RM1700 Monthly Pay for Estate Workers?

It's really joke of the day and the joker is Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Tan Sri Bernard Dompok. He told Parliament on Oct 19 that the net income of a oil palm harvester is about RM1,700 and a rubber tapper’s salary is about RM870 a month. If this is true than I don't think our Malaysian will moved out to urban area looking for better employement. Many Indians who was loyalist to estate employer should be having luxury life if the number's given by minister is true. Hope Sungai Siput MP Dr.D.Jeyakumar can arrange a tour studies to estates to give better exposure to our MP's. If our MP's can fly to Taiwan for agriculture studies why not they have the same tour studies to estate's for better understanding on living conditions of our employee's.

Old Friends - But Really Good Shot

The snap was really good. Let the peole have a look on this photo. Parlimentarians really have a good time during the parliment sitting then why should the supporters bickering each others for 24hrs? Hope Muhyiddin will not have a fear after having a look on this photo.

N3:Kota Siputeh

High Court declares N3 Kota Siputeh state seat in Kedah held by umno/bn Datuk Abu Hassan Sarif vacant and the instruction was given to EC to call for the fresh poll. The declaration will bring the political hot spot back to the centre of the debate on who has the people’s support. Based on GE 2008, N3 was won by umno/bn representative with the slim majority 495 votes compared to 2004 election where the same candidate won with 1573 votes. While Bagan Pinang by-election, saw the PR was defeated with bigger majority it will not be the same situation in N3. The situation in Kedah was totally different where umno stand very weak after the humiliation defeat in last GE which saw umno lost the power in Malay heartland. Even though its too early to predict who will be defeated but these contest is equally important to determine who will lead the road to Putrajaya in coming GE.

MCA are heading to mass destruction

Extremely sick with MCA political drama. Latest script was from Dr.Chua Soi Lek. He said he is ready to hand over MCA deputy president post to Liow Tiong Lai with condition he personally request to him. In other words Dr.Chua saying, Liow come and kiss my foot and the rest I will leave it to you. The whole drama now can be concluded as power struggle among the 3 MCA leaders. They are not bother about their members aspiration for the party. The power struggle in MCA will not end at near time. It will pro-long until the MCA collapse totally. If George Bush junior was the most weakest leader in American history, Ong Tee Keat, Chua Soi Lek and Liow Tiong Lai can be concluded the worst leaders in MCA. They has come to the point, for the sake of position "they will do any thing." Grub party number one title is more than everything for them. What they don't understand is - MCA are heading to mass destruction. When they realised, it will be too late to save the party.

U-Turns shows Inconsistency

1st U-turn – Ong Tee Keat refused to step down after the delegates rejected his decision to sack Dr.Chua Soi Lek. Initially he said will step down if he lost the votes in EGM.

2nd U-turn – Registrar of Sociecty issued a letter saying Dr.Chua Soi Lek is a legal Deputy President but silent on Liow Tiong Lai status who was appointed as Deputy President by the Central Committe after Dr.Chua was removed. Initially ROS said they will not interfere.

3rd U-turn – Ong Tee Keat and Dr.Chua Soi Lek take up the hatchet. They can’t see each others face to face but now they shake hand and pretending nothing happen. Both of them join hand to face the 3rd Force lead by Liow Tiong Lai [the shortest Deputy President if the ROS decision is legally accepted by MCA members]

4th U-turn – Ong Tee Keat strategies his plan to remove Dr.Chua Soi Lek based on support from Liow, Dr. Wee Ka Siong and Chew Mei Fun but then he understood they was behind the 3rd Force. Ong Tee Keat made a biggest U-turn against 3rd Force leaders for his political survival.

Snippet

I can add many more U-turns which shows the inconsistency of decision makers in MCA. The whole episode now sound a good jokes of the kopitiam which really make the delegates look and sound fool of the day. Ong Tee Keat and Dr.Chua Soi Lek might bury the hatchet but they will not be able to have a reconcilitation in longer period. They will back stab each other once the 3rd Force threat silent. The most important matter is not who are in party corridor of power but will this team get the endorsement from party delegate and chinese community? Will other Malaysian accept the MCA drama? Will they be able to win the voters? Ong Tee Keat might win this drama with best actor award but he have lost the reputation and confidence not only from chinese community but Malaysian overall.
