    That’s the trouble, some pinoys will jump into conclusion first before finding out the facts and details,

    Now the report states that he isnt a Malaysian but a Filipino citizen, when all the while some of us would smear that Malaysians are here only to rob Filipinos

    The truth si there are good and bad in every nationaltiy and race.

    Law enforcement done in Malaysia – with the Philippines as kibitzer.

    He thought he could take a safe refuge in Malaysia but he made one big mistake, He did not take note that the Malaysia  interpol serious crime division is internationally ranked among the best when it comes to solving serious crime.
     

    Crime statistic index showed their serious crime divison solved 85% serious crime in the country
    Malaysia is definitely not a safe haven for high profile criminals to seek refuge.
