Sarawak:
Want state sovereign wealth fund that is similar to Bijan 1mdb. CHECK.

Want state private Bank where they can laundering money efficiently, CHECK.

Lol, DeepSar, and now digital assets, good progress.

If fail, blame semenanjung again, rinse, and repeat.

Lepas 2 tahun guna KWSP fund bail ke?

Probably 95% fixed income for stable revenue, 5% in btc for potential high gain or high loss. Even total loss will be offset by the predictable gain from the stable revenue. This is not a new thing. Just new packaging riding on the BTC hype.

Marketing job is easy.😈🤭

Crypto bukan haram ke?

Same la perokok mostly them but keep saying that haram itu haram tp rokok jugak
