we am stumped, we really am. Why can't people really meant it when they say they apologize as well as say sorry. There should not be any qualifications or buts.
There contingency be sincerity. And we consider that vicious ingredient was missing today when Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak told the entertainment in Kedah that he would similar to to apologize for Barisan Nasional's (BN) mistakes in 2008 that resulted in the bloc losing the two-thirds majority.
He afterwards said that the BN would work tough to rectify the mistakes. But the "mistakes" according to Najib were made several years ago so why weren't the mistakes accurate after all BN controls Putrajaya as well as all the purse strings as well as everything else.
So why weren't the "mistakes" rectified. Najib has been PM since 2009 so he can't blame Abdullah Badawi.
Apart from referring to the audacity of BN reps as the single of the mistakes, he did not blow up upon other reasons that led to the strong showing by the Opposition. we can fill in the blanks.
* Corruption as well as abuse of power: there were the allegations opposite Khir Toyo as well as Zakaria Deros. PKFZ
What is still the same:
* Criminal breach of trust in the National Feedlot Corporation case as well as the argumentative allotment of Tajudin Ramli's tighten to RM590 million debt to Danaharta as well as the argumentative award of the RM2.2 billion (project) to the company related to Umno counsel as well as the former Chief Justice.
* The compromised judiciary: Remember the VK Lingam tapes as well as the commentary of the Royal Commission that concerned Vincent Tan as well as Mahathir Mohamad.
What is still the same: All authorised precedents were thrown out the window when BN usurped power in Perak.
* Clamping down upon polite liberties: Force was used to put down the Hindraf entertainment in 2007 as well as the activists were placed under the ISA.
What has not changed: Las! t july, military dismissed tear gas as well as chemical water opposite Malaysians who were marching for clean elections.
* Race relations: From the keris wielding by Hishammuddin Hussein to labelling non-Malays kaum pendatang to the unresolved emanate of burial rites for converts.
What has not changed: Perkasa stoking racial tension, attacks upon churches as well as suraus as well as Umno supporters dragging the cow head in criticism opposite office building the church in Shah Alam.
This is what we can recollect though we figure Najib has the lot to apologize for as well as to make amends. He has had dual or three years though things do appear no better, even worse.
* Othman Wahab reads The Malaysian Insider.
