Frankly, I hardly buy or read newspapers today given the local political issues hogging the limelight daily never seem to end where stories like giant melon puts farmer and wife in limelight are even much more refreshing to the minds.
Other interesting developments is on South Africa's Mbeki agrees to party call to resign ends his nine year reign as President succeeding Nelson Mandela amidst corruption allegations. Do we smell some similarity here in Malaysia?
On the local front, Pak Lah not pushed to step down, says Umno information chief despite earlier reports on Pak Lah under pressure to exit. One thing for sure is that even the UMNO Supreme Council is in cahoots and splitin the middle.
And a bare it all by Information Minister that Government radio station Radio24 used to spread ruling party propaganda instead of benefitting the country as a whole! Why does the rakyat (people) want to pay taxes to listen to Government propaganda 24 hours?
He goes on blaring "As a government radio station, it should not be misused by anyone, including to disseminate matters negative to society and contrary to government policies," and then "If you do not agree with government policies, don't be a government employee. Resign."
Malaysians can expect at least "MyFuture" to repair the racial ties in this peace loving country. While that program may be more suitable to the BN/UMNO leaders primarily, majority Malaysians irregardless of race, religion and culture on the ground remain united as one while the leaders of UMNO play racial politics to remain in power. Read Zaid’s simple recipe to reforms for a short dose of UMNO power play.
