Attention Diverted On Fuel Price Hike

Has anyone notice that government is doing something to distract our attention away from the recent fuel price hike? Government knows people are now full of dissatisfaction with them and emotions are running high at the moment.

What a coincident that Ian Chin came out at this very moment to expose Tun Dr Mahathir's dictatorship during his reign as PM. He even gave the details of every particular cases. At first I thought it's because he has been keeping it secret for too long and he must let the public know what's going on then.

When think again, questions will be asked: Why don't he mentioned this long ago? Why he choose this very tension moment to expose all these? If permission is not given by the authority, would he has the gut to tell all these? Why only he mentioned about Tun Dr M, and not others who involved?

Very simple! It's because now the situation with Pak Lah and Tun Dr M is at a loggerhead and people would be attracted by whatever issues involving these two. So permission was given for Ian Chin to have total freedom of speech, just tell whatever consider big news to public. Moreover all the major newspapers, all of them controlby BN associates is making all sort of such headlines, and hiding all the fuel price hike issue.

For what the detail of Ian Chin said, I couldn't care more. Hope all of you feel the same, and we should reminding them the current important issue is to focus on the increase of fuel price and living costs. Let's not be distracted by unneccesary issue as such.

Do not let Pak Lah and its administration succeeding in the distraction. More so the case is already 10-plus odd years on and no point in tracing back those old stories.
