COMMENT | It’s quite scary to think about the incident that happened to former economy minister Rafizi Ramli’s son and wife.

How they were assaulted and then his son was attacked with a syringe is just something too absurd to think that it could happen in Malaysia, isn’t it? It’s the kind of thing that makes you want to throw your hands up in the air and ask, "What the hell is wrong with us?"

Then again, I've been around for a while now, watching Malaysian politics unfold, and I've seen a lot. Political theatrics, mudslinging, character assassinations - it's all part of the show.
