Former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob is unwell—again. We wish him a speedy recovery, of course. https://newswav.com/A2503_GyNdYU?s=A_dMVOiPz&language=en
After all, carrying the weight of RM177,000,000 must be exhausting, especially when the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is eagerly awaiting a little heart-to-heart chat. https://newswav.com/A2503_GyNdYU?s=A_dMVOiPz&language=en
The stress of recalling every sen’s origin must be quite the burden.
But fear not! There’s a simple remedy that could work wonders. Imagine if, in a moment of divine clarity, he decided to distribute that RM177,000,000 equally among Malaysia’s 33,000,000 citizens. A quick calculation—clicks calculator—yields a life-changing sum of… RM5.36 per person!
Alright, so it will not eradicate poverty. But hey, it might just cover a teh tarik and a roti canai at the mamak stalls. And who would say no to a free meal, courtesy of a former prime minister?
But let’s think bigger. What if he donated it all—not just to the people, but to the needy, the homeless and the orphans?
Surely, that would secure him a far more comfortable future, on earth and the hereafter.
After all, Ramadan and Syawal are the best months for charity. Maybe this "hidden" money was revealed to test our faith. Could it be the long-awaited rahmat of Lailatul Qadar? A reward for patience, or a lesson in divine irony?
And let’s not forget the hereafter. Generosity could ensure Ismail’s name is remembered for good—just like certain past leaders who suddenly discovered the joys of charity when they needed divine (and judicial) forgiveness.
After all, Allah is Most Forgiving. And so, it seems, are some governments. We pray (and perhaps prat!) that someone finds both good health and a good deal—preferably one that doesn’t require an MC extension.
Now, where do we queue for our RM5.36 duit raya? God bless you!
