Is Rafidah Doing a Zam?

So, our Trade Minister is trying to duplicate the successes of the Mis-Information Minister by spewing cow-dung comments against bloggers.

According to this report, she apparently said:

There will always be people who use blogs on the Internet to criticise the rapid economic growth achieved by the Government [...]

That is stupid. Most bloggers I know crticise their government because their policies have slowed the country down - NOT increase it. If only our politicians in the Cabinet were wise enough to put the country AND its citizens ahead of their own pockets and cronies, we would have been far, far better by now. She thinks we are growing rapidly? We could have been a first world country already if their lot had stopped playing racial games with one another for the last 50 years.

And she had the nerve to say:

Most of these bloggers belonged to or were associated with the Opposition, she said.

“In the past they do it in ceremahs [sic] and now they do it through the blogs. Their criticisms without properly backed facts are pure rubbish [...]

I'm not associated with nor belong to any party, and her comments sounded so lame that it's no longer funny. If she deemed that bloggers crticise "without properly backed facts" then I must say that her lot are the Kings of Rubbish - she being the Queen of course - since they spew the smelliest, dirtiest and shittiest comments ever. And she has just proven my point by making sweeping statements without checking out the facts. I wonder if any of these so-called Ministers surf the web. At the very least, a responsible representative should read and understand where these bloggers are coming from - before seeing fit to make lame excuses just to cover their own backsides - I mean to cover the stench of their own rubbish.

And the last bit:

“Given a new mandate by the people in the next general election, it will continue to ensure the country keep tabs on the growth track and that the benefits of that growth are reaped by the people regardless of race and religion.”

Yeah right...Really...they do think that people are stupid. "Regardless of race and religion". Truly laughable. If they had done things fairly, there would not have been so many complains.

Every country has opposition parties. But they don't go to the streets in their thousands just to ask for a free and fair election - which is supposed to be the foundation of any country running on a democratic system. You just don't declare being a democracy out of convenience sake. There is a responsibility to be uphold. And clearly, the present government has failed time and time again. There is no integrity. There is no honesty. And there is certainly no honour.
