Is Abdullah Ahmad Badawi Tough Enough?

Malaysia's PM said he will get tough when necessary. Is this true? Or has this happen when it really needed? From day one he step onto PM post, he gave the public the impression that he's a clean PM, and that he will get rid of those corrupted ministers, public servant, or anyone who caught involve in corruptions.

Now few years on and have we really see any action? Yes there were a few, but all ended with the same result - Insufficient evident and that suspects were cleared off the criminals. Most notably the Datuk Z and Eric Chia cases.

Now he is getting mad about the Hindraf act to stage street demonstrations. He warned those demonstrator they will face prosecution should they carryon the street assembly. Just wonder on what ground the government wanted to charge them with? Have they committed a more serious crime than those involved in corruptions? Have they killed or murdered anyone that they deserved such treatment? Is their act more damaging than trafficking drugs? Will they cause public unrest if they are staging a peaceful walk along the main road?

For one thing I know is that our government is doing everything they could to try to contain this being out of control, and that it is view as more serious crime than those mentioned above. Surely there are some hidden agenda which public will not know. But from the way Abdullah is handling this situation shows his incapability and also he is treating all Malaysian as stupid person. He has made too much empty promises which today his word is worthless and that people will not listening to him anymore.

All these while he's protecting those corrupted minister and murderer, and he's talking to act tough against such soft spoken, well educated lawyers and opposition parties' leaders. From this we will know they are now afraid to lose the few seats at certain area to opposition parties, and that they are making use of this chance to try to make certain creditable people/candidates ineligible for the next election.

It is not right to stage such public demostration as it will jeopadise our reputation and also causing unrest in our communities. But for everything that's happened, surely there're some reason behind it. Is these caused by our government's biasness? Or is this being fuelled by some hidden person, that's trying to unrest our country. What I am saying is it suppose to be a minor case, where certain community is trying to pass a message to our government. But probably for someone who is outside this country is taking chance to cause some unrest in this country, and that they are making it such a big issue, and start fuelling the rumous around, then they retreating themselve from the scene.

Maybe that's the root cause of all these. We hope our nations will be calm and smart enough to handle such situation. Let's not get affected by outsiders, as this will do a lot more harm than we can see, and we will put our country's reputation to shame should this situation not carefully look into.
