The falling of the government.
If one were to watch the current political situation in Malaysia, one would wonder when it will reach the bottom. It has been falling to lowest point so far and it keeps falling and the bottom of the pit hasn’t even appeared yet. I guess this is the true meaning of the word ‘bottomless’.
If in detaining Tan Hoon Cheng because of her reporting what was said by Ahmad Ismail, then the same rational should be used to detain Mohd Khir instead of Teresa Kok. Is it because the two is from UMNO then they were spared?
The act of police is always reflected back to the government and the use of ISA by all mean showed only its political nature. I have no idea what was the government hope to achieve in doing so. Funny thing is when Syed Albar tried to reasoning the Tan Hoon Cheng arrest is for her own safety. The police should just provide her with protection if her life was threatened similar to the treatment received by Mohd Saiful. He should know better that ISA are mean for National Security only and the reason given is just unacceptable.
I first thought it is a political strategy by Barisan Nasional, but it was so dumb I would call it a political suicide. What ever hope left in Barisan Nasional is gone now until we have somebody else at the top to replace Abdullah.
Barisan Nasional government now is like ‘retak menanti belah’ (crack that would break). It is evidence that UMNO is responsible for all that happening and did not even consult other component parties. It is obvious when MCA, GERAKAN, and even Samy Vellu are voicing their disappointment. How could a coalition of parties work as a government if only one of them have the power? May be this is a sign of failure, thus desperate time always brought desperate measure.
Something ought to be done immediately. Our system is not to be blame. It has work fine during other Prime Ministers. Dr. Mahathir is right, Abdullah just not fit enough or smart enough to be let ruling for much longer, he is on the borrowed time. It is up to UMNO members to determine the fate of their party, to be champion of their own race like what they are doing now, or choose to remove Abdullah and put somebody of worthy leader of all Malaysians.
