PRAYER ALONE NOT ENOUGH! 'Pathetic' 'disgraceful' Kelantan MB flayed for sitting at home while floods ravage state

Kelantan MB - Captain abandons sinking ship to save himself…

…while telling the passengers to start praying profusely so that they may all be saved by the grace of God.

Prayer or no prayer, the rains will definitely stop when the clouds have released all the water.

But people who are being told to pray will claim that it is prayers that stopped the rains. Prayer is to ask for strength to do something, not to get the thing done without putting one’s heart and soul into doing it, for God helps those who help themselves.

“Pathetic” and “disgraceful” are not forceful enough to describe the excuse given by the Kelantan menteri besar for being unable to leave the comfort of his house to turn padang and assist in the relief operations.

As head of state, he should have been at the state’s flood relief operations centre to at least give moral support if not head the operations centre himself.

So, the Kelantan government’s state of readiness was only to implement hudud and not to face the annual floods? Flooding in Kelantan is an annual affair, only that it is worse this time.

This speaks volumes of the priorities of the state government. So the past year, the minds were only on scheming ways and means of getting hudud implemented so as to ensure a coveted place for themselves in the hereafter for enforcing God’s law although God did not anoint any mortals to enforce his law.

What a sorry state of affairs this country is in. The flood-prone state leader can only apologise for not being able to leave his flooded house to hand out relief packets to his constituents, and at the other hand the nation’s leader sneaked a holiday to Hawaii not for any state matter but for a photo and selfie opportunity showing him rubbing shoulders with the president of “the most powerful country on earth”.

These photos may be preparations for the next election campaign. – TMI
