Plenty of talent and ability has been on show in Malaysia over the past days as able voices from all segments of the community have stood against incompetence.

There has been eloquence from politicians, logic from lawyers, good science from deeply frustrated doctors and an upsurge of demand for plain common sense from business and the community at large. Yet the actual decisions are still being made by dithering dunderheads who lack the legitimacy required to rule.

As their so-called State of Emergency has descended into chaos this Marx Brothers administration first declared there would be no reopening of the Parliament. Then (because forced by the increasingly anxious rulers) they agreed to a ‘Parliament’ but without votes or debates or questions or anything else that parliaments do – and just for five days.

After all, there was a ‘State of Emergency’ in place.

Except, now it turns out there isn’t a State of Emergency any more. Following UMNO’s midnight ultimatum it has just evaporated. Excuses are that it was dropped before the ultimatum (on Wednesday as a matter of fact) but the ‘Non-Emergency situation’ won’t come into force until tomorrow, apparently.

Lawyers are banging their heads and demanding evidence of due process.  But what to ask a bunch of idiots who simply ignore rules, lack legitimacy, block questions and create nonsense arguments out of thin air as they refuse to be made accountable for anything they do?

It is plain for all to see these opportunists will keep on saying black is white until someone kicks them out of office, because there is one compelling reason that keeps them clinging on, which they all understand from a life-time of experience. Good old-fashioned Malaysian ‘Money Politics’.
