I'm sorry, it's called Democracy. "government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system." In Ah Beng's term, it means YOU elected your Government and you are responsible for the outcome and undoing of the Government. It's so easy to blame one man when things go wrong, so easy to forget that the ultimate power vested in that one man blamed were given by the very people who condemn him. it’s so easy just to blame one man.

The biggest achievement for Malaysia is to have a free Press, aka you blog. Who to blame for the government setbacks? Blame Mahathir. Melayu Mudah lupa? Blame Mahathir. Malaysia tak cukup maju? Blame Mahathir. Pak Lah took over the gov not even 10 years but we can see how truly corrupted the gov is. I was once offered a project, but I need to pay an upfront commission. WTH?

How much did Mahathir achieve within the same amount of years that Badawi has as PM. Bear in mind that there were pros and cons during Dr M time and the same goes for AAB. People were complaining so much about DM and they're the same now with AAB. The only difference is that, the groups of people complaining are different. During DM's reign, I tak nampak much improvements or the narrowing of the rich-poor gap. He concentrated too much on the bandar. So since he did a good job at it, now it's AAB's turn to develop the rural lah. As I have mentioned earlier, just because we don't see it happening at our own frontyard, it doesnt mean that no changes have occured. But of course, most of us are quite off the major point and at this, I have to agree with Vincent...you can't expect someone to perform first before getting a pay hike. In the first place, they weren't performing because they were being paid peanuts. Ask yourselves this, WOULD YOU a probably better qualified person, work as a civil servant to serve Msians as a whole? NO. Why? Coz the pay is hardly competitive. We're all in for the money. If you're not then I would love to see you ppl who love complaining so much at the counters of JPJ and etc. The focus should be on how to get the funds to make the pay more competitive and yeah, it's so freaking easy coz you ppl are a damn smart lot. LOL. Know also its 21 years…Badawi how many years? How much did Mahathir achieve within the same amount of years that Badawi has as PM.

No one can deny his contribution to Malaysia. Amongst our four Prime Minister; Tunku only oushine him because he lead Malaysia through its historic moment. In Abdullah's rule, where has Malaysia gone? The promises he made were never fulfilled. His "justice" to corruption were all talk but no walk.

But all the Singaporeans I knew in uni, wanted to work for the government after they graduated. Not because they wanted to serve the country, but because it offered the best pay and the best career prospects. Until the government can compete with the private sector in terms of their pay packet, it will remain as it is. You cannot attract the best minds just by saying "You're serving your country". If I wanted to 'serve' my country, I would have joined the army. Then you have to go back and slap a lot of people, because a year ago when the government raised the salary of the civil servants, people made a fuss about them having to PERFORM first before they get a pay hike. Perhaps that is true, but then you will never be able to get the best people for the job. Now, I never like Singapore and everything they stand for.
