Prime Minister...,
Since the disastrous March 8 elections, I haven't bothered attacking you much. Well, why should I when the Pakatan Rakyat, Raja Petra and your own Ministers are already doing such a thorough job. And oh, not forgetting all the salivating vultures waiting to push you down the UMNO ladder. There's also the issue of this bloody old mamak who used to be your boss... but that's a different story.
I scorn at your intelligence - or lack thereof - amaze at the voodoo spell your son-in-law has you under, laugh at the blind arrogance of your Government and shake my head at your cluelessness in private but as far as this blog is concerned, I took a break from whacking you and all that you stand for.
Well it ends today cos I'm pissed.
Like REALLY, sort of pissed, you backwater retard...!
Today I spend two hours caught in a traffic jam coming back from work. As I sat in the snarl, watching the faces of other drivers who looked like they were ready to break stuff, I realised that how every single thing that went wrong today all points at you.
Like a Night Shymalam movie or the finale to LOST, everything is related and all dots connect to spell at you 'BN.' Realisation hit me that the two hours of my life that I could NEVER get back boils down to one simple fact. The country got it SOOOO wrong in 2004 when they put you as the gaffer of this country.
How, you ask...??? Shut up and listen.
It rained today. REALLY heavily. As a result, all roads in KUL came to a standstill. Why? Is it because all cars in the capital of Malaysia is made out of paper and will disintegrate in the rain? Hell, no.
Everything came to a halt because any downpour more than 15 mins causes 'flash floods' in the most traffic-heavy parts of the city. As fast as money disappears under Khir Toyo's administration, water levels will rise whenever it pours in this city, causing many parts of the big city to become inaccessible. And jammed. Filled with angry motorists and stranded commuters.
We have a 'SMART' tunnel, which 'supposedly' helps to drain water out during floods. We have public transportation, which 'supposedly' means less vehicles on the road. We have MEGA criss-crossing highways littered with blood-sucking toll booths, which 'supposedly' provides easy access to different parts of Klang Valley.
But that's all our country is good for; launching something and letting monkeys run it. NONE OF THOSE THINGS WORK PROPERLY. Or at all. Is it so surprising? NO. When they screw up the basics like have a proper drainage system so that water does not accumulate during heavy rainfall, what more can you expect?
Simply put, heavy rains are beyond this country's control. How we deal with it is NOT. Or SHOULD NOT be. All the talk about 'winning the five states back' when you can't even address the problems blowing up in your own backyard!
So with the rain causing enough havoc as it is, then came the announcement that effective from 12:00am midnight, petrol prices will increase to RM2.70 per litre from RM1.92.
WHAT A JOKE. They couldn't have timed it better. Only days ago, one of the morons from the PM's Office issued a press statement, saying that prices will increase by August. The PM himself said before earlier this year that there won't be a price hike.
But I guess we all know this is the same moron who CONVINCINGLY DECLARED on Tuesday that Parliament will not be dissolved on Wednesday when it actually did come that day. If he was Pinocchio, he could represent Malaysia in pole vaulting at the Beijing Olympics using his blower only.
So right after the Government assured us that petrol prices won't go up, it bloody well did. And the timing of it. Announcing it will go up the next day. It's like a man coming into a building shouting, "HEY GUYS RUN! I HAVE A BOMB AND IT'S BLOWING IN A FEW SECONDS."
The announcement - as predicted - sparked a frenzy on the roads. Every bloody motor owner drove out all their vehicles to quickly fill up the tanks while it was still pre-hike prices. This caused the laws of the jungle to quickly emerge as line after fuckin' line zigzagged into jam-packed petrol stations amidst the blaring of horns and cursing of profanities in a multitude of languages.
Snarling, bustling and frenzied traffic from every petrol station overflowed on to the highways and unflooded roads already under massive burden of having to carry excess vehicles as a result of other flooded roads, which became the link between a tired worker's office and his home.
And the result? A ROYAL RUMBLE OF ROAD MADNESS, which lasted two hours for me when it usually takes me 20-30 mins to reach home from office.
THE PETROL HIKE! Unbelievable jam is but the beginning. Inflation is bound to hit hard on everyone's pockets. Granted the price of oil is escalating globally. Granted the American economic crisis is having some spillover effect on to world economics.
BUT WE ARE A PETROL PRODUCING NATION!!! Like Saudi. It's 40 cents a litre over there! We're a nation that produces oil. OIL!!! And yet we're saying we can't do anything?!? Simple economics dictates that if you PRODUCE OIL and OIL prices go up, you GET BIGGER PROFITS DON'T YOU!!!@?!
PETRONAS rakes in billions EVERY year. Yet the government says it cannot subsidise us without major cutbacks in other areas like healthcare and shit. Just cutback on the kickbacks and under-counter money and we'll have enough to subsidise petrol to under RM1.00 per litre.
This is what happens when you take local village idiots, count-up-to-10-with-fingers kinda to fill the top posts in the Government and Cabinet. This is what happens when you have a despotic party overstaying its fat-arse stay at the top of the food chain.
This is a joke, I tell ya. First the price of flour. Then the cooking oil. Then the price of pork. Now petrol.
Yes, BARISAN NASIONAL, UMNO and the ENTIRE Badawi Administration. This is YOUR encore.
GET OUT AND STAY OUT OF MALAYSIA FOREVER!!!

The only comprehensive solution is that we have to completely defeat UMNO in the next general elections.
There is a difference between UMNO and Barisan Nasional. I want to make it clear that it is not the Barisan Nasional (BN) government, but the UMNO government. It is not the government, but UMNO. Barisan Nasional is a coalition of unequals, not equals. UMNO is the big brother in BN. Therefore UMNO must be held responsible; and more importantly, UMNO must not be allowed to hide behind the BN banner. UMNO is the enemy, not BN.
I have come to the conclusion that the easy solution is to completely defeat UMNO in the next elections.
In the 2004 elections (11th General Election), the voters gave good support to Mr.Abdullah Badawi. But reforms did not come. Why? Probably because UMNO had done well in the elections. If UMNO had done well in the elections, then the election results tell UMNO that the voters are satisfied with the status quo. If the voters are satisfied with UMNO, then no reforms are necessary. In the 2008 elections (12th General Elections), UMNO did not do well, but she managed to win. UMNO did lose the 2/3 majority in the Parliament, but she did win, nevertheless. Will UMNO undertake reforms now? I would not be surprised if she did not. Why should she? UMNO is still the winner in the elections; and she can plan to rise and may even succeed to rise again. So, as long as she wins, she will never undertake the reforms. So, how do the voters get the reforms that they need? The voters will get the reforms when UMNO is completely defeated in the 13th General Elections. If UMNO wins zero seats in the next elections (13th General Elections), then some other party would have to rule Malaysia. Let us call it Party B. If UMNO is completely defeated in the next elections (13th General Elections), then Party B would rule Malaysia. Would Party B undertake reforms? If Party B does not undertake reforms, then voters would know what to do.
So, the next step for Malaysians is to completely defeat UMNO in the next elections.
