Anwar vs Shabery

I was watching the much anticipated debate between Anwar Ibrahim & Shabery (the new Msia misinformation minister) last night. I must say that Anwar scored a very critical political point last night, after almost 10 years away from the mainstream TV, he carried himself very well infront of the viewers, he also came prepared with credible facts and suggestions to alleviate the fuel hike situation in Malaysia. To simply put it, he has substance to his speech and he is believable. However I do not think that it will assist him much in his quest of becoming the 5th PM of Malaysia.

Shabery was simply disappointing. He resorted to personal attack on Anwar and didn't come prepared with credible facts and suggestions to enlighten us idiotic people on how the current ruling government is prepared to ease the surging inflation in this country. He came with lots of historical facts though, to which I am not interested as the past is the PAST! Show me the future but he failed miserably. The simple message from him was, the government has no choice so you people shut up go back to your miserable life and change your lifestyles! Nevermind we're being compared to Norway which has almost 5 times our per capita income. Carrying the title of INFORMATION MINISTER, he is the worst listener in the debate and he failed to stick to the theme and to answer some simple questions thrown at him.

I am even more disappointed with the way of how mainstream medias have been reporting this. They declared it a draw??!!?? Come on, that is equivalent to daylight robbery. Please give more credits to your readers as we have watched the same telecast last night and we saw what happened!

State controlled medias, biased reporting, screwed judicial system, corrupted police force, cronies government servants........ the list goes on and on. Some how, I wonder if there's still sufficient time for things to change, but I must admit that it looks bleak.... the country looks pretty certain to be screwed unless a miracle happens in the political scene soon.

I can only say that the ruling party is continuing living in a state of denial. There's so much things to do yet there are not many arses moving. I used to be very optimistic about the future of this country, but nowadays I find myself thinking of migrating to other countries more frequently. Being an Aussie's PR still beat being a Malaysia citizen, this is the level of confidence I have with the current administration now.

Baboon quoted me in his blog today - "Different angles to look at things, but you're still f**ked from all angles"

If you can't win the debate man-to-man, you arrest him the next day, strap some C4, give him two black eyes, and use a BB gun to shoot his nuts! BOLEHLAND!!!!
