Assalamu ‘alaikom Sdr Anwar,
Mengapa kah Saudara yang banyak dijemput kesana kemari untuk memberi ucapkan dalam pelbagai Forum yang menyentuh pelbagi isu?
Saya sarankan Sdr membantu mengharumkan nama Malaysia (yang serba boleh), dengan mencadangkan kepada pihak penganjur Forum yang akan datang, supaya mereka menjemput Menteri Malaysia, khususnya Nazri Aziz dan ZAM. Merekalah yang amat petah bercakap!
Saya yakin, seluruh dunia akan terpegun dengan apa juga isu yang dikupaskan oleh mereka berdua!
