"…If our democracy is to flourish, it must have criticism; if our government is to function it must have dissent " - Henry Commager
Quote KJ from Malay Mail :
"As long as he is the Prime Minister, I am not interested in a Cabinet post. I have told the Prime Minister this long before I was nominated to contest for the Rembau parliamentary seat and he had agreed to my stand. I told him not to feel pressured because I don’t want to be part of it."
Of course, I'm sure KJ have a few individuals with him at the time and ready to testify to this claim. If he has, he did not mention them during the press meet. So I guess, we have to trust him.
It would have a greater effect IF he had said it before the elections and not let the younger generations vote opposition just because some of them hate KJ and would not bear the thought of him becoming a menteri via being the PM son-in-law.
Wanna read more, it's here (have a barf bag ready..)
Have you tried to google 'Khairy Jamaluddin' nowadays..?? I won't recommend it if you have a weak heart.
To be fair, wanna get his take on some issues...go to his website, it's here . Leave your speakers on, there's a cool Blues Gang 'Apo nak Di Kato' intro. Just remember to switch it off right after...you'll see. I'm surprised that he did not leave us with a pdf copy of his undergraduate thesis in Oxford, to show us mortals that we need to be guided by an obviously higher being.
There's a link...Khairy and Anwar Ibrahim debate. Clicking it would give you a collage of ONE issue...Oil price. There is no live debate at all...what a waste of time. Khairy chose one issue that can call on Anwar's obvious bluff. (Kampung folks still thinks that the Malaysian government controls World crude prices).
Anwar told Malaysians that during his tenure as Minister...the price of oil was RM1.10 (that was the time the world prices for crude was hovering US14-20 dollars). Now it's RM1.92 (and world prices reached a record high of US100 dollars).
So...Khairy-1, Anwar-0.
Lets get a real live debate on...so maybe we would know more about the ECM Libra share issues debacle.
