COMMITTEE OH COMMITTEE AGAIN

The Transport Ministry should haul up the departmental head for the Mersing tragedy. Somebody wasnt doing a job entrusted therein. Two inspectors suspended from duty. Is that all to it? ACA, I have commented before, never takes the pro-active procedures. The officers sit and wait until somebody makes a report or until direct to do so. Why can't they take their own initiative to investigate all the agencies in the government? They can go to the ground, talk to the people in the coffee shops, restaurants or mamak stalls and I am sure the officers will get many tips of what are happening in the government agencies and companies too. Like the case of Istana Zakaria............ACA hasnt started any investigation on the project and of how it is funded. Building without approvals and when it was discovered and reported then he only duly submitted his plans for the 'istana zakaria' to the authority for approval. Now it had been approved. Was there a fine on it? Why there is a double standard in this procefure? When ordinary folks put up simple structures, the authority immediately tear it down by saying there is no approval given. But Zakaria Deros wasnt. Will ACA go to investigate? Will ACA investigate the PKFR fiasco? I doubt it very much. There are many episodes that the ACA should investigate without waiting for the people to make reports. As long as the officers go underground, find some information, then they should visit the premises and locate the personnel mentioned in their snooping around in mamak stalls............Or the government leaders use to say 'tak cukup orang dipejabat' but they have alot of times going to meeting after meeting. Like the PM setup committe after committee for each episode........for what purposes then? Looking good? Proper accounting? The PM never and shall not take action at all. Because he is sleeping on his job! Sigh.
