Talam, water and politics

by Dr R@28

• In the last few weeks I have been observing the offensive strategy by BN on both the Penang and Selangor government. So far it appears that BN has yet to change itself in trying to win the hearts of the people. They are using gutter politics, creating lies and spinning it repeatedly till people would be believe that there are some truth in it.

• In Selangor, for weeks now we see that the MSM is now spinning the story of water shortages in treatment plants, creating stories that there is water cuts in several places and deployment of tankers to cope with water shortage. They are using the recent heat wave as a strategy to scare the people. Truth is there is no shortage on ground. One man who is in control of Syabas probably orchestrated the scare campaign.

• Talam isn’t exactly my darling. Given an opportunity I will piss on the head of Tan Sri Chan who had brought misery to thousands of house buyers and contractors. There is no love lost between us. But when Soi Lek son, a very young Dato’ raised the issue SSG rescuing Talam, clearly he is talking cock. How stupid our politicians can be. This is a simple issue. The debt was centralized at MB Inc and the recovery was done by MB Inc. At least there is an attempt to recover this debt. It has been sitting in the books of various Selangor GLC’s for years and recovery was almost impossible because of the political immunity by the previous government. The moment that SSG says that they will sue those who create malicious lies about the State, Selangor BN coordinator, “Dato Zain Badak” ask SSG not to resort to legal action to silence the critics.  For a start, if politicians approach issues on the basis of truth then there will not be any legal issues. The problem here is BN seems to create a lot of lies.

• Similarly in Penang, we see a non-issue staff transfer has been made into a sex scandal. BN has spun it to the level that people now believe that it indeed took place. Similarly this unsubstantiated allegation was done in the name of politics. BN leaders should focus on house cleaning. They should get rid of dirty politicians from within and show to the people that they are changing. Any BN politician with tainted image of murder, “legal stealing” and abuse of power should be removed from the government. To earn the respect of the people, they must do the right thing. So far they haven’t shown any interest in this aspect. On water issue in Selangor, they should simply walk away and tell Rozali to deal with it with SSG. Instead they are giving political and financial support to this guy. Sometimes I wonder who are the true owners of the water business in Selangor.
