Corruption

The word 'corruption' immediately sends shivers down my spine.

I think by now Mercedes has been the buzz word in one eastern state of Malaysia. Because it replaces our national car as the official car for councilors! Ho ho ho, of course given a choice to the least fancied person, he/she would have opted for the Merc too, who doesn't?

But what so incredibly different scenario altogether over this issue is because the current MB, be it on purpose or unintentional, exposed the corruption element in the maintenance of a fleet of Proton Perdana V6, the cars used by the former MB and his men. Wow, read carefully....over RM1,000,000 spent just for servicing some 16 vehicles in about 5 years, 2004-2008!!!

And the culprits are ....clever Malaysians please be the judges; the appointed or rather unauthorized service centers or the people with vested power at that time??? Or both? It is like 'you scratch my back, I scratch your back'....huh how true it is.

This is so-called "bringing up the standard of living for the Malays" champion by Umno all these unjustified years! Just by getting the government contracts will make them rich (yeah...very rich) and can be on par with other races in Malaysia. My foot!

See for yourself, who is getting what and who are better off ....only the cronies! The average people in the street, whether you are Malay, Chinese, Indian, Kadazan, Punjabi and others, will still work like a "dog" to get what they want in life. That too is only an average life nowadays.

Talk is cheap but don't talk garbage through the @55hole! This is how the morons in power talk.
