If there are sufficient laws to regulate the banks, then why do you think that MAS and the Prime Minister are helpless in my case against the banks when I first brought up the said matter as far back as March 2003 and until today there is still no solution to the caseThomas Lohhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01083905518710526829noreply@blogger.com
