Sand stealing has been going on all over Malaysia for decades
Melaka Chief Ministers have been stealing sand since the time of Mohd Adib Mohamad Adam, Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik, Mohd Zin Abdul Ghani, Abu Zahar Ithnin, Mohd Ali Rustam, Idris Haron and Adly Zahari. This did not happen just during the time of Sulaiman Md Ali.
NO HOLDS BARRED

According to PKR Johor, Pakatan Harapan brought down the Melaka government for selfish reasons. According to Umno, they brought down the Melaka state government because the Menteri Besar has been stealing sand.
Who do you trust? PKR or Umno?
Actually, both also tembak.
Melaka Chief Ministers have been stealing sand since the time of Mohd Adib Mohamad Adam, Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik, Mohd Zin Abdul Ghani, Abu Zahar Ithnin, Mohd Ali Rustam, Idris Haron and Adly Zahari. This did not happen just during the time of Sulaiman Md Ali.
So we are talking about eight Chief Ministers over 43 years since 1978.
So, why is sand stealing only now an issue when for 43 years over eight Chief Ministers it was not an issue? Why after eight Chief Ministers over 43 years of sand stealing, suddenly this is a matter of concern to Umno Melaka?
In fact, back in the 1980s, when Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad was Prime Minister, he already spoke about sand stealing. The late Sultan of Johor also spoke out because the sand in Johor was being stolen and exported to Singapore — and both Mahathir and the Sultan were very unhappy about it.
Pakatan Harapan has also been stealing sand since they came to power. And the present Menteri Besar is also involved (and it seems he is also involved in the illegal gambling syndicates in Selangor).
Malaysia Today not only revealed this scandal but also published documents as evidence. The documents clearly show the present Menteri Besar being behind the sand stealing syndicate, but no action was taken.
