Asia, also wanted a piece of Malaysia’s billion-dollar pie. Subsequently, Goldman Sachs issued $3.5 billion worth of bonds for 1MDB in exchange for $600 million, some 200 times the normally accepted fee. According to the allegations, this excessive payment constituted a bribe for turning a blind eye to the fund's corruption and illegal activity.


By 2015, 1MDB was in so much debt, that the Malaysian government had to find additional sources to fund it. Among other things, it emptied the national Hajj fund, used by the country’s Muslim majority to save for a pilgrimage to Mecca. Many citizens deposited money there for decades to be able to afford the religious ritual, which every observant Muslim is required to perform at least once in their lifetime.



When the embezzlement became public around a year later it led to a vast public outcry in Malaysia. Najib responded to the protests with a strong hand, jailing oppositionists and promoting legislation limiting the right of protest. The closer the 2018 election got, the more tense the situation in Malaysia became.


In January that year, Najib’s political mentor, Mahathir Mohamad who was the country’s prime minister between 1981 and 2003, announced he will be running for the seat again to fight corruption. Najib then decided to take his efforts to crush the opposition up a notch, and that is when Senpai came in the picture.


It is not often that government spy deals are exposed, and it is even more rare to find written evidence that the supplying company was completely aware of the type of use a government intended to make of its product. In fact, if it were not for A financial dispute between Senpai’s CO-founders, which found its way to a Tel Aviv court last year, the documents and correspondence exposing the company’s extensive activity would likely not have seen the light of day.


According to the documents submitted to the court, Senpai also provided its services in Mexico, Aquador, Gabon, Angola, Kenya, Indonesia, and Singapore. The price list it presented to potential clients ranged between $1.2 million and $1.6 million for the RogueEye system, $750,000-$1 million for the operation of avatars, and between $30,000 and $70,000 in monthly fees. Overall, Senpai’s deals since its establishment in 2016 amounted to over $9 million.


Officially, Senpai claimed its system only collects publicly available data, but correspondence between Shloman and one of the company’s salesmen, submitted to the court and reviewed by Calcalist, revealed that RogueEye also analyzes data from phones infected by spyware. The salesman, one Gregory Krasnostein, specifically wrote to Shloman that “Senpai’s system collected the data from the infected phone and is analyzing it.”


But, even Senpai’s officially declared activity of mining data using fake accounts is not free from ethical and legal concerns. “Using avatars to gather information is a very common practice for cyber companies,” an executive from the Israeli cyber industry told Calcalist on condition of anonymity. “This lets you collect information without having to hack anything and on some websites, for example, online forums, nobody uses their real name anyway,” he added.


It being common practice, however, does not necessarily also make it legal. “This is a complex issue in international law,” the executive said. “Consider, for example, creating a fake user to converse with a hacker and exchange information that I need to defend a client. Is it morally acceptable to negotiate with a criminal, even to exchange information with them? It would appear that the right course of action is to report them to the authorities.”


Senpai, like other Israeli cyber companies, chose to sell its services and products to countries that have no diplomatic relations with Israel through conduit companies. “This is a very common practice for Israeli companies that station most of their workforce outside of Israel,” the executive said.


It is important to keep in mind however, he said, that offensive cyber companies must gain an export license from the Israeli Ministry of Defense. He mentioned one well known company that has the ministry’s approval yet sells to Gulf States through its subsidiaries. This means that Israel is either fully aware of its conduct, or that the company is covering its tracks and fooling it using various business entities, he said. “Gulf States on their part also need to cover their tracks when buying Israeli technology,” he added.

Posted by ChineseKungFuMaster > 2020-05-29 14:47 | Report Abuse

Another executive at a large cyber company who spoke to Calcalist on condition of anonymity said that more often than not, the client countries are even more reluctant to be associated with an Israeli product. “The offensive cyber industry,” he said, “is, in a way, parallel to the conventional military industry. Spyware may not kill people, but it does give the state a lot of power against its citizens.”


As previously mentioned, Senpai is just one of many Israeli cyber companies linked to non-democratic regimes, shady clients, controversial practices, or run-ins with the law. NSO, the developer of spyware Pegasus is perhaps the best known of the bunch. In October, encrypted messaging app WhatsApp and its parent company Facebook filed a lawsuit against NSO alleging the former and its Luxembourg-based affiliate Q Cyber Technologies Ltd. used WhatsApp’s servers to deliver malware to Approximately 1, 400 devices, to surveil certain USERS, around 100 of which were human rights activists and journalists.

Posted by ChineseKungFuMaster > 2020-05-29 14:47 | Report Abuse

Even before Facebook’s lawsuit, NSO’s name has repeatedly been linked to a series of questionable practices such as surveillance of human rights activists and journalists in Mexico, the hacking of an iPhone owned by a civil rights activist in the United Arab Emirates, and allegedly playing a part in the slaying of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Istanbul. Most recently, last year, members of human rights organization Amnesty International petitioned a Tel Aviv court to revoke NSO’s license after it allegedly targeted Amnesty members. NSO has repeatedly denied all of the aforementioned allegations.


Other Israeli companies to be linked to questionable regimes and surveillance against civilians are Cyberbit Ltd.—recently sold to American Investment firm Charlesbank Technology Opportunities Fund by its parent company Israeli defense contractor Elbit Systems Ltd.—which, according to Canadian research center The Citizen Lab, provided the Ethiopian government with spyware software that was used to track journalists and dissidents; AnyVision Interactive Technologies Ltd., whose facial recognition technologies were reportedly used by Israeli forces to spy on Palestinians in the West Bank, costing it an investment from Microsoft; and DarkMatter, which operates out of the United Arab Emirates and employs veterans of Israel’s military intelligence and technology units. According to the New York Times, DarkMatter developed a popular chat app called ToTok, which turned out to be a means for the Emirati government to spy on its citizens and extract data from their phones.


The severity of the cases in which Israeli companies were involved, brought David Kaye, the United Nations’ special rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression, to name Israel in a May 2019 report calling states to “impose an immediate moratorium on the export, sale, transfer, use or servicing of privately developed surveillance tools until a human rights-compliant safeguards regime is in place.”


Kaye explained his position, writing that “surveillance of specific individuals—often journalists, activists, opposition figures, critics, and others exercising their right to freedom of expression—has been shown to lead to arbitrary detention, sometimes to torture, and possibly to extrajudicial killings.”

Posted by ChineseKungFuMaster > 2020-05-29 14:48 | Report Abuse

Kaye also mentioned NSO and Israel’s refusal to revoke its export license. He also wrote that a lack of substantial international pressure and a veil of secrecy justified by claims of national security are a major obstacle in regulating the export of cyber offensive technologies.


Kaye also mentioned that despite being one of the world’s biggest offensive cyber exporters, Israel is not an active member of the Wassenaar Arrangement, an international arrangement meant to regulate the sector. Israel has included items from the Wassenaar Arrangement’s control list to its own list of controlled goods, Kaye wrote, yet its level of enforcement in the country is unclear.


Senpai was founded in 2016 by five local tech veterans: Shloman, Banoun, David, Raiter, and Jonathan Lampert. Banoun was formerly employed by the cyber and intelligence unit of Nasdaq-listed software company Nice Ltd. and helped NSO market its Pegasus system to a country that cannot be specified due to a court-mandated gag-order. Lampert served as a sales manager for several defense contractors, including Paz Logistics Ltd., which, according to the U.S. Department of Justice, served as a mediator for the sale of military products to foreign law enforcement agencies. Shloman, according to his LinkedIn page, was formerly an executive at Verint.


Last month, the dispute between Senpai’s co-founders ended when the parties signed a confidential settlement and requested the court cancel the lawsuit. The lawsuit was originally filed by Lampert, Banoun, and Shloman, who alleged that their partners David and Raiter conspired with Dillian to steal the company away from them. Though it remains unclear if Senpai was indeed sold to Intellexa in the end, its system is currently offered to clients on the latter’s website.


The lawsuit also alleged Dillian was subject to an investigation by the internal military police for fiscal irregularities which led to his dismissal from the army. In 2019, Dillian was involved in a high profile affair involving a “spy van” confiscated by the Cipryote police. The van was developed by a company co-founded by Dillian in which Banoun was also a party.


Senpai’s activity was not enough to save Najib and UMNO’s regime, and shortly after losing the 2018 election, he was arrested by the Malaysian authorities on suspicion of receiving some $10 million as a bribe from a private company. The Malaysian police froze Najib’s assets, confiscating more than $220 million worth of real estate properties, diamonds, jewelry, purses, and watches. Najib’s trial began in April last year and is still ongoing.

Human rights were at the heart of the 2018 Malaysian election and their repeated violation was among the main reasons that brought Najib down. In his campaign, Najib’s opponent, Mahathir, focused on promises to annihilate corruption and cleanse Malaysia from Najib’s anti-democratic practices. Old habits, however, die hard, and despite his many promises, as prime minister, Mahathir has only enacted a fraction of the reforms he had promised in his campaign. Even though many of Najib’s draconian laws were canceled by the new government, quite a few laws were left in place, giving the regime extensive power over the press.

How smoothly that spinning wheel spins! So now it appears that Israel, the merciless oppressors of the Al Aqsa Mosque and Palestinian human rights, and the Jews, the insidious agents of world domination, are actually alive and well and living in Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur. And not only that, they do so under the loving patronage of Najib Razak, UMNO, and ...wait for it … Mahathir Mohamad! Can we ask for anything more in the noble cause of international harmony?

The good ship “Mercy” may sail the Red Sea, bringing relief and comfort to the distressed of Gaza amid much lamenting, beating of breasts, and shedding of tears. Meanwhile back at the ranch, Najib and friends the fearless defenders of race and religion in the Middle East and beyond, are rolling on the ground laughing at the idiots and their usual antics outside the National Mosque and the US Embassy whenever the bugle is sounded.

There is one Israel for public consumption and another for turning to when times go really desperate and the satay hits the fan. All manner of justification can be offered for fraternizing with seemingly long-hated enemies; the surprise is that there are still hordes who queue to buy snake oil from a bossku and his reliable mantra of “You can count on us to protect you, our race, and our religion”. We await your rebuttal, Najib, humorous as it surely would be.

Many of us certainly do not protest good relations with Israel, we only sneer at the hypocrisy UMNO and evidently Harapan practice. The use of public funds for party purposes as in this Project Magnum has been so long established that when we come across further evidence of it, we don’t care to even bat an eye-lid. The only small surprise is that Mahathir, who frenziedly froths at the mouth when the Jews are mentioned, seems not amiss to seeking the aid of his supposedly lifelong foes.

First, paint Israel as a devil to suit political posturing. Then sleep with an agent of the so-called devil to ensure one's personal survival. When all that fails, posture as a white knight fighting for the people even when one is on trial for an alleged kleptocracy of world-shattering dimensions.

MACC, please check if there are bags and bags of Israeli Shekel (their currency) in Najib and children's houses! How about under Rosmah's sarong?

Wow! Impressive for MO1 to work so closely with the Israelis behind everyone back and show to the whole world that Isrealis are enemy number 1 to Islamic world. So what say PAS for MO1 to play behind your back? We dont need Hadi to be the Ambassador to Middle East as MO1 have successfully united the Isrealis, the Arabs and BN!

TRD, roger that, well we all hope to buy low sell high. Dont hope for that, every year when market correct, i can see so many ppl asking for help, they play contra, kena force sell, what to do. I feel for this ppl.

Whatever you guys/ladies do in market, do whithin your means. Dont borrow, dont contra, even you loose it all, you can still come back. But when you loose make sure you learn something.

Where are those retired security chiefs running around the palace with a disturbed boy to sabotage the people’s will in the name of morality while the nation’s security and sovereignty surrendered to the Zionist regime by the security apparatus? Where is the Middle Eastern Envoy wanted to fight for the Muslims in the Middle East from the brutal occupation of the Zionist regime? Where is UMNO-PAS Youth’s outrage in selling the state secret and spying on the citizens by the Zionist forces? In the end, they all wanted our public wealth—nothing else.

My sincere sympathy to our Malay friends. On one hand being misled by UMNO and PAS to hate DAP and Jews but on the other hand stealing money from Malays and having coffee with Jews. Sampai bilalah orang Malay kena kencing tak habis habis. Wonder where and how they can uphold the integrity and pride.

Oh dear…and here I was convinced that the Saudis donated money to quell anti Islamic groups and activities as stated by Najib before.

But, alas....the money was used to commission an Israeli company to help him maintain political power....oh...the betrayal....

This is why we Rakyat must not blindly follow politicians and must fight the rights of everybody and prevent politicians from going power crazy. Mohdin has shown himself susceptible to power-craziness and we need to fire up the citizenry to oppose this "Clear Skies" attitude. We also need to guard against a resurgent PH and prevent them from overreaching themselves. Using Israeli cyber companies to spy on own citizens for legitimate political activities is a betrayal of our Constitution. Betray the law and go to jail or get hanged. Betray Constitution no penalty?

PAS is supporting Najib' s UMNO who are quietly working with Isrealis. It is a slap on Hadi's face as he has been condenming Isreal. UMNO is only interested in power and money. PAS projects itself as one working for Islam but sleeps with UMNO who work with enemies of Islam.
