Transferred!

So a government servant has committed a wrong. A criminal offense, in fact. What will the leaders do?

Depends on which country it happens in. In my beloved land, there seems to be only one solution - transfer them!!!

Remember the pathetic story of the cop who was jealous the other cops were getting more bribe money than he was? (See here) Well, those cops were transferred out! Yup. It was reported that:-
Four policemen from the Gemas police station have been transferred out after a colleague lodged a report alleging that they received “ang pow” running into thousands of ringgit every month from those involved in illegal activities.
Read the entire report here.

And more recently, a teacher spewing out racist allegations and sentiments had the same fate - she was transferred out!!!! Read about it here.

The way to solve problems - to our leaders - is just to send it away. And just hope it won't happen again. Like an ostrich, if it is out of sight, it won't hurt you!!!

Sad.

And the teacher - well, it was reported that she had apologised. Wait a minute, tho. Read carefully:-
Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Senator T. Murugiah, who visited SMK Telok Panglima Garang yesterday, said the teacher regretted the incident and had apologised to the students.

“She also said that she did not expect things to become so serious and has agreed to be transferred to another school,”

It looks to me like what Rihanna described in her latest song - she's not sorry for the act, but just sorry that she got caught.

Malaysia boleh!
