Has the MPPP gone overboard with Jessie Ooi's comments? How should a good government deal with critics and opponents?



How does a government, be it a Federal government, a State supervision and/or a Local Government, deal with criticisms (even allegations), alternative opinions as well as questions?

Well, when it came to a BN - it was not very good, but alas you am unhappy to see which when it comes to a Opposition governments, it seems to be additionally a same.And this is very very sad...

The recent Malaysiakini report which reported what a MPPP Councillors (i.e. those allocated by a Pakatan Rakyat state supervision - not yet inaugurated by a people) would similar to to do in response to allegations made by a person..

"...A organisation of Penang municipal (MPPP) councillors currently expressed their melancholy over MCA Beliawanis arch Jessie Ooi's matter condemning internal legislature workers for carrying out automobile clamping exercises.The councillors havevowed to take movement opposite Ooi, as well as a kind of movement will be motionless during a full legislature assembly upon Friday...."

First - people need to be speedy to express themselves as well as their opinions,which infrequently might be allegations formed upon report they listened or gathered from others. The likelihood which there might be inaccuracies and/or inconsistencies is always there, as well as should be of march accepted.

Second - Government and/or supervision officials/officers response must be (1) Investigation, as well as (2) Report a Result of a pronounced Investigation as well as explain any inaccuracies.[Being government, they can make use of all a accessible venues to do this]. A meeting/dialogue with a person/s who lifted a regard as well as ! members of a open is additionally a great thing for a consequence of burden as well as transparency. Very wrong to condemn, demonize, threathen movement opposite critics - even a worse of them.

Thirdly - If there were a little basement for a allegations/comments, afterwards a supervision should be open to suggestions for improvements.[On this clamping automobile allegations - maybe a single need to be put in place avenues of complaints - phone numbers/emails a single could call up as well as make allegations]. Maybe, a special legislature assembly which is open to a public, not during operative hours, could be held to attend to a allegations, give a MPPP's feedback as well as attend to ubiquitous comments/points made by a members of a public.

Are a MPPP Local Council meetings open to a public?? Are there open-dialogue with members of a open held upon a unchanging basement during a MPPP - of march after operative hours?

In reference to a Malaysiakini report, you hold which a MPPP is unequivocally over-reacting as well as they have been removing very personal with a chairman who has lifted these allegations/comments. Is this dark by a actuality which she is a part of of an Opposition party? This should not be.

"Councillor Ong Ah Teong pronounced a legislature is mulling movement opposite Ooi as she hasslandered a coercion officers who were merely carrying out their duties, according to customary handling procedures."

Apparently, a little of a MPPP members have been 'vowing'... this is removing a bit too much, is it not. From a report, they want to 'condemn' her...

Meanwhile, an additional MPPP councillor, L Prem Anand (right), pronounced a councillors will move a suit during Friday's meeting! to co ndemn Ooifor her fake remarks.

Come now, you do want shift - a shift from BN order to Pakatan order - as well as so, when you see a Pakatan Rakyat's allocated councilors you do this, it saddens me as well as you goal which a review of what happened is done, as well as a better Code of Conduct be grown emphasing openess to criticisms as well as even opposition, burden as well as transparency.

What is happening this Jessie Ooi, which unequivocally might be a 'political response' given a actuality which she is a little MCA chairman will have an impact - It will shock alternative persons from criticizing or opposing or conflicting with actions, positions, process of a government. Why? Because a risk which they will turn their guns upon you...for your comments. Maybe, just being silent is a best. Hello...we want to liberate all Malaysians from this enlightenment of overpower so which they can be more participative in supervision during all levels..

MPPP has answered - have clarified, as well as which should be that. There is no need for threats or defamation or further movement opposite her..This is my opinion.

Apologise or face action, councillors advise Jessie Ooi

Wonder how most media statements and/or press conferences have a MPPP had, as well as upon what critical issues. Jessie Ooi made an allegation. The MPPP has responded publicly. Regarding a alleged incident, apparently a military report has already been lodged...So really, as far as a Local Council, a emanate should be deliberate closed. The Local Councillors have been open servants, as well as should not make use of their office as well as resources for alternative purposes. Wonder whether this might be deliberate a 'political issue' - an emanate to conflict a MCA or BN. Hopefully not, for you have so most times criticized a BN for you do just which - regulating open resources as well as additionally officers to foster BN as well as conflict a Opposition. - Charles Hector
