HELLO MENTERI KESIHATAN DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS? PROBIOTIC DIABETES CONTROL.

 Here is the news:

A research team from East China Normal University in Shanghai developed an engineered oral-deliverable glucose-sensing and functional response probiotic (GIFT) living drug for "sense-and-respond"-based control of diabetic blood glucose, marking a brand-new approach for diabetes treatment.

The research was conducted by researchers from the university's School of Life Sciences, and the findings were published in the journal Nature on Aug 12.

Using synthetic biology techniques, the research team engineered a probiotic with a century-long history of safety into an "intelligent virtual organ" that can be taken orally and reside temporarily in the intestine. It can sense blood glucose fluctuations in real time and autonomously secrete glucose-lowering hormones, enabling therapeutic dosing in response to real-time blood glucose levels, and providing a programmable, orally deliverable sense-and-respond platform for metabolic therapy without transplantation.

This approach shifts diabetes blood glucose management from the traditional passive model of injections and medication to a new paradigm of "oral implantation and autonomous regulation", achieving true on-demand drug delivery and physiological-level closed-loop control.

MY COMMENTS: Hello Menteri Kesihatan the Chinese are introducing new treatments and new medicines for diseases, sometimes there is one new drug or treatment every week.  

Is the Kementerian Kesihatan keeping up with these latest developments in China? I suggest the Kementerian set up a Chinese Pharmacology and Medical Sciences department whose main task should be to study and keep track of all the latest medical and health discoveries being made in China and how we can bring these new discoveries into Malaysia for the benefit of our people.

Now the Chinese are also an acknowledged world leader in the treatment of cancers. They are marketing (already available in their pharmacies) brand new cancer drugs that are helping cancer patients.

China's Growing Importance in Global Cancer Medicines.   China has transformed from a generic drug manufacturer into a primary global engine for innovative oncology research and development. Propelled by sweeping 2015 regulatory reforms, massive out-licensing deals, and deep engineering capabilities, Chinese biotech pipelines now supply a substantial share of next-generation cancer therapies worldwide.

So please keep track of what is going on in modern Chinese medicine. If they can cure or control diseases like diabetes and cancers do not waste time with useless red tape and 'siapa dapat kontrak'. Just bring these new discoveries into Malaysia at minimal cost so that we too can benefit from the Chinese advances. 

The American and European pharmaceuticals may not like it but they are history.  Dont worry about them.

The Never Ending Violence In Southern Thailand

Here is a brief video about the never ending violence in southern Thailand.  My comments follow.

MY COMMENTS:

From the late 1990s until 2004 I wrote two fortnightly newspaper columns - one in English in The SUN and the other column was in Malay in the Berita Minggu. Then on October 31st, 2003 Abdullah Badawi became prime minister. Soon after both of my newspaper columns were 'çancelled'. At that time I was pro-Mahathir so in the ethnic cleansing that comes with every new prime minister I lost both my newspaper columns. 

I recall that in my very last column in The Sun I predicted that violence would break out in southern Thailand. At that time things were quiet in southern Thailand. Then exactly as I had predicted, in January 2004 there was a major attack by the Patani insurgents against the Thai government.  That violence has continued until today.

That Thai podcaster is completely clueless as to why this problem is persisting for so long. 

1. DISTANCE:  Pattani is 1,000 km away from the center in Bangkok. Plus the southern Thai Malays number about TWO million people - out of Thailand's 67 million people. That is just about 2% of the Thai population. In a democracy 2% of the population does not add up to anything for the political parties.  Especially if that 2% is difficult to handle. So the 2 million Thai Malays in the south are just too far out of sight and out of mind from far away Bangkok. Plus Thailand also has other Muslim populations including native Thai speaking Muslims who have no problems at all living in Thailand. 

2. RADICAL ISLAM:  Unfortunately the Salafis have become embroiled in radicalising the Patani Malays. This has been going on for some time. And Salafi influence comes from outside Thailand.  Lately the Salafis in the Middle East (the Arab variety) have taken a beating because Saudi Arabia - the mother lode of Salafism - has gone night clubbing and rock concerting (under Muhammad bin Salman). Salafism is quite dead in Saudi Arabia. Meaning the money supply and the radicalisation has suffered a major hit. But too late. Now there are other non-Arab Salafis in town who can keep the fires going.

There is also the Muslim Brotherhood. They are also trying to sink their claws into the grievances of Muslim groups in the region - and see what they can stir up.  They are active in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Benua Asia Tenggalam. I will  be surprised if they are not active in southern Thailand.

3. MONEY:  There is plenty money in southern Thailand, especially along the Malaysian border. Recall our General Ops Force personnel who have been shot along the Thai border. This really means smuggling.

The following is the smuggling business from:

Malaysia → Thailand: diesel, petrol, cooking oil, sugar, wheat flour, LPG

Thailand → Malaysia: rice, fruits, vegetables, food products, clothing, kitchen goods, fireworks, cigarettes, drugs

This smuggling business needs people with guns and bombs. These are the same people you see shooting guns in the video above.  So they are into multi-tasking. 

Smuggling also means turf wars. Exactly like the Mafia. Who controls the smuggling routes. Who are the officials they have to bribe - on both sides of the border etc.

Sometimes things can go wrong. Money is lost, smuggled goods are lost etc. Someone tips off the authorities etc. People will then settle scores.

Its a bit complicated in southern Thailand but it can be solved - if done step by step.  

If they cannot get rid of corruption then we will get rid of them.

 

Strong political will from top leadership key to fighting corruption, says Ayob Khan
By Bernama
August 18, 2026 

• Former Deputy IIGP Tan Sri Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay interview Ruang Bicara
• Strong political will, from highest leadership, crucial to combating corruption 
• top leaders must lead by example and demonstrate firm resolve
• only succeed if those at helm sent clear message of zero tolerance 
• Change must come from the top
• If leaders truly have political will to make it happen
• culture of covering up wrongdoing 
• corruption should not be treated as "internal secrets" 
• If we do not acknowledge problems we are heading towards destruction
• we will move backwards while other countries move forward

MY COMMENTS: 

This is how I read Tan Sri Ayub Khan. What he is actually saying is there is no political will to combating corruption. Leadership by example is also lacking. There is no such thing as zero tolerance for corruption at the highest levels. So change is NOT going to come from the top.

Now this is where we come in. The ordinary people, the voters must keep changing the leaders. Like soiled baby diapers - the more frequently we change them, the better for us. 

If they cannot get rid of corruption then we will get rid of them.

BIG TROUBLE FOR DAP: MAJORITY 2,407 DELEGATES (56%) ACTUALLY VOTED TO QUIT FROM PH

Well the DAP congress ended yesterday 16th Aug 2026.  Also yesterday I received this vote count (issued by the DAP).  I immediately sensed something was not right.   

They kept crowing that 4,264 delegates would attend the DAP gathering. 
But if you add 1,857 + 242 = then only 2,099 delegates  attended and voted. 
What happened to the balance of 2,165 delegates who were supposed to attend?
4,264 - 2099 = 2,165 or 50% of delegates did not attend the congress.

And only 1,857 delegates voted to stay in PH.  242 voted against the motion.
So if you add the 242 to the 2,165 delegates who did not attend the congress, it means 2,407 DAP candidates potentially are against the motion for the DAP to stay in the PH.

2,407 is 56% of the total 4,264 delegates. That is a majority of the candidates.

This is exactly what has been pointed out by P Ramasamy - former DAP member and ex Deputy Chief Minister of Penang.  His numbers are slightly different but close. Here is Free Malaysia Today:

DAP congress was dramatised as do-or-die moment for DAP
it was expected at least 80% to 90% of delegates would attend.
Poor congress turnout suggests things are not well in DAP, says Rama
FMT Reporters
Ex-DAP leader says congress to determine party's direction 
following defeats in three state elections.
P Ramasamy said 2,223 out of 4,264 delegates, just 52%
‘abysmally low’ for special congress to vote on a major party decision
low turnout of delegates at DAP special congress yesterday
nearly 50% of delegates did not attend the special congress
If higher percentage attended, motion could have been defeated.
absence of nearly 50% delegates indicates DAP is not well 
non-support for motion to remain in government
DAP should ponder if congress’ decision reflected majority 
2,223 delegates attended 
2,099 voted 
1,857 delegates voted to remain in government 
242 voted to leave the administration
Anthony Loke said turnout considered high (Anthony Loke higher mathematics)
Rama criticised Loke 
it was no ordinary DAP conference 
Aug 16 congress to determine political direction of party 
after poor performances in Sabah, Johor and Negeri Sembilan 

Anthony Loke just made it worse for the party. They are now sailing into really rough water.

The rocket might explode on the launch pad. 

The DAP's biggest weakness lies outside the party. Anthony Loke adamantly refuses to see that PKR and PH are really pulling the DAP underwater. 

Are there other benefits Mr Anthony? You are sending your party to the Club of Doom.

WHY CHINA MUST BE DESTROYED: US$3.00 EYE GLASSES

 

JOHOR POLLS WIPEOUT (DWI BAHASA, ENGLISH AND MALAY)

Mula sekali terima kasih dan tahniah kepada pengundi Johor yang telah tendang keluar penipu dan otak lembu Pakatan Harapan. 

Lets analyse the results. Lets do the easy ones first. In 2022 the PH won only 11 seats in Johor. DAP won 10 and PKR won 1 seat. Yesterday the PH was wiped out - the DAP won only 6 seats and PKR kept its single seat. (Did Amanah win 1 seat?).

I see a split in the vote. UMNO won big - they won 36 out of the 37 State seats they contested or 97% because of local Johor sentiment.  I dont think UMNO can repeat this outside Johor.  Lets see what happens in Negeri Sembilan. 

The PH on the other hand got wiped out because of national sentiment.  People do not like them for all their rubbish and bullshit in Putrajaya. The same sentiment that got them kicked out in Sabah.

PKR - PKR contested 20 seats but only won 1 seat. Or 5% of the grade. Total failure. This party is now officially dead. All the good people including Wan Azizah Wan Ismail have left the scene. Only the idiots remain.

DAP - DAP got kicked out 8-0 in Sabah. Complete shutout. Before that the PH got their asses kicked in the SIX state elections. Now they got kicked out again in Johor. They contested 16 seats and won only 6 seats or 35% of the marks. That is a FAIL grade - below 50%. This is the THIRD TIME they got kicked out. Believe me the PH are going to get kicked out in the General Elections. 

This is the SECOND TIME the DAP has screwed up. They made it into the Federal gomen in 2018. But they screwed up big time. Then they got their second chance in 2022. Tell me, how many political parties get a second chance in under FOUR years to form the Federal gomen? But they have screwed up again. I must say the Chinese politicians and their supporters are only good at talking big. And of course helping the property developers. Developers Action Party or DAP. As a political movement to move an entire society forward they fail. To put it mildly these folks are quite stupid.  There is no need to say much else about this bunch of idiots. 

PARTY              WON VS CONTESTED             %

UMNO                       36 of 37                            97%

MCA                            8 of 15                            53%

MIC                              4 of 4                             100%

PKR                             1 of 20                            5%

DAP                             6 of 17                            35%

PAS                              0 of 11

BERSATU                    0 of 16

BERSAMA                   0 of 15

MUDA                          0 of 4

Notes:   BN fielded 37 UMNO, 15 MCA and 4 MIC candidates, covering all 56 seats.
PH allocated its seats as 20 PKR, 19 Amanah and 17 DAP.
PN's allocation was 22 Bersatu and 12 PAS.
PAS, Bersatu and Bersama failed to win any seats.

Bersatu got totally wiped out. They contested 16 seats and lost all. This is the result of Bersatu splitting and throwing out Hamzah Zainuddin from the party. Hamzah has substantial support and ability. It was a mistake for Bersatu to have thrown him out. Tan Sri Muhyiddin should just quit from leading the party but its too late now. There is no one capable to take over the party. Plus in Malaysia party leaders simply do not quit their party posts even when they get kicked out by the voters. (Except for Najib in 2018).

Bersama - Rafizi Ramli's first outing in Johor was a disaster. They contested 15 seats and won 0. Rafizi does not fully understand the right 'formuler'.  Rafizi's economic ideas (that nasi lemak machine, his retail business program) are nightmares. The guy does not quite understand business or economics. In Johor they fielded candidates who 'applied for the job'  online. This was a first - and disastrous. 

Here is the formuler : the party must develop a solid national agenda. That shall be its national identity. All Malaysians should be made aware of the party's national agenda. Even in State elections. But down at the State level, you always pick candidates from the State level. They must know the local terrain and the local people must know them. You cannot pick candidates from Online applications. 

But what is Bersama's national agenda? Well even if they have one - they got kicked out 15 - 0. And please stop talking big. Tak ada apa pun cakap besar pasal apa? Friday podcasts for three hours?? Even the unemployed jobless guys do not have three hours to listen to you lah. Formuler tak betul. Where is your agenda for the people?  Abolish the tolls, abolish the Sedition Act, abolish the APs, get rid of the gila babi import duties and taxes on motor vehicles. Liberalise the banking industry fully. 100%. Abolish that rice import monopoly. Abolish all monopolies and oligopolies. Can or cannot? Please answer yes or no.

Muda - They won one seat. Youth does not sell well. In the United States of America the most liberal and perhaps most egalitarian society in the world it is rare for youth to get elected. Even in super liberal California, even the youngest voters respect experience, achievement and solid platforms. This means older candidates. Generally a 50 or even 60 year old with a good track record, experience and knowledge stands a better chance than a novice 25 year old. There are exceptions but maturity and experience are extremely important. In Malaysia the age factor in candidates is even more important. The voters want to see experienced and generally older candidates. If they are well educated all the better. It is difficult to go against this trend.

PAS : PAS bertanding 11 kerusi dan kalah semua. Kepada sahabat di PAS,  sila ambil maklum. Semua orang sudah tahu cara nak sembahyang lima waktu, cara nak ambil air sembahyang, cara naik haji. Pada zaman sekarang anak-anak kita berumur 17 tahun boleh tahu hukum-hakam naik haji secara detail. Ramai pula pernah berkursus mengurus jenazah sekali. 

PAS mula ditubuhkan pada 1951 dulu (apabila keluar dari UMNO). 

23 August 1951 – Persatuan Ulama Se-Malaya 

24 November 1951 – Persatuan Islam Se-Malaya (PAS). 

1972 - Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (PAS).

Zaman itu masjid sikit saja, sekolah agama, kolej dan universiti Islam tak ada atau paling sikit. TV Hijrah tak ada. Di sekolah kebangsaan pun tak ada kelas agama. Jadi bila PAS mula perjuangkan agama pada tahun 1950an maka ada juga orang kampong tertarik. PAS jadi parti orang kampong. Ini bukan sindiran tapi realiti yang mempunyai kesan yang sangat besar yang PAS harus faham.  

Sekarang keadaan sudah berubah. Hari ini pula setiap anak Melayu pelajari pendidikan agama mula dari tadika sampai ke universiti. Pengajian agama di peringkat sekolah menengah saja (SPM) sudah hampiri diploma di negara lain.  Sekarang agama sudah menjadi industri skala besar. Agama sudah jadi bisnes.  Artis jual agama (lagu dan musik). Perbankan Islam jual agama. Sijil halal, makanan halal semua adalah bisnes yang lumayan. Ustaz glamour kaya melalui podcast, YouTube, ceramah agama dsbnya. Ustaz kepala umrah, rombongan haji semuanya kaya. Lepas tu gerombolan Salafi (dulu Wahabi) bertembung dengan golongan Asam Jawa. Hari-hari makin gaduh.  

Maksudnya agama sudah tidak lagi exclusive kepada perjuangan PAS. Dari stesen bas sampai ke stesen angkasa lepas (angkasawan Malaysia) orang Melayu boleh jumpa agama.  And then kampong pula makin kurang penghuninya.  Ramai generasi muda sudah berhijrah ke kawasan bandar.  Lebih 70% penduduk negara kita sekarang dianggap urban population. Orang bandar. Orang bandar menghadapi masalah yang berbeza daripada orang kampong. Peluang pekerjaan, sekolah yang elok, perumahan yang mampu dibeli atau di sewa, kos sara hidup yang tinggi, harga minyak, kualiti hospital (dibiayai dengan dana awam), sistem pengangkutan, harga kereta mahal, bayaran tol dan pelbagai lagi cabaran hidup di bandar. 

Jadi dalam realiti seperti ini di mana pula peranan PAS untuk membantu masyarakat kita? Hudud dah tak ada dah. Itu bagus. RUU355 pun entah ke mana. Bagus juga.  Lepas itu pengundi Islam di seluruh negara kurang daripada 60%. Baki penduduk negara adalah bukan Islam. Cina, India, Dayak, Dusun itu berbelas juta orang. Takkan PAS tidak mahu berurusan dengan bukan Islam? Atau tidak tahu? Ahli Parlimen itu wakil rakyat. Bukan wakil agama. 

Jadi apa pula perjuangan PAS pada abad ke 21 ini? Ini adalah tahun 2026. Bukan 1951. Semua orang sudah tahu sembahyang. Bebudak umur 17 tahun pun boleh belajar urus jenazah. Orang Melayu dah tak heran dengan perjuangan PAS. PAS perlu overhaul dengan serius.

MUST READ. ORANG MELAYU MESTI BACA. OIL INDUSTRY WILL CRASH PERMANENTLY IN 10 YEARS MAX. HERE IS WHY.

 

Here is the oil price chart (West Texas) for the past 30 days.

Despite all the ongoing Hormuz bullshit, in the past 30 days West Texas crude has gone from US$90 per barrel down to US$68 per barrel to yesterday's US$71 per barrel. These prices are relatively low.  Oil is not likely to hit US$100 - maybe never.

In 2024 Saudi Arabia cancelled capacity expansion to 13 million barrels per day.
1 million bpd of future capacity was cancelled.   Saudi's present capacity ≈ 12 million bpd.  But actual production ≈ 9 million bpd.  Shortfall ≈ 3 million bpd

• World oil supply is now about 105 million bpd. 
• World oil demand is just below 104 million bpd.  
• Despite the ayatollah monkeys, world oil supply exceeds demand. 
• China consumes 16 million bpd of oil (about 15%). This is disappearing.
• Please take note.

But here is the real threat on the horizon. It is called Thorium Molten Salt Reactor (TMSR) and it is Made in China.  It does not need cooling water, no danger of Fukushima or Chernobyl accidents, it can be built small and modular (possibly in 12-18 months by the Chinese)  and it runs on super abundant thorium - which is a waste product from many mining operations. China has enough Thorium to last them 20,000 years or more.

Here are two videos you must watch. Maximum 15 minutes. You can double the speed on YouTube.

The Chinese are planning to build ultra large container ships powered by thorium molten salt reactors.

• Thorium molten salt reactor (TMSR) powered container ships
• Producing roughly 50 MW electrical power
• Extraordinary endurance - decades without conventional refuelling
• Ship size:   about 230,000–250,000 tonnes carrying 24,000 containers  

It will be the end of bunker fuel for Chinese container ships. And 250,000 tonne giants will lower transport costs from the Port of Shanghai to Los Angeles. Pinduoduo will give 50% discounts.

The Chinese already have a prototype TMSR up and running since 2023. It is rated at 2MW thermal and is located in Gansu in the Gobi Desert. See picture.

 No ventilation chimneys, no cooling towers, no cooling ponds. No need for water.

They are already planning a 10 MW or larger TMSR plant by 2030 - only FOUR years away.  I estimate that in another six years after that (2036) the Chinese will have these TMSR plants popping up all over China.  

Now here comes the scary part.  Below here is the projection for Chinese consumption of fossil fuels over the next FIVE years. I have shown this chart not too long ago. Even without TMSR reactors, Chinese oil consumption is already slowing down. The chart shows that from 2027 - 28 onwards Chinese consumption of fossil fuels will start decreasing. China has invested heavily in solar energy, wind energy, hydro and other renewables. Plus their entire motor vehicle industry is switching to EV - which is more energy efficient.

So guess what is going to happen when the Chinese begin building TMSR reactors on a larger scale throughout China - after 2030.

This picture should give you an idea.

FRIDAY NOTES (12/06/26) FROM THE QURAN - SURAH YASIN

Non Muslims can read this. Some general knowledge. Out of the 114 surahs or chapters in the Quran, chapter 36 is called Surah Yasin. This chapter has much significance because it is often recited during special occasions especially at funerals and when people visit the graves of their dearly departed. It is often recited as a prayer at the graves of the dead people.

However with the appearance of Salafism there is debate because the Salafis do not practise the reciting of the Surah Yasin at funerals or at the graves of dead people.

Of course the vast majority of non-Arab Muslims do not understand Arabic and so they do not understand what they are reciting in Arabic.

Here are a few verses from Surah Yasin (36:60-64) with English translation.

Surah Yasin (36:60-64) 

60  وَأَلَمْ أَعْهَدْ إِلَيْكُمْ يَٰبَنِيٓ ءَادَمَ أَن لَّا تَعْبُدُوا۟ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنَ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ  

61 وَأَنِ ٱعْبُدُونِى ۚ هَٰذَا صِرَٰطٌ مُّسْتَقِيمٌ  

62 وَلَقَدْ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمْ جِبِلًّۭا كَثِيرًا ۖ أَفَلَمْ تَكُونُوا۟ تَعْقِلُونَ 

63  هَٰذِهِۦ جَهَنَّمُ ٱلَّتِى كُنتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ  

64 ٱصْلَوْهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْفُرُونَ 

Here is the English translation (36:60-64)

60 Did I not enjoin upon you, O children of Adam, that you not worship Satan—indeed, he is to you a clear enemy?

61 And that you worship only Me? This is a straight path.

52 And he had already led astray from among you much of creation, so did you not use reason?

63 This is the Hellfire which you were promised.

64  Enter it today because you disbelieved.

This is part of the recitation at funerals and at the graves of the dearly departed.
