Wan Farid: What's the difference 20 or 50 minutes
What's the difference Rm1.92 or Rm2.70
It has been political ‘cat and mouse’ game between the opposition and the government for the past few weeks.
Somehow, the people that our PM had assigned to carry out the duties, had turned out to be liabilities to him rather than help, to secure more confidence in his government which had been badly scarred since the 12th general election, in march this year.
If the main-stream-media reports were to be believed, which we normally thought to be biased on the government side, than this indeed convinced the Malaysians more than ever that we had inherited in government, a bunch a no hopers, lack in focus and patience but full of arrogance and still convinced than it is not their own doings that had caused the Malaysians to be disillusion to them. It may perhaps hit the dead nail to the present ruling coalition.
Let us start with the debate between Anwar and Shabery.
The subject matter was on oil price increment and the opposition said that they would be able to reduce it if they were in government.
The government side in fact had lots of points to rebut this. One of which is perhaps to change the mentality of Malaysians not to be wasteful on limited resources and the perennial expected price subsidy attitude.
This was good forum for the government to lay their case and thrush out any lingering doubts that may be in the Malaysian minds. But no, instead of having an intelligent debate from the government, it had turned out to be a history lesson and accusations on its opponent, which were totally out of the subject matter of this debate.
While the opposition, represented by Anwar, gave the reasons on how they are able to do it and the benefits it brings.
If our PM still had full trust on such minister, I am sad on the prolonged consequences to our beloved nation.
We know very well that the opposition is doing what they can, to expose the weaknesses of the government and the subject is doing a splendid job to help them.
Such weaknesses are already inherent, to be exploited and the government just do not have the ability to change, it is already too ingrained.
It is becoming clearer by the day, that we indeed need a complete change, nothing can be worse than what we had, that is what the government seems to be telling its people from its actions. What a pity!
Another example, as reported by MSM, the CID police branch arrested the opposition leader before the deadline. The deadline was widely published by media and from the horse’s mouth itself.
Though they may not be wrong in doing this, but it shows the arrogance and impatience of our police force, which already had suffered in the past, out of their own doing. Do they simply lack intelligence and common sense?It only shows how capable they are in handling highly charged cases and in protecting the image of Malaysia by taking actions on presumptions. They are just dangerous!
Worse yet, our deputy in Home Ministry said what is the difference in 20 to 50 minutes. Now, such attitude only further convinces the Malaysians that our government just cannot keep a promise. It is just not in their habit.
These people in power have to change before the Malaysians change them!But then again….. don’t waste my time, they are just incorrigible!
