Lembab Dan Lambat Membawa Padah

Tragedy could’ve been avoided

CT Ali | March 5, 2013

It is time Najib Tun Razak and his ministers took responsibility for their actions and faced the repercussions that must follow.

More unnecessary deaths. This time not a suspect in police custody. Not a suspect being interrogated by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.

This time not a Bernama journalist accompanying Kelab Putera 1Malaysia on an Islamic charity mission to Mogadishu, Somalia.

Not the death of a teenager after a police chase. This time not a foreign national blown up with C4. We remember, too, the villagers killed at Memali.

This time death comes to the Royal Malaysian Police Force (PDRM). It comes to PDRM because the government thinks it is prudent to use the police and not the army to handle an armed intrusion by over 200 foreigners into Sabah.

Death comes because this government thinks it is prudent to ask the police to contain the Sulu armed invaders – a job that should have really been the prerogative of the armed forces simply because common sense will tell you that it really is a job for the military.

Time and time again this government has made decisions that have troubled our people, caused much financial hardship, and physical and mental sufferings.

Our prime minister keeps silent. His ministers tell us lies. And when the deed is done, they dare to put the blame on others.

The incursion by the armed insurgents into Lahat Datu and the subsequent deaths of our police personnel (eight till Monday) are all being blamed on Anwar Ibrahim, and on Pakatan Rakyat.

And, I am sure, eventually on the many illegal immigrants in Sabah.

National sovereignty threatened

The same illegal immigrants that this government have chosen to “close one eye” to in the many, many years that they have been allowed to come into Sabah and allowed to grow into numbers.

These illegal immigrants have become a problem not only to the people in Sabah but have also become a threat to the very sovereignty of our nation.

Is this not the way of this government? That everyone else is to be blamed for what goes wrong under its regime?

Am I to be blamed for using too much petrol when Petronas runs out of oil? Will the settlers in Felda be blamed for wanting too much returns on their investments when Felda Global Ventures Holding Bhd goes belly up?

Will the Yang di-Pertuan Agong be asked to take responsibility by this government for not protecting the interest of the rakyat when our public debts goes into the trillions of ringgit?

It is time Najib Tun Razak and his ministers took responsibility for their actions and faced the repercussions that must follow.

It is also crucial to the future of our children to ensure that change will bring about a responsible, accountable and open government in Putrajaya.

No more unnecessary deaths, no more insanely rich politicians, and no more hideously powerful politicians – we must take back Malaysia for ourselves now!
