Anwar Met Tengku Razaleigh

Anwar: Assalammualaikum Yang Mulia Tengku.

Kuli: Salam, OH, Datuk Seri Anwar, fancy meeting you here on the same flight.

Anwar: Yes, I was surprised too. It seems that everywhere I go I am bound to meet someone heading for the same destination.

Kuli: After all, Malaysia is a small country, these things are bound to happen.

Anwar: Yes, I agree with you, and they are expected to happen when you are on an important mission.

Kuli: Important mission? How important is that?

Anwar: Why, you look very interested?

Kuli: No, no, just that, you know I am quite a well-known man so I know people, maybe I can get someone to assist you. We may not be in the same camp but we do know each other.

Anwar: Oh, thanks a lot for the thought, I think I know enough people in Sabah to get through this very-very important mission of mine.

Kuli: No Anwar, I insist, I want to help you. I can get someone ready at the airport to assist you in any way you want.

Anwar: It's ok Tengku, you are so kind. Jeffrey is at the airport to meet me and he is a Sabahan, I am sure he knows his way around.

Kuli: Yes, but he is opposition, he can't help you as much as someone who is government can.

Anwar: Yes, you are right there but I am only going to meet some people at a specific place for some important talks, that's all, so I really don't need any assistance.

Kuli: I am just trying to help you know.

Anwar: I am sure you are. Are you going to Sabah on business?

Kuli: No, no, just attending a friend's birthday party. You said you are meeting some people, who are they? How Many?

Anwar: Why Tengku?

Kuli: Maybe I can get you a better place, more comfortable for you and your friends?

Anwar: Oh, I think the place we got is comfortable enough for the 50 or so of us.

Kuli: What 50? I thought only 30, er, er, I mean, I thought in Sabah they only have places with facilities for about 30 people. Who are they? Are all of them from Sabah?

Anwar: Oh, old friends, some from Sabah, some Sarawak and some from Semenanjung.

Kuli: From semenanjung also? Ooops, I spilled my coffee.

Anwar: I never knew you to be this careless Tengku. I think I better not disturb you ...

Kuli: No, no you are not disturbing me at all, in fact I love the company. Please, please stay.

Anwar: Oh, ok. Nice of you. So this friend of yours, the one whose birthday you are attending, is he someone I know?

Kuli: What friend? What birthday? .... Oh, oh, yes, that friend, no you don't know him. A Kelantan man, working here in Sabah. Er, These people you are going to meet, are all of them politicians?

Anwar: I am a full time politician so I do meet a lot of politicians. Yes, they are, in fact they are all MPs.

Kuli: Oops, I spilled my coffee again, er, er PR MPs? Why meet your PR MPs here in Sabah?

Anwar: No, they are not PR MPs. They are BN MPs.

Kuli: BN MPs? Er, why are you meeting BN MPs?

Anwar: The crossover.

Kuli: Are you serious Anwar?

Anwar: Yes, dead serious.

Kuli: You already got about 50? Some of them are from Semenanjung?

Anwar: No, I was just pulling your legs, I knew you were fishing so I just tugged at your bait a bit.

Kuli: Do you have enough?

Anwar: Oh, I should say so. Yes, I have enough.

Kuli: When then?

Anwar: When what? The meeting?

Kuli: No, when would you all act?

Anwar: Aaah, that is privilege information, I am sure you know I can't reveal that. Ah! Tengku, I have to get back to my seat, Khairy must be anxiously waiting for me.

Kuli: What? Khairy is with you, oops, there goes my coffee again.

Anwar: Ha, gotcha. No, Azizah. Okay see you then, Assalammualaikum.

Kuli: Ah, Anwar, do you by any chance need someone experienced in Finance and Trade?
