Very Nice Taxi Driver
This is a magnificent noir fantasy about the daily struggles of Bangla Nepalindon, the only known citizen who also legally owns and drives his own taxi. He refuses to employ illegal immigrants or farm out his cab to part-time locals to supplement his income. Bangla NI daily astounds his passengers by switching on the lawfully calibrated taxi meter and charging them EXACTLY according to it, taking the shortest routes, dropping them off at their exact destinations or the nearest taxi stand, switching on the car radio only at customers’ request, issuing tax valid receipts and bidding them farewell with a hearty “shukria” and smile after dropping them off!! His clean taxi puts to shame the city’s 20,000 dirty public cabs which are said to be worse than public toilets and whose licences have been cornered by a Minister who denies it when questioned in Parliament.
Then one fine day, while plying the back lanes of Butterworth, Bangla NI stumbles across Shanghai Rose Chan, a PRC English Language student registered at Everise Best Emperor Shih Huang Ti English College of Excellence. Rose is harassed by a group of ne’er do well maintenance workers from the bankrupt local Penang Ferry Service Corporation. Bangla NI, a morally upright citizen to a fault is enraged and kills all the ferry workers in a massive shootout. He falls in love with Rose in the backseat of his taxicab on the way to his 1 room bedsitter where he sequesters her for her own safety lest she be arrested by the authorities and incarcerated under the ISA or deported, which would be a fate worse than death. There, he is thunderstruck and dumbfounded to discover that Rose is not exactly a Chinese student of English even though her oral skills are outstanding for one so young and innocent. She is a China Doll. They live happily ever after.

The Curious Case of Many Good Men
At a Royal Commission of Inquiry, a mousy, vindictive, rebuffed, confirmed spinster lesbian secretary, Saucy Chili Padi Sita, falsely accuses her lawyer employer Ghandhi Mandela Lingam of subverting the true course of justice by bribing a Chief Justice and 11 other Judges of the Federal Court. Doctored airline tickets, fake cheque book stubs, touched up photographs of the CJ and Justices holidaying at the Auckland Zoo and in chalets and nightclubs in Geneva are tendered at the RCI and posted scurrilously on the internet.
Watch the courtroom drama unfold as Ghandhi Mandela Lingam corretcly, corretcly, corretcly, aided and abetted by lone courageous Attorney General Ganesh Patel, battles inhuman odds to clear his name and that of the many good men, the justices. In a climactic courtroom scene the verdict is received in an atmosphere of stunned silence, disbelief and awe as Ghandhi Mandela Lingam thunders “You can’t handle the truth! We didn't do anything wrong. We not only have some of the finest lawyers in this country, we also have some judges money alone cannot buy - the BEST kind!!” The justices are reborn and rejuvenated as they once again go about their duties with Einstein child like curiosity and wonder!

A Streetcar Named Desireroton
Local car co Desireroton Motors faces Chapter 11 closure of its monopoly business. Desireroton Motors Founder and CEO, Mahaleela Kutty Firaun Arif then plays his brilliant ace in the hole, the AP (Approved Permit) card to thwart stiff Japanese, German, American and Italian attempts to re-colonize the local motor industry and the nation.
But despite strict closed open negotiated tender procedures all the AP’s (sold at $40,000 per whack) are colonized by 4 local Auto Czars due to a slight oversight by the Ministry of Transport which scurrilously shifts blame to a totally innocent Minister. Watch tears the size of crocodiles overflow as the embattled Minister is eventually sacked and then demonstrates the tenacity of a Virgin Iron Lady to clear her name in this moving human interest story of a world kelisaconspiracy, big biz and sex discrimination of second among equals!!

MURDERED IN MALAYSIA: THE ALTANTUYA STORY BY E.S. SHANKAR
With foreword by Clare Rewcastle-Brown of Sarawak Report.
Dear Readers,
Have you read the explosive new 2017 ebook "Murdered In Malaysia: The Altantuya Story" yet? The mystery surrounding the murder of Mongolian model Altantuya Sharriibuu has long troubled Malaysia and E.S Shankar's new book sheds new light on many unanswered questions.
Download the 800 page ebook at https://store.bookbaby.com/book/Murdered-in-Malaysia-The-Altantuya-Story for only US$0.99 cents and encourage your friends too!
Description
This is the A-Z of the 2006 murder by C4 plastic explosives of Mongolian national Altantuya who became embroiled in the Malaysian government's US$2.3 billion Scorpene Stealth Submarines procurement contract with France.
Author E.S. Shankar makes it clear that the slaying of Altantuya Shaariibuu was not an unpremeditated execution carried out by two "rogue" cops, who had no motive whatsoever to kill her. Till today, the police, attorney-general and government have refused to investigate the case to establish who gave the orders to kill Altantuya, while the high court acquitted the one person who did have such a motive, without calling for his defense.
This case represents one of the most shocking examples of government interference in the judiciary in Malaysian legal history. It bodes ill for the already tattered and torn image and reputation of those in the highest echelons of the police force, judiciary and the Executive branch of the Malaysian government.
In the book's final chapter modeled after the famous 1898 expose 'J'accuse' by Émile Zola, E.S. Shankar lays firmly the blame for a massive cover-up right at the door-step of Malaysia's prime minister Najib Tun Razak and what he has branded, as his government of thieves.
About The Author

Shankar is a Malaysian writer and blogger who has previously authored ‘Let Us Now With Thankfulness’, a memoir of his schooldays, and ‘Tiger Isle:A Government of Thieves’, a satire/fiction novel about corruption in Malaysia published by Gerakbudaya Enterprise.

BOOK REVIEW
Reviewed by Romuald Dzemo for Readers' Favorite
Murdered In Malaysia: The Altantuya Story by E.S. Shankar is a true crime tale that explores the 2006 murder of the twenty-eight-year-old Mongolian Altantuya. Who actually killed this brilliant woman and for what reason? Much has been made of the murder and questions raised with no satisfactory answers, but in this spellbinding true crime tale, the author unveils facts that have been covered up, hidden in the darkness of the corrupt nature of the government. The author offers stunning arguments and evidence that the murder of the pregnant young woman was due to the fact that she became involved in the US $1 billion acquisition of submarines from France by the Malaysian Navy and the Defense minister.
In this book, the author takes a deep, clinical look at the evil that plagues many developing countries and the role that the French government plays in fueling political tensions and chaos in many countries across the world for their political and economic interests. This is a story that talks about one of the gravest abuses of power, where the defenseless innocents are shut up with gunshots and explosives, while those who give the sinister orders walk away free.
Murdered In Malaysia: The Altantuya Story is a well-researched account of murder, a story that reads like fiction but that has many elements of truth in it. The confidence with which the author writes is indicative of the fact that he has done his homework well. It is a powerful, unmitigated chastisement of corrupt political institutions, a book that beautifully and brilliantly showcases the political and cultural landscapes of Malaysia. Readers will be enticed by the author’s storytelling skills, his confident style of writing, and the logic that comes across clearly through the writing. I couldn’t put it down.
GREATEST QUOTES OF 2012/2013
1. Exercising democratic rights could place society in a never-ending vicious cycle of instability and insecurity.
2.We are doing the right thing if everybody is unhappy, which means you have to give up something . . . You cannot say this is my right, I must get it. Then others will say they want their rights, too.
3. Racialism is fine, but not racism. This is not spin-doctoring.
- Dr. Mahathir Mohamad
'TIGER ISLE-A GOVERNMENT OF THIEVES' by E.S. SHANKAR
SYNOPSIS OF 'TIGER ISLE - A GOVERNMENT OF THIEVES' by E.S. SHANKAR
Tiger Isle or Pulipore, the corruption capital of the world that mysteriously emerged from the depths of the waters of South East Asia in 200 CE, spirals towards its tipping point in 2012.
Hundreds of billions of dollars of cost over-inflated defence and other government procurement and infrastructure development contracts, national projects “that MUST not fail, ever” and the cosy “win-win” relationships between government and fraudtrepreneur crony “corpo-rat captains of industry”, send Tiger Isle hurtling towards the precipice of third world status and bankruptcy.
Tiger Isle’s evil and despotic President Kapalin plays every card, from race to Tigerist religion to hounding his political nemesis, Maitreya, with trumped-up rape and sodomy charges, to cling on to power. Failure is not an option, as Kapalin and his ambitious and self-promoting wife, expensive Birkin handbag toting ‘Big Porka’ Natasha, are also implicated in the cover-up of the gruesome murder of Tiger Isle’s Oscar-winning actress, dynamited to bits in a secluded forest.
Now, government auditor Rekha and her seven best friends race against time and the threat of a prophecy being fulfilled to save Tiger Isle and its 30 million inhabitants from annihilation, even as Kapalin plots and embarks upon apocalyptic plans that could prove to be the harbinger of World War III.
On the horizon, Rekha, married and a mother of two, sees the looming menace and racist aims of Kapalin’s mentor, bitter ex-President Bhairav, who stirs up extremist and right-wing Tigerist sentiments to undermine Kapalin and replace him with his own son as President.
The fate of a nation hangs in the balance as Rekha prepares for battle with her famous cry of “We are all of One Race, the Human Race.”
Mixing suspense with humor and pathos, E.S. Shankar’s superbly written, original and stunning debut novel ‘TIGER ISLE – A GOVERNMENT OF THIEVES’ is a classic story of endemic corruption in South East Asia and its various frightening totalitarian and racist regimes that pose as benign multi-racial, multi-religious, multi-ethnic and multi-cultural democracies.
“A great read simply for its thrilling plot and wonderfully-imagined setting, but an even better one if you're interested in Malaysian/ South East Asian politics & history.” S.Ganesan.
