Wa tolong lu, lu tolong wa?

(NST) – Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says he has evidence against former finance minister Tun Daim Zainuddin on the latter’s alleged abuse of position to amass wealth.

"Therefore I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that this country or that is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual enemy of England. We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow."

Anwar told reporters today that he was even willing to assist the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) into investigations on Daim, if need be.

“I have the evidence… from those years sometime ago which has been filed (shelved).

“MACC should also carry out its duties professionally in this matter. It has been going on for quite sometime, so they (MACC) shouldn’t be afraid to do their job.”

Daim three days ago had said that he welcomed investigations by MACC.

NST publishing this means the Empire Strikes Back campaign is in full force.

But why does Anwar Ibrahim only come out now to say he has the 'goods' on Daim? Why not during the last 16 years?

Is it a "Wa tolong lu, lu tolong wa" message to Najib?
