How strange it is to be anything at all.

Saya bersedia untuk memberi kerjasama penuh kepada MACC. Peguam-peguam saya akan berhubung dengan pihak MACC untuk menetapkan masa untuk sesi tersebut.

I’m ready to give full cooperation for the MACC investigation. My lawyers will be in touch with MACC to fix a time and date for the session.

My statement on MACC’s public search notice as a wanted man. I’d like to iterate that I’m not Jho Low nor am I in Macau. This is plain and simple using the largesse of the state against a nobody like me. I’m not a politician, tycoon, or an influencer. Read here:

Fulcrum Commentary by @JamesJSChai - Political parties and coalitions campaigning in Malaysia’s general election will do better if they take note of the concerns of Gen Z voters. fulcrum.sg/zooming-in-on-… #GE15 #Malaysia #YouthVote @ISEAS

Also this: Though the rise in popularity of TikTok is prominent among youths, it was only the third most-used platform for current affairs (18%), with Facebook (29%) and Instagram (25%) still acting as primary platforms for political goings-on in Malaysia. Compartmentalisation?

Also, contrary to popular belief, Gen Zs are regular followers of political news (62% at least once a week), and they’re knowledgeable about political facts (~80% answered correctly to a quiz). Very interesting.

He found that while parental influence is strong, a high 40% would actually vote differently. BN has the highest rebellion in the household, spelling a future that is more ideologically distant than their parents.

From @JamesJSChai: Though disappointed, Gen Zs are still engaged with 79% saying that they will most likely turn out to vote, with the majority believing that it makes a difference to who wins the election and how the country caters for the youth. iseas.edu.sg/articles-comme…

“Malaysia’s newest voters should keep in mind they can still shape what’s to come — should they choose to.” I wrote for @opinion on millions of first-time voters in 🇲🇾, as it heads into its first gen election since the 1MDB political earthquake of 2018. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

@takterqyira There’s no such thing as bad publicity 😤

I don’t want to come Polisi Lab anymore sia

@netusha_ I know how that feels, but you’ll be okay. By no time you’ll start missing this place so cherish everything while you can, the good and the bitter. Good luck!

@JamesJSChai boss, u in KL or Oxford now? If the former, u going for Chin Huat's class tomorrow? :)

If you want to look for trouble, you’ll always find it. The key to happiness is to do your best at what’s controllable, and be at peace with what’s not. And if you can, be an ignorant fool on things that will absolutely break you apart.

@kelvinyee You’re not ew to me 👉🏻👈🏻

You can’t pronounce “beautiful” without “be-you”.
