Pak Lah's Wisdom

If any of you managed to catch the news last night then you may have heard Pak Lah's word of wisdom regarding the political situation in Malaysia. For those of you who missed it then not to worry because I will be quoting him.

Firstly, I like to point out that the way he said those things clearly shows that he is blaming all this political turmoil on the bloggers and other people.

"He said the allegations and news championing those who broke the law through SMS, blogs and YouTube were akin to treachery." Furthermore Pak Lah added that “These stories and SMS do not have any benefit. It is a deliberately attempt to create a negative perception (of the Government)." I think it him and his politicians that have brought that negative perception.

I mean seriously? Is this what is going on in his mind? He also said the the following This is not the doing of a race that wants to progress,” he said, hoping that the rakyat would not be influenced by it all." So apparently by doing this we are a race of people that do want to progress. This makes me laugh, i mean for god's sake everyone know that this is not true. We all want to progress but there so many roadblocks that progression seems impossible. Just to highlight one idea, look at the domination of the Internet by TMnet. We are so far behind the rest of the world with our 1mbps connection and most of the time that connection is far slower that what we are paying for. Why can't be have Internet connection like Singapore or Thailand where home users can get upto 10mbps. Why? I am sure that all of us knows the answer to that question.

Pak Lah goes on to say the following things by this time I can feel the fire burning in my stomach.“There is total disregard for the law and no one is giving importance to what is right and wrong any more,” he said, advising Malaysians to disregard all such attempts.Addressing staff of the Prime Minister’s Department at its monthly gathering here yesterday, Abdullah said he was also sad that the recent spate of events showed that the principles of the Rukunegara had been tarnished." So according to him we are a bunch of criminals that disregard the law and we bring shame to the country by tarnishing the principles of Rukun Negara. Who is actually doing this? its not the rakyat but in fact it is the politicians.

They are the ones that caused the political turmoil in our country now. They have forgotten their roots and their vows they made to the people. Look at the fuel price increase. I remember it as clear as the sky, two days before the price went up Pak Lah told the country that prices will remain the same until August but in fact it went up by 78 cents. The sudden and abrupt increased caused a ripple effect through-out the nation to effect the prices of food and other daily requirements. This has caused the people to feel the pain due to sudden increase of raw materials and food items. The government didn't think about this effect, they simply do it and then tell us to change our lifestyle. If he had been smart then he would have done in a few stages at least in this way he will have the support and the understanding of the people. Deep down in my heart I can feel a political up rise, a revolution coming towards Malaysia.
