I think AAB wants to well liked as compared with the Tun but he has neither the historical asset, integrity and clout to achieve that. He isn’t his own man and is, no less, a part of the problem. His "humility" easily turns into a sanctimonious show of religiosity.

I don’t think Pak Lah is that bad. He is just not good and this allows the people around him to maximise their abuse of his authority.

i’d agree with him wholeheartedly about the education system (i spend a great deal of time in malaysian schools).

there is a lot of truth in what he say, sadly, and i feel a sense of malaysia sliding backwards. corruption is absolutely endemic and these values are beginning to trickle right down to the ordinary guy …

A very true version of the Malaysian situation, of course the culprits will all cry foul, and in their usual xenophobic way will curse the foreigners for daring to comment on the affairs of their beloved cash cow.
The truth is nevertheless the truth, and as much as those hypocrites who plunderer the nations wealth would like it to, the truth will always prevail.
Prepare for the ballot box revolution, mark you voting papers wisely this time, shake the BN devils.

The right to a free(d) Judiciary This discussion is not going away soon … Jerai MP to Karpal: Now you are sitting in a wheel chair. God has punished you! MPs shouldn’t get away with statements like this.Michael Backman is at it again, This time on Pak Lah!I know it’s not nice when people outside our country comments (criticizes) us …maybe there’s not much love in it, but if there is truth in it, perhaps those inside the country should do something about it?
