Corrupt dogs and idiots

There is much more to life than sitting comfortably in my room blogging about and focusing on myself and my emotional rants and experiences. Thats a very 'self-focussed' point of view. Today, let me talk about something that is more 'big picture' - the doings of the political elite of this country, and the ramifications for us, the little man on the street.

Instead of sitting idly on my sin-prone hands, today I will use this little space of mine to rant about something more important than....me.

As if we need any more proof, our country is run by a bunch of corrupted idiots and dogs. Let us first start off with some examples. To be VERY fair, I will ONLY use ONE incident printed in today's The Star, and not use past examples, in an attempt to minimize the amount of stupidity I could spout lyrical about:

Exhibit #1

- The operator of the CCTV in the Penang City Hall, instead of focussing on the proceedings, zoomed the camera onto the leg of a female journalist present. And held it there for a good 15 minutes. Now THAT in itself is obviously a gross breach of CCTV usage policy and a violation of her privacy and an outrage of her modesty! The reporter was dressed in a jacket AND the skirt ended below the knee - all of which are in conformance with the dress code. What kinda desperate twisted depraved sick #@$ would do that? And, the operator has not been punished, or even suspended. But wait! Thats not the best part..the best part is that the Penang Island Munincipal Council President Datuk Abu Bakar Hassan has gone on record blaming the woman and her choice of attire for instigating this shameful deed. And he even went on to give the analogy, "if we leave some meat in the open, and the cat eats it, is it the cat's fault or the meat's fault?"

OK since this is my blog, I shall break my promise. Let me (now that I am properly warmed up and getting into the spirit of things) expound on and include a few more examples of idiocy.

So with these inept incompetent jokers running the show, our country is in for a majorly shit time ahead. We have that Penang guy blaming the woman for the CCTV operator perving on her. We have some majorly incompetent, thieving, lying, conniving leaders who deceive the nice gullible rural majority and create racist issues in order to cling onto power where they can further enrich their fat selves. We have that Klang guy who built his illegal mansion, built his illegal satay stall, semuanya OK, no real big deal, nothing torn down. Years ago when we wanted to renovate and extend our kitchen an extra ONE FOOT the councillor basically told us if we did that, they will come in, and not only pull down n demolish that ONE FOOT they will also pull the whole kitchen down. And we have Samy Velu saying in Parliament something along the gist of women are like toilets. When first obtain it, look brand spanking new want to use it. After a while, looks gross n don't want to use, need to get new toilet. We have MR NAJIB waving the keris and clamouring for blood of other races. We have our MCA running dogs who keep quiet while watching their representatives and members being crucified for raising pertinent issues. We have funds denied to Chinese national schools until the rotting and termite eaten floorboards gave way under a teacher and killed him. We have honest Malay Kubang Pasu reps getting beaten up in front of their families and homes and labelled 'pengkhianat' to their race for confessing there was money politics in Mahathir's defeat. We have that good man of ethics, backbencher Shahir or Shahril, forced to resign for daring to speak the truth. We have Rafidah Aziz, in this time of regional competition, telling foreign investors, OI, IF DON'T LIKE OUR RULES, take ur money and BYEBYE. Alamak...die die.

No wonder we are dropping lower n lower in competitiveness, FDIs generated and corruption indexes. Dont you friggin get it? Its no longer about competition between races - it is a regional competition now!!! We as M'sians have to unite and not be fragmented, and compete against Vietnam, Thailand, etc. At a time when everyone is thinking how can the country get a bigger pie, our country is slapping restrictions left and right - must have X number of directors of a certain race, Y % of shareholders of a certain race etc. Don't they get it? It is not about race - it is about competency and capability! Don't look down on that race like that! I personally know A LOT A LOT very very intelligent and capable ones who definitely do not need crutches, can stand up with the best of anyone, and frankly, its an insult to them to imply they need crutches and to taint them with the same brush that automatically makes people think that some of their brethren only succeed coz of aforementioned crutches. Some of these people are extremely capable and intelligent, easily world class. For the first time, Indonesia has overtaken M'sia as a FDI destination. This is very apparent in my line of work, where many of our clients and jobs have gone to Thailand, Vietnam...

Why, since Independence, has the Sing dollar doubled compared to us when they used to be on the same level? How did Taiwan and South Korea, who were behind us, now lead us? Die ... die...

Now, with leaders like these, leading us into the new world with these policies, can you blame me for saying that our country is run by corrupted dogs and idiots?
