I have just glanced through some headlines in The Star and just cannot resist posting the following statements from some of our leaders (my comments in brackets):
MB urges poor to be creative
Don’t depend on the govt to eradicate poverty, says Ahmad Said
Kuala Terengganu: Ahmad said they should look around for success stories to emulate (look at me, suddenly become Chief Minister and creative enough to order Mercedes E Kompressor for Exco members)
Wan Ahmad: Funds not for fishing votes
Kuala Terengganu: The Rm1.6mil allocation for SRJK© Chung Hua Wei Sen building fund is not an attempt to fish for Chinese votes, said Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh.
…that community leaders requested for the money from the state government recently and the amount was approved before the death of former Kuala Terengganu MP Datuk Razali Ismail. (and we cannot wait to hand over the money till after the by-election on January 17)
Gobala issue not political, says Johari
Kuching: The barring of a PKR member of parliament from entering Sarawak is not politically motivated, said PBB deputy president Datuk Abang Johari Tun Openg.
He said there must be reasons for the state Immigration Department to deny Padang Serai MP N. Gobalakrishnan entry on Christmas Eve. (like because Anwar Ibrahim is eyeing to win Sarawak in the state elections)
How should we judge a government?
In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!
"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain
Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham
"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan
Government fed by the people
Career options
Corruption so prevalent it affects English language?
When there's too much dirt...
Prevent bullying now!
