Signs that Najib Razak may actually be residing on another planet.
Sign#1 Najib and Ong Tee Keat, accompanied by a the usual entourage I suppose, took a ride on the new LRT train and commented, “It was a very pleasant experience and the views were beautiful too. So I wonder why there are those who had no problem using public transportation when overseas but when back here, would never take the LRT or bus?”.
Of course, it would be most pleasant for him la. But is it for the rest of us? And his question doesn't even deserve an answer, does it?
Sign#2 Najib defended his deputy Muhyiddin saying that the DPM remains committed to the 1Malaysia concept and that his “Malay first” statement reflects the provision in the Constitution, which is based on the ethnic (group) to which one belongs.Sign#3 Najib announced yesterday that all bidders for government contracts must sign declaration letters pledging their commitment to ensure projects awarded to them are executed responsibly and are 'graft-free'!!!
"They will also be required to enter into an agreement which contains an anti-corruption clause in government procurement. This is our committment to fight corruption and enhance government integrity."
PHWAAAAR!!! This is OUR commitment to fight corruption man! I'm not holding my breath.
Najib also said that the declaration letters would remind bidders of their responsibilities, particularly in meeting "their end of the deal".
Ahhhhh soooooo.....remind them of their end of the deal. I can see clearly now (I used this line cos the song keeps playing in my head. ARRRGGGGHHH!!!)
But to be fair Najib did say something that perhaps proved that he hasn't settle permanently in planet X. Yet.
He declared that "the era where the Government knows best is over".
You don't say! Great deduction, Sherlock.
I am sure that one of the above stories is an April Fool's joke by The Star. Actually, I am hoping that it is. Yes?
