talking like children

The government leaders like to say our goods are the cheapest comparing it with other countries. Yet these leaders in the Cabinet forget that foreign currencies are much higher than the ringgit. Some are 5 or 6 times higher others are 2-3 times more with the ringgit yet our salaries are not compared witht the foreign currencies! These leaders in the National Front are trying to hookwink the people but safely avoid the issue of the shrinking paycheck. Because they have the luxuries accorded to them and they think can load over the people. They are there because the people put them in office. So now with higher petrol cost other commodities will adjust the costs accordingly. Currently most hawkers have jumped into the wagon of price increase because of hike in petrol. The cylinder gas has gone up by $5 though it is a controlled item. But I dont hear the government officials say anything about it. The Cabinet strongly urged the retailers not to catch on the bangwagon. It was hot for awhile then it fused out...like other advices these ministers dished out. The business community just ignore their advice....like JAKIM acted as if they are more powerful than the Cabinet or the State Government.These officers are answerable to the government yet they do as they please. I had read reports about them and these officers were arrogant. The Federal Government never takes punitive measures to bring these officers in line. It is a pity that they kept quiet...PM Abdullah Ahmad Badawi should sack government officers who do not follow his government directives. I don't think he will do that and I am sure the government officers too believe it so. Now the government has lost its direction.................The leaders making statements and comparisons without realizing that they have made themselves looking like children '16As is not better than 15As' and the works minister said that check and balances are put in place to look into shoddy work....Is he telling the people that before nothing is checked? He is reaching 70 years old and it is time he should retire before he talks nonsense again. And Dr Chua didnt want to take off ReNue on the shelves when the problem surface in Singapore claiming that nothing was happening here. Then a few days ago he ordered it to take off the shelves when complaints were received about the product affecting the users' eyes. Didn't he read medical report and about people's suffering using the product?

The government has lost its direction. I don't know who is running the country. Now we have the PM Abdullah Ahmad Badawi urged the people not to question $4.4 billion saving a year....on what the government want to do with it. On one hand he wants to be transparent and accountable than on his own admission he wants to keep it in secret. I wish he reads his own book again on Islam Hadhari...so that he doesnt have to make contrary statements..The Auditor General always report the mismanagment and poor accounting standards in running the funding in most of the government agencies. Some never prepare financial accounts....it is a shame that even ministers never take an interest in the agencies under their control. So the PM wants us not to question where the monies go.................IT IS TIME CHANGE MUST ARRIVE!!

Good morning Malaysia....the country I love has lost its direction for now.....
