MALAYSIANS ARE NUMBED BY ALL THE POLITICAL INTRIGUES

Malaysians are numbed by all the on going political intrigues that distract the government from focusing on problems facing the rakyat. We do not need these political conspiracies that serve only the ambition of a few politicians at the expense of the rakyat of the nation. What the rakyat wants and need is for the government of the day to find the solution to ease the burden of the suffering poor and do it fast.

Can all the political parties accept the General Election 2008 result and just get to work for the rakyat like they are suppose to do when they campaigned in the election? What the rakyat have now are just promises and little result, especially for the poor - no matter where they are or what colour is their skin. After more than 50 years of independence, Malaysia is among the most developed country in this region. But, why are there still many rakyat who are living in old patched huts, with no piped water or electricity? Where are the roads and bridges for the rural folks and their children who have to risk their lives everyday just to go to schools? Where are the transportation system for these poor rakyat to bring their goods to be sold in towns? The government must concentrate all efforts and put out more fund in these sectors immediately if it seriously wants to elevate the suffering of these poor rakyat and eradicate poverty in this country by 2020.

Politicians, where are your hearts? Hear the suffering poor and bring yourselves closer to God. Do not disguise your greedy actions for more power to mislead the rakyat. No amount of media exposure of wrong doings is going to stop the power grabbing for monetary gains. The monetary gains will win hands down, every time. The wily politicians will find ways to convince the rakyat that their action is in the interest of the rakyat. Harvest the virgin jungle using helicopters and choose only the old trees?? Reason is that the Kedah government has no fund for state development because the federal government had not given the RM 100 Million as agreed. (Rakyat read that as you want that Rm 100 million for your self interests). Never mind if the padi farmers suffer if there is no water years from now. (We won't be in power then!).

Power is the axis of all evil. It is the constant companion of all politicians and if the leaders do not bring themselves closer to the people, it is so easy to fall into the believing that you are invincible and the higher up you are the more inaudible the voice of the lowly rakyat. You only hear the voices of the people around you and the voices that they want you to hear. As the leader of our nation, our Prime Minister need all the supports from all quarters to fight the rising cost of essential goods and also the greedy power hungry people (unscrupulous politicians and businessmen) who wants more monetary gains for themselves.
