Incoherence of the Politicians

Uzumaki Naruto

Stop corruption! Good governance! Freedom of speech! Accountability!, Equality! Social Justice! Transparency!…….bla, bla, bla.

Who lets the dogs out? Woof,..woof,..woof,..woof…woof….

There’s not much one can expect from dogs like chiwawas or chihuahas and the likes. Indeed they can be annoyingly loud but, pathetically ineffective or useless maybe. While they bark, the crooks steal the money and the boss of the house sleeps.

For once they should quit barking and woofing their rhetorical craps and start using their brains. Have a look at the data below;



From the data, it can be concluded that overall Malaysia is still doing okay. Although the HDI value registers improvement, Malaysia’s HDI rank slides down 2 notches. This means that Malaysia is improving but at a slow pace. The same goes with Corruption Perception Index. Although it shows that Malaysia’s rank slides down to 44th place but still index wise Malaysia has improved slightly.

Statistically, Malaysia sees an increase in crime rate. However not to forget that the influx of immigrants and crimes related among immigrants also contribute to the number. In other words the direct affect of the rising crime rate to Malaysians is relatively low.

To sum it up, the data construe to the point that Malaysia is in fact improving.

All this translate to the fact that Malaysia as a whole in a general sense is doing okay under the present administration. This would mean that the collective perception of Malaysians would feel that the current administration has done a fairly good job.

So the best part is this; in this coming General Election, soon after the result is announced – we will hear the usual mindless barking and woofing of the dogs blaming the ghosts and SPR for their miserable fate.

The ‘misery’ ghosts of Ijok will come back to haunt them (Oppositions).


Aspirations of the People.

It has been and will always be every Malaysians’ aspiration to have a good, fair, well managed and strong government taking care of the Nation’s well being for the betterment of its present and future generations.

As shown in above data, it is evident that the BN as a government is making an improvement in building Malaysia a better place for all. In a way they are improving themselves. But as in politics; power and money can’t be separated. There will always be greedy crooks doing hanky panky for selfish reasons.

If BN doesn’t seem to be doing enough improvement and rectification in certain areas; a strong and effective Opposition could do the trick. Strong opposition would make a good watchdog to constantly do the checking and balancing in pushing the BN on the right track.

But sadly Malaysia is seriously lacking that. The reality is this - the Oppositions are ineffective and inherently incompetent. They can never actually work together because they never trust each other. They share nothing in common accept for hypocrisy.

Take a brief look into the opposition camp.


PAS – An Islamic political party runs by conservative/orthodox religionists.

Pas ultimate objective is to establish a theocratic state. In actuality they are with the ambition to relive and establish Middle Ages Islamic ideals into present day 21st century Malaysia. Impressive thinking is it not?

PAS and its supporters have this crazy idea of believing that once the Nation is governed and guided by religious leaders and theocracy is the law of the land – corruption would steadily decline and the Nation and its people would progress dynamically.

It would be pointless to reason with religionists with this mindset on how unreasonable such idea is. This is because it is simply impossible to reason with the unreasonable. Perhaps it would be better off putting the figures down for them to see.

Below is the HDI and CPI data for oil rich Islamic Republic of Iran and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in comparison to Malaysia.



Factually, it is obvious that the HDI for both countries are very low (despite their wealth) in comparison to Malaysia. The Corruption Perception Index shows that they have serious corruption problems.

This would make one wonders why would certain groups strive to transform present day 21st century Malaysia into becoming the middle ages’ theocratic state? Why would certain groups want to bring the rest of progressive Malaysians to regress along with them? This just doesn’t make sense.

The fact is they are totally incoherent.


DAP – Perceived by many as a race based political party but proudly carries the tag line ‘Malaysian Malaysia’.

This is perfect example of Malaysia ‘boleh’. Anything goes – ‘cincai kira lah’.

Besides ‘Malaysian Malaysia’ there is also this call for ‘Bangsa Malaysia’. No doubt that all these are absolutely good ideas. In order to achieve this goal, logically it would be wise to set up a single Educational school system for all.

Conversely, DAP is so adamant in preserving vernacular school system which itself is racially segregating. Perhaps they are more interested to ‘out-Chinese’ the MCA rather than focus on their objective of Malaysian Malaysia.

This is the reason why they can ‘easily’ get the ‘overwhelming’ support from the non-Chinese and becoming a ‘truly’ color blind multi-racial political organization. Amazingly brilliant strategy on their part is it not?

Some say with respect to certain DAP leader; DAP literally means ‘DAP Aku Punya’. However some say DAP means ‘Daddy Aku Punya’. Whatever it is, people are free to speculate.

Perhaps it is high time for DAP to do away with its ‘Dinosaur Aged Politics’ and maybe together with the dinosaur too, why not?


PKR – A party that are made up of opportunists who have missed their opportunity.

There is no need to say much about this political organization. It is dying a natural death. The reason for this is, the very foundation of its existence is based on emotional objectives – for Anwar Ibrahim.

Many say that if Anwar were truthful, he should have resigned when Mahathir asked him to in 1998. That would have saved Malaysia the chaos from the entire unnecessary political stunt by both sides. Maybe Anwar might have had his own selfish reasons in doing what he did.

PKR (Keadilan) used to have quite a number of sincere young loyalists who would spend their own money fighting for the cause they believed in. Obviously many have left the party soon after they learned the hard truth about the kind of people running the organization.

As the well is drying out, the ‘suckers’ would scramble around looking for any well for the opportunity to suck. These suckers are pure selfish hypocrites.


Conclusions.

Weak, ineffective and incompetent oppositions would have adverse impact to the Nation in the long run. The Oppositions have always intellectualized their disadvantage mainly because they are not getting enough support from the people (beside the ghosts stories). Some of the hardcore pro-opposition intellectuals even blame the people for they see as the lack critical thinking in casting their votes wisely. (This is an outright insult to Malaysians in general).

All this blame game and vicious insult to the people show their desperate attempt in diverting the truth. They refused to accept the fact that the majority doesn’t support/vote them because they are incoherent – and that is why they are weak, ineffective and inherently incompetent.

A single party Opposition would definitely be stronger than the incoherent political orgy of the wobbly tri-party opposition. A ‘pitbull’ is definitely better, stronger and effective than three pathetic species of chiwawas or chihuahas and the likes. However, the idea of the Oppositions resolving their differences and evolve into a single party is akin to George Bush embracing Islam and join Osama ben Laden in Afghanistan.

Perhaps the best alternative solution would be for the BN to shape up by shedding off those ugly parasitic fats and put on lean clean muscles and shoot for zero opposition. Woof out!


End.
