Like most ordinary people, I was initially very confused by all the articles and commentaries on the Perak constitutional crisis. Just like reading an interesting book, I was anxious to know what the ending would be. There is one important difference though. Unlike a book, the ending of this crisis – for better or for worse - will affect my life and the lives of ordinary rakyat of Perak, as well as all Malaysians, given the ramifications that the outcome will have on the constitutional process of political power and governance.

A New Road Map To Vision 2020

The recent headline in one of the national papers ‘Gloom till end of next year’ together with a photo of our Second Finance Minister crying, has encouraged me to write this commentary article.  It touches on various sensitive issues that may seem to be disconnected but in fact are clearly part of a larger national problem.

I am confused by these 2 headlines in the media today:

MUSCLE FOR MACC– The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) was launched yesterday by our Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to create a new era of integrity- with more bite and muscle to fight corruption.   

A BETTER PACKAGE- The second stimulus plan will be bigger to have impact, says Najib. To speed up the implementation of projects, Najib said tenders would only be called for projects worth RM500,000 and more. Previously, projects valued RM200,000 and above would require tenders. Now, only quotations would suffice for projects worth below RM500,000. This new move will benefit Bumiputera contractors.
