KoSong: Are you comfortable with our new Home Minister?

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

Are you comfortable with our new Home Minister?

Link

I wish he had acted as tough when dealing with those foreign terrorists in Sabah.

After the brain drain, comes the opposition drain... soon only Umnoputras left... selamanya. It is so easy to be Home Minister... after getting rid of all those who oppose.

Update:

'It appears that Khairy has been completely discredited because the Prime Minister has himself remained completely silent over the issue. Zahid has on the other hand come out with all guns blazing defending his “leave Malaysia” statement, while ignoring the “personal view” issued by Khairy.

Unfortunately Zahid’s only defence for his statement was that he wasn’t making a racist statement. Zahid obviously doesn’t take the criticisms by Malaysians seriously as we never accused him of making a racist statement here. We are accusing him of being arrogant and contemptous of the rights of Malaysians to a freer and fairer electoral system.'

Was that how Zahid defended his Ph D thesis? I wonder.

Btw, in GE 13, Zahid's constituency P75 Bagan Datok had 39,924 voters; he obtained 17,176; majority 2,108. He won 5th time (since 1995) in same safe seat. He should migrate to another constituency to test his national popularity.

When we talk about popularity, Teresa Kok (P122 Seputeh with 85,976 registered voters) is still holding the record of the MP who won with the biggest majority: 51,552!

DAP will be complaining to MCMC over blocked sites, and personally, I have yet to be able to visit SakmongkolAK47 (blogsite of new DAP MP of Raub, Dato Ariff Sabri) for the past several weeks. Seems like, 'If you can't beat them, block them... after all we have all the powers to do anything we like.'

Since taking over the Home Ministry, Zahid had arrested student activist, Adam Adli and had warned to arrest Anwar Ibrahim. We shall see to what extent he is capable of doing in going after oppositionists, instead of looking after public security which needs more urgent attention.
