Pakatan Harapan’s “get-Robert-Kuok-rich-quick” scheme
The truth is, because of Mahathir’s quarrel with China and because of Sarawak Report’s anti-palm oil campaign, our palm oil sudah tak laku. So, Malaysia is using the tak laku palm oil to pay for goods and services. But the Pakatan Harapan government does not have its own stock of palm oil. So, they need to buy it from Robert Kuok. And that means Robert Kuok bertambah kaya while Malaysia bertambah miskin.

Malaysia will pay for arms purchases with palm oil
(Bernama) – Malaysia is negotiating with several countries to acquire military assets through barter trade, said Defence Minister Mohamad Sabu on Friday (Apr 19).
Pakistan, Russia and China have shown their readiness to accept palm oil in exchange for military equipment, he said at a press conference.
“We have been working towards a barter system and have received a positive response,” said Mohamad Sabu. (READ MORE HERE)
Robert Kuok owns that palm oil who Malaysia will buy from
The point is this. The Pakatan Harapan government DOES NOT own any palm oil. The palm oil is owned by private companies, and Robert Kuok is the biggest of those palm oil traders. According to FELDA, they may own the plantations and the production of palm oil, but they DO NOT control the marketing of their own palm oil. FELDA’S market, especially China, is monopolised by Robert Kuok. Hence FELDA must sell through Robert Kuok.
Basically, this means the more palm oil Malaysia uses to pay for its purchases and development projects, the more palm oil Malaysia needs to buy from Robert Kuok. So, this “use palm oil to pay for purchases and contracts” is actually a “get-Robert-Kuok-rich-quick” scheme.
Robert Kuok is already the richest man in Asia. After this Robert Kuok is going to be the richest man on earth and the moon. How nice to be a Tun Daim Zainuddin-Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad crony.

Teresa Kok’s big wayang to cover up the fact that Pakatan Harapan is helping to make a very rich Robert Kuok even richer
Teresa Kok is talking kok. DAP is trying to give an impression that the Pakatan Harapan government is breaking into new markets. This is a big wayang to cover up the fact that Pakatan Harapan is helping to make a very rich Robert Kuok even richer.
The chart below shows that Malaysia has been exporting palm oil to Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and many Middle East countries in huge amounts. And Malaysia has been selling to these countries long before Pakatan Harapan took over the Federal Government in May 2018. Teresa Kok ni nak cuba tipu siapa?

That is what Mat Sabu and Teresa Kok are actually doing but are not telling us.
Sarawak Report’s very successful anti-palm oil campaign has hurt Malaysia, in particular Malay FELDA settlers
