Dirtier and Dirtier

I just wonder...how low can Malaysian politics go? Just last week the initimate Elizabeth Wong photos were leaked to the newspapers...obviously in an attempt to taint her character. Which newspaper? Aiyoh you know-lah...has to be them BN papers ma!! And who else but a stupid devil (toyol in this case...) would equate her victimisation with CSL's well-publicised tryst?? Well, if this is the intelligence of a aspiring future UMNO Youth Leader then there's nothing left to say now right? How about the 'disappearance' of the alleged perpetrator on the eve of the leakage...now please don't tell me you can't smell a rat here? Smelling like a certain private investigator who's whereabouts are still 'not known' hmm?

Obviously the newly-commissioned MACC and JACC will be BN's lapdog...just on Thursday the MACC barked loud and clear to follow its masters commands: this time against the Selangor Menteri Besar! Well I'm sure he has a lot of skeletons in his closet (after all he has done his time with UMNO) but to take the 'cars and cows' incident is stretching it a bit too far! Especially when you compare them to the two biggest scandals to-date - Lingamgate and PKFZ - which incidentally, has yet to be addressed after years in the news! 

PR is to be faulted too, but to a lesser degree. Hey the actions of the Speaker of the State Assembly may be a risky counterstroke, but I doubt it'll work in Boleh-land. Of course BN has decided to go to the judiciary to get the suspensions removed, but err, shouldn't the legislative and judiciary be independent of each other? Hmm, maybe elsewhere but as we have seen definitely not in Malaysia! 

How long more will the sagas continue on? How long more will the machinations continue? And urm, who's steering the ship? Don't the people in power know that the economic tsunami will hit us very soon? Already our new Finance Minister has admitted that the growth forecast for Malaysia for 2009 would have to be cut - oi hello, even the garbage man can tell you that!

Let me tell you my prediction here: negative growth - Malaysia in recession by 2Q 2009.

Kapish?
