COMMENT | Every day millions of Malaysians go about their lives. They earn a living, pay their taxes and grapple with the vagaries of life.
Some Malaysians commit crimes and suffer the consequences. Some are lucky with a good support network and they rehabilitate themselves and return to the mainstream of Malaysian life. This does not apply to the political elite in this country.
