Noh Omar on foreigners: I was misunderstood!

[UPDATED VERSION] Maxis SMS alert at 4:18pm.
Deputy Internal Security Minister Noh Omar said his statement yesterday about asking foreigners to go back was misunderstood. He also apologized.
Oh I see, misunderstood again.
And I hope you see what I see too.
Reader Steve, who is disappointed with Noh’s "misunderstood" statement, which appears on the frontpage lead of BBC’s Asia Pacific section, has this to tell, minus the England-style vocabulary but the meaning behind it that matters.
Normally have to die many ppl baru can appear there, but Malaysia no need to die anyone also can appear.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t feel proud at all.

What’s next after Noh shot his own foot? It’s beginning to look like a circus.
The quicker Pak Lah solves this the quicker he gets Malaysia out of this
embarassment. The world is smaller today as a result of the internet.
The whole world is watching and our DIGP and then Noh goes around and
messes up again and again. The less said the better for now.

i guess, noh’s statement is more destructive than the stripping incident itself

This is when you have a politician whose mouth is faster than this brain. He shouldn’t even supposed to think about it esp in such tense times. After saying such a statement and then tell the public that we misunderstood him is totally unacceptable. Can I just call him shallow and then tell him again that he misunderstood my statement because what I am really saying is that his puddle of water in front of him is shallow.
And once again I am sadden by the fact that this country is run such incapable ‘leader’ who cannot even keep his words straight

This incident proved Abdullah is not a good leader, again.
All the culprits do not have to pay for their actions that did serious damage to the imej and economy of this country.
And the headlines this morning is Abdullah instructed the police force to arrest all the 50K(which is a wrong figure)Chinese national illegal imigrants in Malaysia. Good PR? bunch of no brainers.
What about hundred thousands of indon illegal imigrants ? give them IC?

[…] Minus the "I was misquoted" minister, we still have deputy ministers who talk sense. […]

[…] With all the measures above to cover the damage done, however is this a lesson well learned by the Deputy Minister? […]

[…] The insignificant Deputy Internal Security Minister Noh Omar, who has faced public critism as Deputy Internal Security Minister, was made new Deputy Education Minister. […]
