Muhyiddin Yassin and Khaled Nordin are not fit to serve in Education
Ministries. Instead, they need to be educated! Can you imagine if Barisan
Nasional were to be given another mandate, the country will go down the drain
as our education system kept declining in the global competition! I always
reflect on why BN kept on making mistakes one after another since 308 General
Elections. I saw that God’s Hand was and will be at work. God has given them a
spirit of confusion – their people didn’t even know what they were doing!

JUNE 9 — Are schoolboys in charge of education in Malaysia
Only to flip flop, be
wishy-washy, do a volte-face and overturn that emotional decision a day later.
Is that how a government runs things? Aren't these ministers — Tan Sri
Muhyiddin Yassin and Datuk Seri Khaled Nordin — an embarrassment to Datuk Seri
Najib Razak?
They can't even be gracious and
admit their mistake. Take Khaled's statement that Unisel's appeal for National
Higher Education Fund (PTPTN) loans to be restored showed that Pakatan Rakyat
(PR) could not deliver its promise of free education.
Is that how a Barisan Nasional
(BN) minister behaves? Use state facilities to prove a point? And let students
seeking a better future be at his whim and fancy?
Does he think these students
will think highly of him? Or be "grateful" to the federal government?
If anything, Khaled has pushed Selangor to prove it can fund these students
with RM30 million from the sale of UniSel land. And if Selangor can do it, why
the need for PTPTN? Or a BN government minister who is vindictive?
One would expect a better
performance from Khaled. He isn't some junior minister out to impress his
superiors or his followers with such an emotional response to PR's promises.
In a marketplace of idea,
Khaled and those of his ilk should try to out-think PR, not resort to a
schoolyard scrap over who is better or stronger and the loser walking off in a
huff vowing not to friend the victor.
Why has politics in Malaysia
gone down to just being mean spirited, grumpy and sulking in a corner by some
of the BN chaps? Especially these two from Johor, the birthplace of Umno. One
expects a lot more from a state that gave Umno its founding president, Datuk
Onn Jaafar.
Perhaps Khaled might think he
won this round against PR. In reality, its a fiasco, an own goal for BN. This
childish decision and about-turn is the latest in a long line of blunders that
won't endear some of these ministers to the people. What more students who will
vote in the future and can influence their parents to vote for the opposing
side
These BN ministers are
undermining the prime minister's strategy of winning back support for his
personal mandate to make a better Malaysia
What a pity. If this is how
they see "1Malaysia. People First. Performance Now.", then they have
gone opposite of the concept's tagline, like schoolboys who don't understand
anything and make it up as they go along.
We don't need schoolboys in the
Cabinet. We need real men, and gentlemen at that with the nation's interests in
their hearts.
