Of Najib's Bertang Lama and Paris Hilton...


Withdrawal symptoms? Maybe...not sure about that.

Najib asked the people to be prudent when announcing his 5 in 1 price hike which he termed as price rationalisation.

Yet the same Najib who championed prudent spending failed to help Bertang Lama folks in central Pahang out of their poverty! Najib talked about propelling Malaysia into a high income society but the same Najib failed to help these folks to earn decent living!

Najib can listen to Rosmah's 40 minute speech but failed to lend his ear to hear the shortcomings faced by 300 Semais! Aren't these Semais Malaysians too?

Remember Najib's 100 days? Remember his walkabouts in Brickfields, Kg Baru and Chinatown? When is Najib planning to do his walkabout inBertang Lama? Or Is Najib more interested in doing some "personal search" on a socialite named Paris Hilton?

Associated Press (AP) reported about this Hilton gal detained in Corcica whilst travelling along "personalities close to powers in Malaysia". Is this true? Who is this personalities close to powers in Malaysia? Najib should be coming out to declare if this news is true or Najib can pass the task to "mode on-mode off" Rais Yatim. Malaysia deserve to know the truth, more so when the government calls for prudent spending! Are the personalities travelling on their own expenses or on Malaysia's "sposored trip"? Is this where our "savings" go to?

Can Najib afford to swat Bertang Lama issue aside? This is reality. Is Najib ready to face and tackle this reality? Only and only if Ros-semak give him her blessings...

Till then...G'nite M'sia...wherever u are...

Not just in Bertang Lama bro. Drive up to Cameron Highlands by the Tapah road and you will see the same situation with regards to The Semai tribe. They are the forgotten ones.

Yes, just take any of those backroads and you will see them. Cameron Highlands, Pekan, Rompin, Temerloh - just name the place and you can see them trying their best to keep up with the "modern" world.

Why I mentioned those places? Simply because they are in Pahang where HRH makes it his personal pledge to visit the settlements yearly. If Najib cannot take care of these settlements which is another "voters in the bank" for BN, how can we expect Najib to improve the plights of others in Perak, Kelantan, Terengganu, Selangor to mention a few?

Is Najib (and the politicians) are only interested to get Kelahs, Jenahaks, Baungs from these Semais without due care for their future?
If that is so then Najib is getting out of touch with the people...
