We have ‘stupid ministers’ because smart people avoid politics, says Pua

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia does not have “bright ministers” because smart people tend to avoid politics, says Damansara MP Tony Pua.

“When smart people don’t join politics, who becomes prime minister? Stupid people,” said Pua at a Petaling Jaya DAP fundraiser.

However, he conceded that there were “stupid ministers” in both Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Barisan Nasional (BN) but said that “BN had stupider ministers”.
