What took them so long ?

The title above is what has secretly been nagging on the minds of every decent, self-respecting citizen in our country for a long time now.

Yes, this "tempe" loaded former chief minister of Selangor and now ex-Opposition state leader has been plundering the state from the day he took office....and on the night he was ousted he shredded every shred of evidence and file, into the wee hours of the morning to cover his corrupt arse. And even with that obvious act of crookedness the public at large( not me.....but YOU !) especially those in UMNO had him still appointed to head the Opposition team until yesterday when he was charged in court for corruptly accepting 2 pieces of land from a crony developer. ( here )

This just goes to show how bandits are groomed and bred in UMNO. And what is more shameful is, such acts of wrong-doings are okayed by all within BN, without as much as searching their souls to admit they were lobbying for a bloody crook. If you knew such crimes of cheating of fellow citizens was wrong but yet you blindly spoke in his defense then you are no better then this crook, if not in action but in conscience.

There were very many allegations hurled against him, from misappropriation of state funds spent flying business class for his entire family, including an entourage of maids to Disneyland in the pretext of a study tour and at the expanse of the tax-payers to allegations of his wife's involvement in some RM10 million illegal transfers of association funds to private accounts to living in a palatial "malaghai" costing RM23 million and an endless list of other acts of deceit but then......arrogance ruled the day and was approved as kosher by UMNO and BN goons.

This rogue with his famous "semuanya ok" ( everything is okay ! ) phrase is finally brought to justice......but the bigger question is, will he actually be tried and charged "fairly" as civil society warrants ? "Fairly" here has nothing to do with his sudden "fair and lovely" complexion of his "tempe" face but will he pay the appropriate and just sentence for his heinous crimes against civil society without fear and favor by our "jesters" in court ?

Then again remember who is still the puppet-master of our questionable and "honourable" judiciary's strings ? Me thinks this is all a charade and this second generation son of a "pendatang" dentist will be let-off with as much as a "slap on the wrist". Wanna bet ?

Now if only this same investigations and humiliation were initiated on that old racist ex-premier...that would be something huh ?.......sigh !

Then we the tax-paying citizens in civil society can renew our faith and hope in the so-called "powers-that-be" !

Till then we have to get used to all this momentary "syok sendiri sendiwaras"
