Promises fulfilled

So the promise has been fulfilled. What promise? "Najib made a pledge to approve the allocation (of RM3 million) for the school (SRJK (C) Rasa)a day after the by-election on Sunday, provided the Barisan won".

You can read about it here.

Wait a minute - he promises before the b(u)y-election that he will give the voters RM3 million if his party wins???? I dun have to have comment much. Res ipsa loquitor - the facts speak for themselves.

When some innocent person heard about this, she immediately asked if they can do such a thing. It sounds so wrong. I agree. Doesn't it sound so wrong?

If BN is truly concerned for the people there, they would give the money irrespective whether BN wins or not. BN is after all the ruling government.

What kind of ruling government do we have? They will only help the people if they win. If they dun, NO HELP (like the RM3 million) would be given!

A lot have told me that this is politics. Yeah, i know. And i'm glad i'm not involved in it.

The MCA (a component party of the BN) President (Dr. Chua) was quoted in the aforementioned news report to have said that "the Prime Minister’s action proved that the Barisan had not dangled the allocation as a 'bargaining tool' to fish for votes in Hulu Selangor".

I'm afraid i cannot comprehend his allegation. Sure, the PM kept his promise - but how does that not prove it was not used as a 'bargaining tool' (some might even say a bribe)? Doesn't it just confirms it?

Malaysia boleh!
