I MUST say the action, inaction, behaviour and words of the MCA leaders recently certainly display consistency and political maturity in preparing for their future after the next general election.
I noticed that the common trait of MCA leaders is to utter without using their brain, so much so they appear to be preparing to become federal Opposition politicians. Or worse still, the MCA leaders continue to insult the intelligence of Malaysians.
Take for example, the highway toll collection issue in the country.
Just because, under tremendous political pressure, the lame duck prime minister Najib Abdul Razak halved the Cheras-Kajang toll collection (not abolish as the pro-Barisan Nasional media tries to project), Federal Territory MCA Youth chief Senator Chew Lian Keng quickly seized the opportunity to bootlick so as to enhance his political future in BN.
Chew said in a statement: “While BN keeps its promise to abolish tolls (if so, why are we still paying RM1.90 to use the Cheras-Kajang Highway?), Penangites are still living in a dream thanks to (Penang Chief Minister Lim) Guan Eng.
“I fully support the announcement by Prime Minister Dato’ Sri Najib Razak regarding the abolishment of the RM1 charge at the 9th Mile toll plaza towards Kuala Lumpur and the 90 cent charge at the 11th Mile toll plaza towards Kajang along the Cheras-Kajang Highway. Besides that, I also wonder when is Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng going to abolish the Sungai Nyior toll and the Penang Bridge toll as previously promised to the people before the 12th General Election?”
Is Chew so ignorant to the following:
>That toll collection is a federal government matter. Is Pakatan Rakyat (PR) already in control of Putrajaya? and
> That the PR has consistently pledged to abolish toll should it be given the mandate by the people to govern Malaysia
Chew must be thinking PR has taken over Putrajaya and is, therefore, calling Guan Eng to step down if he cannot abolish the Sungai Nyior toll.
Or, perhaps, Chew is also as idiotic as Miss Jessie ‘Tow Truck’ Ooi, assuming Malaysians are also as idiotic as them.
Consistency
The consistency that I am pointing out in MCA is also displayed by party Youth chief Wee Ka Siong who is upset with Kajang councillors for wearing green at the groundbreaking ceremony of SJKC Sungai Long.
Not to be outdone by Chew, Wee wrote that the wearing of green had disrupted the ceremony. Obviously, green has become an ugly colour for BN and MCA because it reminds the rakyat of the Lynas nuclear shit, a public health hazard which can cause slow death to those exposed to radiation.
But the ugly scene of Umno-Perkasa hooligans, manhandling and beating up anti-Lynas demonstrators on Penang island’s Esplanade ground, is nowhere in Wee’s radar.
MCA has been reduced to a party that is not only subservient to Umno but also to Malay non-governmental organisations (NGOs) like the racist Perkasa.
Wee also continues to ramble the same nonsense, year in and year out, that the DAP has never delivered on their promises pertaining to Chinese education.
Again, I guess it is time for Malaysians to send PR to Putrajaya in the next general election so that Malaysians can judge whether the DAP and PR can deliver.
Giving the rakyat peanuts, while they take billions
It is so crystal clear that the goodies being dished out by Najib to the rakyat recently is to pacify the restless rakyat to continue to support the BN in the next general election which must be held by March next year.
Malaysians are fully aware of this, and also that the goodies did not come from the pockets of BN leaders or the BN government. It is from the contributions of loyal Malaysian taxpayers.
In short, the rakyat are the masters and that any government of the day will be able to dish out goodies, not just the BN government.
What is really threatening Malaysians and Malaysia’s future is the corrupt BN government and its tacit support for the likes of Perkasa, Jati, Utusan Malaysia, etc to freely divide Malaysians so as to continue to rule and plunder the country’s wealth.
What Najib and BN are dishing out to the rakyat are peanuts compared with the billions of corrupt money being siphoned via cronies and one-sided project agreements that cripple the government (read taxpayers).
At the moment, accept and take what Najib and BN have to offer and give, but when the general election comes, vote with your heart and conscience because it is about your children’s future.
The national ballot paper of Malaysians is the master, not BN.
