ROSMAH'S AIDE DRAWS FIRE FOR ARROGANCE: Who funds Permata - your boss Rosmah or the people?

Yet we were told by her she is just a plain housewife.’

Onyourtoes: (Rosmah Mansor's aide) Rizal Mansor, first, may I ask where your salary come from - Rosmah's personal account or the government?

If it is from the government, may I know under which provision you are entitled to receive salary from the government?

Second, on Permata, may I know why this programme must be under the direct charge of Rosmah?

Since when under our system of government, the wife of PM is given a specific long-term function like other ministers in the cabinet.

Third, what safety and security concerns has Rosmah shown? The job you were talking about - in helping the evacuation of Malaysian students from Egypt and Saudi Arabia at the height of the Arab Spring two years ago - ought to be done by our Foreign Ministry. If they have not done it, ask Rosmah to sack them.

Fourth, Rizal, please tell Rosmah to save harder because we were told earlier her abnormal wealth was due to her saving from young.

By the way, whose children are attending Permata? How much were spent so far and how many students have benefitted? What is the cost per student?

You drink water, you must know the source.

SultanMydin: We were told by her she is just a plain housewife. But why is she delving into matters involving the country. Never has this kind of thing happened in the past.

The wives of former PMs carried themselves elegantly and never were they in the limelight for the wrong reasons.

If Rosmah is seeking popularity and fame and want to play a ‘leading role’ (as said by Rizal), then let her stand in Umno information chief Ahmad Maslan's constituency.

She can then be the legitimate PM if she wins the parliamentary seat.

Chipmunk: Rizal, please state your definition of a Muslim woman.

If indeed Rosmah is the role model of a Muslim woman, than I am afraid all the women who practise real Islam will not qualify to be a good Muslim woman.

By the way, was Permata set up with Rosmah's personal money? The last I remember, it was from a very special allocation of the budget provided by her husband, Najib Razak.

And wasn't it the taxpayers money that enabled her to open Permata, which is for her self-glorification?

Rosmah never does anything for free and without press coverage, so stop your apple polishing. Your time with them is limited as Najib will soon be forced to step down.

Lionheart: Every time someone does something, the spokesman has to announce it from the rooftop. Performance of a duty is mandatory and nothing more than that, and no credit can be claimed.

If she picks a tissue from the street, should you announce that, too? Resign/leave the seat if it is a burden.

Moon Keong: It's not good to criticise Rosmah without any proof. Rizal is doing the right thing in defending his superior.

This is the same as in our everyday life, we accuse our boss of swindling company's money, although we don't have any proof.

But the same boss is doing great job in getting the company to move forward. Just because of negative portray of Rosmah by Pakatan Rakyat, we totally ignore Rosmah's good deeds.

Maplesyrup: After reading this hilarious piece, all I can think of is, perhaps we can sack the home minister, foreign minister, education minister since Rosmah has been doing their job.

Maybe we should also ask PM to step down and let her take over, after all, she has been painted by Rizal as a most capable, smart, well-connected and extremely concern for the well-being of Malaysians.

Now that Rizal has covered all the positive parts, how about sharing with us, the enormous cost and expenditure that Malaysians have to bear to maintain her lifestyle and social activities?

Iiiizzzziiii: Yes, Rosmah reminded me of someone from the Philippines in the past, also very famous and ‘popular’ among the people. Her name is Imelda Marcos, the woman who had mesmerised the nation with her charm and excesses.

There was no shortage of people who would sing praises of her. What happened to Imelda in the end could have been the case here, too.

Kang Kong King: There is a thin line separating bravery from stupidity. A woman jump into a deep river to save someone drowning is called bravery.

A woman jump into a deep river to save someone from drowning but she herself cannot swim is called stupidity.

I'm afraid that Rosmah belongs to the latter category. - M'kini
