George Soros is funded the documentary about this

PETALING JAYA: The Kleptocrats, a documentary on the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal, has made its debut this week at the 2018 Doc NYC, an annual documentary festival.

Directed by Britons Sam Hobkinson and Havana Marking, the 86-minute documentary tells the story of the scandal and those connected to it, including former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, businessman and now fugitive Jho Taek Low, and Hollywood celebrity Leonardo DiCaprio.

It also follows the investigations conducted by journalists from publications such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and The Hollywood Reporter, who worked to uncover the scandal.

In a review on Screendaily, film critic Allan Hunter wrote that “interviews with (then-opposition) politician Tony Pua, political cartoonist Zunar and activist (now MP) Maria Chin Abdullah remind us that a great story was also a national tragedy.

The executive producers of the documentary include Alex Soros, the son of billionaire George Soros.

this comment on a Yale Blog claims the 1mdb investigation was started by the corrupt Obama/Clinton DOJ w/help from Soros' Open Society Foundation

Is this a counter narrative, or is this Malaysia thing a justification for regime change?

Roland Fong AUGUST 15, 2017 AT 4:20 AM I am somewhat surprised that an institution such as Yale would risk its reputation by publishing such an article which has no foundation in the truth. It repeats allegations which the DoJ under a discredited administration (under Hillary Clinton and Obama) pursued on behalf of the Clinton Global Initiative and George Soros’s open societies Regime Change initiative of which Bersih and others like them in Malaysia are recipients of their generous funding.

Firstly and most important of all the allegations is the allegation of money laundering and its nexus to the prime minister and other Malaysian officials in charge of the 1MDB fund. Why would they have to launder the money if they are so powerful and ready to abuse that power? Could they not have simply issued invoices for investments fictitious or real against 1MDb and then taken the money against those invoices.

Money laundering at this level does not require any sophisticated plan. It is off the shelf stuff that many including the US Central Intelligence Agency often uses in order to shift money throughout the world for their clandestine operations.

Stranger still, the US using the over reach in international law supported by their military might, appears to appropriate to itself the jurisdiction of a country whose government refused to kow tow to the ambitious Clinton Global Initiative and its coffers to elect a failed HIllary Clinton into the US presidency.

Thus far apart from its far reaching powers domestically to seize the assets of anyone without proof of wrong doing, the DoJ has showed no admissible evidence of any wrong doing by the Malaysian government which could trigger its rights under any law other than the kleptocracy initiative (not applicable in Malaysia) to do anything other than to pillage the assets of a sovereign nation.

Perhaps we ought to wait till a competent court within the USA has the courage to bring Hillary and people like Loretta Lynch to justice. Then we will truly know why the swamp needs to be drained.

@letsdothis3

you think this Richard fong is attempting to control the narrative as well?

the points about the Obama DOJ (lynch) beginning the investigation/first seizing the assets is confusing.

why would Obama's doj initiate an investigation that would later implicate him?

Since 2007, Bersih, an association of NGOs calling itself the Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections, staged three street protests in which thousands of yellow-clad demonstrators took to the streets in Kuala Lumpur demanding electoral reform. After coming under heavy scrutiny for obfuscating funding sources, Bersih coalition leader Ambiga Sreenevasan admitted that her organization receives funding from the National Democratic Institute and the Open Society Institute. Sreenevasan herself has been the recipient of the US State Department’s Award for International Women of Courage, and was present in Washington DC in 2009 to receive the award directly from the hands of Michelle Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. While Sreenevasan’s organization claimed to be non-partisan and apolitical, members of Malaysia’s political opposition openly endorsed the movement, and some were even present at the demonstrations.

This looks more and more like an operation to me.
