Say Sorry

I remembered clearly we were taught and EDUCATE since young to apologise if we were wrong or did some silly mistakes. It is ok to make the mistakes but the important thing is to REALISE your mistakes, pick it up, apologise if you hurt somebody and go on..

Here you go with Ong Tee Keat who had pointed out about the misused of govt fund in some sekolah jenis kebangsaan in Johor. He was later 'shot' and 'attacked' quickly and swiftly by our dear miniter of EDUCATION to keep his mouth shut because this issue is not within his scope of work and none of his biz. He is wrong for bringing up the topic and clearly should be reprimanded...etc etc.

Thanks to the hardworking Chinese press like Sin Chew Jit Poh which covers the story thoroughly and visited the actual site. Our dear Samy and Ong KT were also there to witness the RM30,000 worth of project. Apparently, what OTK mentioned was correct, some govt officer misused the fund and the actual work on site is only worth RM3000. Clearly our Minister of Education is pretty busy to attend to this trivial matter which concerns his department, he was absent from the scene.

He did not apologise or speak up or comment anything now, a day after the 'discovery' CSI episode .....

Whoever is the hero or whoever previously made silly comments, I don't care la actually. But hey, how come nobody says anything about WHO is the actual culprit? What is the company's name so that we are warned of this heartless Class F contractor and what about the officer? What is his/her name? What is the penalty then?

This, I believed is only a small crumb of the BIG CHEESY CAKE out there. There are so many govt jobs that are worth millions of ringgit. Can I assume ALL to have the same outcome?

Please, the Malaysian culture is not about telling ONLY the good news and cover up the bad news, discuss behind close door kind of attitude. I sincerely hope IF this is the culture, it is about time that we scrap this culture and embrace a more active and transparent policy. Hello, Malaysia, afterall, you are about to turn 50 years old liao la!
