The PM, Dato Seri Najib lamented at the cost the By-elections are costing the Rakyat. Apart from the economic cost, there are also social costs and other intangible costs that just does not justify holding by-elections after by-elections.
I agree with the PM. Tak payah bertanding lah. Too costly and senseless game this resigning from posts for no apparent reason and then some candidate from the same party recontesting again.
On another note, welcome back YB Eli Wong. I think Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim did the right thing by NOT accepting her resignation though one MP from PKR who fancies himself as the "Islamic ayatollah" thinks Khalid was wrong in rejecting Eli's resignation. Since when did Islam ever punish the victim? But then again, this is Malaysia. Like everything else, even in making statements on Islam, politicians have special privileges that ordinary Rakyat like you and me do not enjoy!
PEACE !
Najib has impressed me with his astute strategic moves, but unfortunately whether deliberate or otherwise his timing always seem to suck...
ReplyDeletewhy dos the timing suck?
ReplyDeleteLike Dr Mahathir says, if the Bn had a chance of winning would they not contest...pity he had to pick this by-election to make a point to not contest to save money :)
ReplyDeleteNow if he had decided not to contest in Bukit Selambau.....
