Once in a while, I'll visit Malaysia Kini for latest news on Malaysia's politics. And the ruckus in Malaysia's Parliament is like a norm nowadays. *Sigh*Well, seriously, I've been to the parliament before a few years back. Most of the seats are empty (either our elected representative are too lazy to attend, or busy doing something else). The only person that i see, can deliver with his points in tact is the honorable Lim Kit Siang. I am not supporting any party here. As I listen to Lim KS, I noticed that what he is saying is true, it does happen and the thing that he reported is affecting our daily life. BUT, there are some individuals who keep disrupting his speech, and giving irrelevant feedbacks that sparks my anger. Sadly, there are also people who is using Lim KS lack of fluency in bahasa Melayu to attack his speech. It is saddening that people, especially our so-called leaders do not have the ability to think intellectually.
And today, 4 of our representatives are being suspended from the parliament (read here) . Which means, they cannot represent us anymore. This also means, that the Barisan Nasional has the power of the 2/3 majority (read here).
*Sigh*
The chaos in the parliament, is actually embarrassing to our people. But i somehow feel that our politicians feel proud about it. They look very arrogant, walk and talk like big "taikor". Perhaps they feel proud of being "featured in the television"? or perhaps they thought that is the way they "mempertahankan hak rakyat"?
What do you think? Did we choose the wrong leaders to represent us?

@Iskandar Agong, *Sigh* I wonder.when will the REAL leaders take over?

no comments~ later tarik masuk ISA pulak~

i disagree with Soon.. freedom of expression is a fundamental right to every citizen.. see: Federal Constitution & Universal Declaration of Human Right.. i support you say anythg you want but the limit is no defamatory statement..
who is the REAL leader?? anwar??! i dont think so...
Anwar is seriously a troublemaker i my opinion~
in*
Hmm that is why I chose to speak in court rather than speaking in parliament :P
p.s. The Federal Constitution provides for the freedom of speech on the basis that one does not profess anything that is against the interest of national security, so normally if you did post something 'defamatory', they will claim that you have purportedly breached 'national security', thus ISA. Which is pretty screwed up.
It's an elected dictatorship sad to say. Democracy has become a joke.
@Vin Tsen Gan perhaps you should read about what Mahathir did to the judiciary system in the late 1980s.
Valuable info. Lucky me I found your site by accident, I bookmarked it.
Haha, at least it's gonna be a memorable December :) Merry Christmas!
