Litany Of Incompetence Continues In Selangor... But It's OK! They Have A RM 1 Economic Advisor Now!

In my hiatus, too many samples of incompetence have arisen in the state of Selangor, such that I have chosen not to dedicate individual blogs postings to them, but rather lump some together here. May the list, or at least the observations, be not too stale...

1. A Selangor Pakatan ADUN has decided that the Malaysian government is wasting money when engaging a top British coroner to witness the post-mortem of the exhumed body of Teoh Beng Hock. This is likely because the coroner, whilst previously engaged in high profile cases such as the death of Princess Diana and victims of war crimes, is not Thai, has boring coloured hair and is not in the habit of accusing the police of all sorts of nonsense.


2. Still on Teoh's case, to assist in their time of need, Pakatan has of course ensured Teoh's family is being represented by the best and most impartial lawyer they can think of... Gobind Singh Deo! Must be impartial mah, he is after all a DAP ADUN! Of course if it is true Teoh's death was related to some DAP wrong-doing, Gobind will do the 'right thing'! Of course, of course... And just look at the hair colour of the coroner Gobind picked!


3. In the meantime, even before the conclusion of Teoh's inquest, Pakatan has achieved another success in 'efforts to eradicate' corruption in Malaysia! Thanks to the hard work of DAP leaders especially, the High Court has ruled that the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) can only interogate witnesses during office hours! It is believed this will surely lead to more corrupt individuals being convicted, Pakatan hopes those from BN...


4. The Selangor state has decided that their propaganda is not failing because of their own incompetence, but due to the presence of mainstream media in their press conferences. This has led to expulsions of 'pro-BN' media from Pakatan related press conferences in the state. Just to make a point though, the suspect 'pro-BN' reporters are still invited, but are then expelled from the press conferences just prior to their beginning ...


5. In the same vein, all Selangor government staff and students from Selangor state owned institutions cannot join 'BTN' courses any more. Obviously this is because Pakatan feels threatened by BTN running their 1-2 week courses, as it would leave them only 50-51 weeks in the year to correct BTN's 'propaganda', which is not enough! Many are now wondering if Selangor students will be blocked from going for National Service!


6. In the meantime, crime is still rife in the PJ area, despite the promises of Pakatan leaders that they would be able to cut crime better than BN. Perhaps this is because Pakatan have a better record of working with the police? (LOL!) Unfortunately, these promises have still not been delivered, however, never fear, at least the MPPJ have managed to crack down on all those excessive billborads that were all over the place before this!



7. In addition, Muslims in Selangor can breath easy that only 'certified' persons may give religious sermons in the state. Of course, this may put UIAM and USIM in some danger as no one really knows if their lecturers are 'certified' according to JAIS' interpretation. But don't worry, as JAIS is so confident they know what they are doing that they are already charging a former mufti for preaching without being certified...

Nevertheless, despite all their demonstrated folly, Selangor Pakatan has hope! They will soon receive invaluable guidance from the world's most high-value 'economic adviser', for RM 1 mah! Cheap, cheap! I am sure they can arrange for the adviser to be imprisoned in Selangor for 'easy consultation' if ..., and no one will complain about him being a 'highly paid' fellow. Of course, you would only pay high for good value, as it almost never comes cheap...
