That's your world, not mine. Don't say "we".
I live in the real world. If you need a companion for YOUR world, look for KillChoy. He fantasizes a lot about pumping his 老母。

Even if he is given another pardon later which wipes out his record, he is only clean under the law but in the eyes of the public, he had stolen the country's money before and will be suspected of hiding the money somewhere.
If despite this he is still voted back to power, the freebies that the voters are getting must be damned good. A country where the rakyat vote for freebies rather than good jobs because the latter means that thou must work, thou must not be lazy
... is a country which will see Forest City having the word "City" removed, for all intents and purposes.

Malaysia halves ex-PM Najib Razak's jail term over 1MDB scandal.
Former Malaysian PM Najib Razak's 12-year jail sentence for corruption has been halved by the country's pardons board. Najib was jailed in 2022 over the embezzlement of Malaysia's state-owned wealth fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
The board also reduced fine imposed on him to 50m ringgit (£8.3m; $10.5m) from original 210m ringgit.
Najib must pay this in full to secure his release in August 2028. If he fails to pay, his sentence will be extended for another year until 2029. He was convicted in 2020 after spending two years appealing his conviction before the courts. The jailing of such a senior figure in Asian politics at that time caused major ripples across South East Asia. It was held up as a rare example of accountability in a region where power is so often unaccountable.
However on Tuesday, reports emerged that Malaysia's pardons board had met on the last day of the King's tenure to consider Najib's application for release. Malaysia has a rotating monarchy - King Abdullah Ahmad Shah passed the reins to Sultan Ibrahim Iskandar on Wednesday. The reduced sentence sends a message that leaders in South East Asia act with impunity, said James Chin, professor of Asian Studies at the University of Tasmania.
"If you reach a certain level in your career, nothing can happen to you," Prof Chin told the BBC. He said the leak of the pardons board's decision appeared to be an attempt to manage possible public outrage.
Najib's United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), which previously led the ruling coalition that governed Malaysia, has been pushing for a royal pardon after testing and exhausting other legal avenues of appeal.
Two weeks ago, Najib was escorted from prison by guards to appear in a Kuala Lumpur court to hear his latest legal challenge. Along with his wife Rosmah Mansor, he still faces a raft of other charges. Despite the huge damage to his reputation done by the 1MDB scandal, and revelations about his role in it, Najib remains popular among grass-roots UMNO supporters, many of whom benefitted from the largesse he offered ethnic Malay communities when he was running the country. He managed to solidify that support with a slick PR campaign even after he was charged, with the slogan Bossku (Your Boss).
None of the UMNO leaders who have replaced him enjoy the same popularity, so they needed to be seen to be trying to get him out. Najib's party is not the force it was, but it is still one of the largest parties in Malaysia and a part of the governing coalition headed by his old nemesis Anwar Ibrahim. It is not so surprising then to see its wishes being accommodated.

Najib,70 this year remains popular among grass-roots UMNO supporters, they many folks benefitted from largesse he offered ethnic Malay communities when he was running the country. He managed to solidify support with a slick PR campaign even after he was charged, slogan Bossku (Your Boss).
None of UMNO leaders who replaced him enjoy the same popularity, they needed to be seen to be trying to get him out. Najib's party is not force it was, but it is still one of largest parties in Malaysia & a part of the governing coalition headed by his old nemesis Anwar Ibrahim. It's not surprising then to see its wishes being accommodated.
On 1MDB scandal? -- The 1MDB scheme was a global web of fraud & corruption, in billions of dollars ostensibly raised for development projects, (instead landed into private pockets, Najib's & fugitive financier Jho Low?.) Jho is wanted by authorities, is said to have been mastermind behind the scheme, country's anti-corruption body said.
Case centres around 1 Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), a sovereign wealth fund set up in 2009, when Najib was PM. Sovereign wealth funds are govt owned entities are used to boost it country's economic development. Built with state earnings, for EG: revenues from oil resources & exports, it extraordinary flows of cash to invest & potentially enormous international clout.
In 2015, questions raised on 1MBD's activities as it missed payments owed to banks and b
bondholders. Malaysia & US authorities allege about $4.5bn was illicitly plundered from fund is diverted into private pockets, the missing money has been linked to luxury real estate, a private jet, Van Gogh & Monet artworks purchased by Low - and even a Hollywood blockbuster, the Wolf of Wall Street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
Last week, US bank Goldman Sachs reached a $3.9bn settlement with Malaysian govt for its role in multi-billion-dollar corruption scheme, the deal resolved charges in Malaysia that bank misled investors when it helped raise $6.5bn for 1MDB.
