For shame! Civility, decency and the substance of politics Aliran

OCT twenty-three Chistopher Chong reminds elected reps which they have been open servants whose pursuit it is to safeguard a gratification of all Malaysians by focusing upon open issues rsther than than personal domestic gains.

We Malaysians honour ourselves as being courteous people. However, a latest situation which concerned unfounded allegations over a teenage son of a high-profile statesman present in cyberspace has definitely paid for a new low in a level of politeness as good as goodness in a open square.

In a past few years, we have witnessed a unfortunate trend in a open space where vilifying a name of high-profile politicians has turn a usually game in town. What is some-more unfortunate was a actuality which a Member of Parliament authorized of such tactics because this was proposed by those upon a alternative side of a aisle!

I'm appalled which this MP can have such a open remark. Is this a signal of what is to come in a domestic realm? That goodness as good as politeness has no place in politics. All which counts is scoring domestic points regulating whatever tactics it takes to safeguard which sand sticks to a name of a person involved. And if it equates to involving family members as well, because so much a better!

I wonder how politicians from a progressing generation would perspective a state of affairs which is happening today. I suspect they would have been appalled as good as abashed by a level to which a governing body has sunk.

What is intensely distressing about this trend is which it serves to confuse us from a real substance of politics. Politics is about finding solutions to issues which affect all Malaysians by open as good as receptive contention whether in Dewan Rakyat or in cyberspace. It is not meant to be used for personal domestic gains.

Rather than going after each alternative by slinging mud, maybe it would be some-more productive for a politicians to spend some-more of their time highlighting a predicament of typical ! Malaysia ns.

The rising price of living, increasing communal tragedy as good as a plunge of a sourroundings between others should be high upon a bulletin of a YBs rsther than than thumping tables as good as catcalling to uncover narrow-minded await in a Dewan Rakyat whilst engaging in gutter governing body outward a august hall.

As representatives of a people, they have a dignified duty to uphold goodness as good as politeness in a open rsther than than letting it trouble-maker in to a giveaway for all in a name of scoring personal domestic gains.

Perhaps a YBs would do good to remind themselves which they have been open servants whose pursuit it is to safeguard a gratification of all Malaysians by focusing upon open issues rsther than than personal domestic gains. In actuality which is because they were voted in to Parliament in a initial place. Aliran
