Resharing this as there are still many zombies that still believe that Rosmah saved to buy a RM24mil diamond ring.

The truth is, she didn't save to buy the ring as that news report being circulated saying she said that was an edited picture of a Utusan front-page. Question you should ask is that has anyone actually ever seen a physical copy of that Utusan Malaysia frontpage with her "saving since young to buy ring quote"?

Secondly, she didn't actually buy it but it was for viewing by her in-laws from Kazakhstan (who are linked to their president) and the ring was returned back to the USA after that as stated in the video statement from the US sellers. The link to that video is in the article shared below.

This is another example of online propaganda and downright lies being widely-spread to incite hatred against certain people.

 up until today, many people are still convinced that PM Najib's wife Rosmah actually bought a big cincin worth RM27million (some spin it to even say it is US$27million so that even sounds even more sensational)
- more ridiculously, these people even totally believed the story that Rosmah "saved money from young" to buy the ring
- these people are probably the same people who until yesterday believed there were 40k Banglas and Blackouts - which Bersih has already denied there were any in their Pemantau report

- As you can see, the famous photo of an alleged Utusan Malaysia article phone page saying that Rosmah's excuse is that she saved money from young to buy the ring is clearly an amateurish edit of an existing Utusan Malaysia article.
- If we actually think logically, Utusan would have been incredibly foolish to print something like this - much less on the front page. (plus Rosmah would have been incredibly naive to have said something like that)

- therefore, please do not simply believe what you read on the Internet - even if there are photos and a million shares and a zillion likes. If there are, there is a very high chance that the article is probably a fake.

- anyway there is a youtube video explaining the ring controversy by a very senior executive of Jacob and Co, the company that supposedly sold the ring.

- anyway, in a quick summary of that video: The ring was indeed sent to the PM's official residence for viewing by the mother-in-law of Rosmah's daughter who was staying over with Rosmah at that time. The Mother-in-law is a family member of Kazakhstan's ruling president. Eventually, no sale was made and the ring was sent back to Jacob and Co within a month.
