MPs should be more patriotic and national-spirited

Usually I am against such or any kind of protest which I believe would not yield any benefit to the public. But for this, though I don’t support the protest but I do share the sentiment and the feelings of Malays in our country.

First of all, it is very unbecoming to use an American Flag to wish Raya Greetings and it came from an elected national leader. Not sure he did it with full knowledge or it’s just an honest error. But sitting in a highest position as Member of Parliament he should be more sensitive and careful with every of his acts. No reasons or explanation can be accepted from him.

Indeed Members of Parliament should be more patriotic and national-spirited than ordinary members of citizens.

One of the reason I don’t support the Hindraf rally in 2007 is because they carried a picture of Mahatma Ghandi and were pleading to Queen Elizabeth. Instead they should have carried Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra’s picture and bring their grievances to DYMM Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di-Pertuan Agong to whom our loyalty and allegiance should be.

Depicting Duit Raya as Dedak is just another blow in the bud. No proper-thinking people will equate Duit Raya which is part of customery practice to an animal feed. Nga Kor Ming should check his brain properly for having such a retarded mindset. And it is not an honest error but intended action just to provoke and seek cheap publicity.

Such things are not new with DAP leaders. Some of their leaders are famous for doing caricatures, videos, etc just to humiliate other leaders and poke fun. I wonder why these people have been elected at the first place. Instead of doing their job properly they goes around wasting their time and ours indulging in unnecessary things. They should use all and whatever resources available to serve their constituency or the public in general.

All I can put it is, they are still immature leaders and seeking cheap thrill and publicity. And Nga in particular should resign as an MP. Clearly with due intention he has provoked, shown his hatred mindset and stirred race and religious sentiment.
