Malaysia is in crisis mode.
Five-year-old Sharlinie Mohd Nashar went missing. Tenggaroh assemlyman S. Krishnasamy was assassinated.
On the two separate incidents, Prime Minister cum Internal Security Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi made separate pleas.
"The abductor must repent amidst the public outrage and return Sharlinie to her parents," he said when asked by reporters on his personal appeal over the disappearance of the girl since Wednesday.
Next, he expressed shock over the murder of the assemblyman.
"I am shocked and saddened by the killing of Datuk Krishnasamy. This is a cruel and despicable act," he told Bernama.
Before that, Pak Lah’s dazed "What’s going on? Why is it so high?" reaction to the latest crime index, where blogger Rocky Bru’s calls upon Pak Lah to give up the Internal Security Ministry portfolio or it might endanger Malaysia’s public safety level in wake of rising crime rate.
Having said all these, The Star today reports that the PM went to Madrid to explain how Malaysia was able to bridge the religious and racial gaps among its people?
What a disgraceful leadership, if you ask me what’s the best sentence to describe the current situation in Malaysia.

With regards to your last paragraph, I would rather say incompetent.
Bad-awi has no moral right to even speak:
If what Loh Mui Fah said was true, there are many questions can be asked:
- Why did the PM mum over Loh’s letter and his appeal for protection?
- Same question to Tan Sri Haidar who had insisted that nobody came forward to offer information, why did he keep silent?
- What was the role of the ACA? Did the ACA act on the tip off from VK Lingam?
In short, it is obvious that the authorities knew that the clip was genuine and have already had the means to tract down the maker of the video not long after Anwar released the clip.
While in actual fact, the members of the investigation panel need no further evidence on the authenticity of the clip.
Even when the Royal Commission was formed, Tan Sri Haidar continued to be silent on the identity of the video maker. If Mr Loh Mui Fah did not voluntarily present himself to the public, I wonder he would ever be called for the inquiry.

He is far too busy arresting human rights protestors and touring the world to tell about Malaysia’s peaceful tolerance to pay attention to something as petty as crime.

Well , I agree that the crime rate has gone very high but I think that Pak Lah cannot be made responsible for other people’s mistake and wrongdoing.
Disgraceful leadership = Disgraceful voters
RPK says Bad-awi is actually pretending to be stupid whilst acting very cunning. Others say he is darn stupid.
IMO he is both but being either according to the situation.
W A N T or N O T?
