Picatho's causeries

Oh, $#@%! Sitting with my shoulders shrugged up


BN's Rohaizat Othman lost a seat in the Permatang Pasir's by-election on 26-08-09 to PAS's Mohd Salleh Man by a 4,551-vote minority against 9.618 total votes.

After that, Penang Umno chief cum Defense Minister Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said "Since the people of Permatang Pasir didn't want to change, thus the future development of this district will be hauled down."

I find his vindictive remark over the failure on the by-election totally repugnant. Did he abused his power to take the bread out of people's mouth?

Instead of accepting their failure, he had bottled up all their anger and resentment and poured scorn on the suggestion that the district of Permatang Pasir would not be developed further.

It sounded like whatever floats his boat that he has the power to decide the fate of the peoples of Permatang Pasir on development.

Please bear in mind that the peoples of Permatang Pasir do paying their income taxes and are legitimate to be given with appropriate repayment on level playing field. Otherwise they must be fully exempted from taxation.
