“It’s elementary, my dear Mahathir!”

Letter to Editor

I FEEL compelled to respond to Federal Territories’ Perikatan Nasional (PN) information chief Mahathir Mohd Rais’ letter to the editor which accused the present government of going on a witch hunt.

A newbie himself, he appears to be totally out of sync with what his voters have wanted to see: corruption being dealt with severely.

Business people, especially those who are not well connected, find it difficult to pitch for government jobs without paying a bribe, especially when the projects are given to people within a certain circle.

In fact, those against corruption are in the majority. Therefore, how can Mahathir claim that “many” are against the witch hunt that he accused the unity government of doing?

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has shown his resolve to deal with corruption, and in no uncertain terms, he said, “Investigate, including those in PKR.”
