When I am the Prime Minister

day_clock_wince.jpgBlogger I am A Malaysian is annoyed at the political state in Malaysia today.


---


i am really getting annoyed and impatient that the government of the day is not doing its job. By its inaction, it is allowing the country to waste away day by day. Just look at what is happening around us and you’d think it a miracle we have survived thus far.


But time is running out.


Of course, the people are looking to one person whom we call our leader to do the decent right thing. But it looks like the one that we currently have will forever be clueless. And no one in his cabinet seems to have any idea as to what to suggest to the poor sot what he should do.


If, after an extensive and exhaustive search for the illusive one still finds us lacking, and no one has the gumption to tell our CEO to take a hike and take over the business of seriously running the country, i am sacrificing myself for the toughest job in the world.


i know i will not have the luxury to doze off as and when i like but, heck, someone has to do the job, right?


Read what i will do for the people, king and country when elected as Prime Minister. See if you will find them appealing enough for you to give me your support.


Here are just some of the immediate actions i will take. Please understand, i cannot share all my ideas here just in case someone steals from me. Here goes …


1. i will appoint reliable and capable Malaysians of any hue, any discipline, any political party, any gender (in short, anyone i know who can do the job) to form the cabinet as long as they are not corrupt, racist, cronyistic and nepotistic.


2. i will reduce the price of petrol to RM1.00


3. i will reform the judiciary, the police and the civil service - necessarily in this order.


4. i will reinstate the Constitution back to its original form, the same document that first ensured our country’s independence from the British colonialist.


5. i will give the guilty ones the opportunity to voluntarily return 90% of all the stolen cash, properties and resources that belong to the people and the country.


6. i will prosecute those who did not take advantage of point number 5 even if my parents and grandparents were involved.


7. i will abolish the ISA, the OSA and all the other A-ending Acts that are stifling and unnecessary.


8. i will re-nationalise our public utilities that involve water, electricity, telecommunications, roads and highways.


9. i will make the provision of healthcare the sole responsibility of the government.


10. i will re-introduce and implement the New Economic Policy in its original form and to the letter.


11. i will abolish all independent schools that teach in the languages of the mother-tongues of Malaysians and incorporate them as part of the curriculum in all the National-Type Schools.


12. i will mandate free education for all Malaysian citizens up to university level.


13. i will eradicate hardcore poorness affecting our citizens wherever they may exist in the country.


14. i will make Petronas and the Anti-Corruption Agency report to and answerable to Parliament.


15. i will revamp our public transportation to be better than our neighbour down South.


16. i will revive our agricultural sector and give it serious priority and no one can hijack the fertilizers meant for the farmers.


17. i will outlaw all race-based political parties, policies and statements.


18. i will make it unlawful for the government of the day to withhold development funds to opposition-held states.


19. i will insist on the rule of law and no one is above the law including myself as the Prime Minister.


20. i will dictate that the cabinet ministers, including myself, will rely on public transport for all their commuting for one whole week every month. And once a week they must eat and drink at different public places and mingle with the rakyat and pick up the tab.


Enough. i should stop now before i give too much away to the competition.
