This report HERE clearly shows that the onslaught of attacks by Zahrain may do more harm than good.
Some of my friends have asked me why the MSM seems to delight in airing his rants. Very good question. Many blog readers have already expressed their discontent about that man's hop out of PKR and Bayan Baru constituents have also done the same. Despite whatever negative feedback, it seems that he delights being in the limelight even if it is for the wrong reasons. As such, I will not give him any more airing than what I have already - which explains why I have mentioned his name only ONCE.
Honestly, I feel so disheartened that our political leaders in both sides of the divide seem to find pleasure and satisfaction in filing law suits, washing dirty linen in public, finding fault with one another. Golly! It is just plain childish, immature and shows whether they have a heart for the rakyat.
Take a look at the news portals or MSM. How many headlines focus on plans for the rakyat? How many headlines focus on NEEDS of the rakyat? We see headlines such as MPs, speaker caught exchanging ‘racist’ remarks, PKR challenges BN to cancel APCO contract, Pandemonium in the House as MP breaks procedures, Zahrain targets PR but BN is collateral damage, analysts say, Hisham unaware of 'third party' meddling with cops and Anwar given a week to explain 'One Israel'.
Why can't they think of US? There are so many more issues that merit their attention. For crying out loud, we did not elect them to office for them to find fault with one another or to dig up the past or to ensure there are enough summons or issues that will prevent them from standing for the next elections.
We elected these leaders to serve us. US. THE RAKYAT.
As I drove around my neighbourhood last night, my son lamented how the field is filled with pot-holes and how the elderly can trip and fall and hurt themselves if exercising there. Casually, I asked my husband if the situation was the same when the previous ADUN was there. He admitted there has been no change.
So while they are fighting over frogs, revelations from the past, the rest of us have to contend with:
* dirty drains
* rats running here and there claiming new territories in back lanes and alleys
* traffic congestion continues
* prices of goods and service continue to climb
* standards of education are more deplorable than what it used to be
* environmental degradation continues
* unemployment rates are still high
* FDI rates are dismal
* shopping malls are still empty
* we face the possibility of hikes in many other goods and services
* Malaysia is losing its competitiveness
* the crime rate is still high
* pollution is still a problem
* heritage issues remain unresolved
* unplanned development is still a problem
* health care issues remain unanswered
* many issues of concern plague the Orang Asli and even the Sarawakians but what is being done?
* illegal logging etc...
* Public expenditure issues
* etc etc etc
So what are our leaders doing?
You tell me.
So what should our leaders be doing?
You tell them and tell me please.
Why oh why must this season on madness be an unending one??? Can sanity rule again?
I hope so.

ahoo It is very difficult indeed to hear of a love one or close
friend having issue with cancer. As much as I wanted to say I understand how you feel, I can't utter those words. Every individual feels differently and the amount of mental pain cannot be measured by any mean.
I'd lost a sister to breast cancer in 1997. At the very moment, mom is still fighting the same dreadful disease since 2005. She had her major op last Sat to removed the ovarian cancer and is recovering well. We have every right to feel angry at anything and everything but that would not help one bit. For bitterness will consume us up and cause us to be negative in many ways.
Whatever that is taking place in the political arena, has a purpose as more and more dirts are out in the open. Things will get worse before any semblance of goodness or sanity can come around. For that is politics in display.
We need to think right, act right, it is what we think and do that make our day ! Live simply, speak kindly, care deeply and love generously. For the Lord loves a cheerful giver.
Tell your friend to seek immediate counsel and stand up against this cancer. Everyone has to die someday and we need to stand up against adversity and fight it with all that we have. Victory is always on those that dare to try and make a difference.
