THE UGLY PARLIAMENTARIANS

By: Brigadier General (R) Dato Muhammad Arshad

I am utterly disgusted with the antics of some of our parliamentarian in the current sitting of Parliament. Are they elected to throw scorn at one another and act no better than a court jester, or are they to debate national issues that affect the nation and its people?

Watching them open their big mouth makes me wring in anger. There is nothing worthy to speak of such parliamentarians, except to say that some ought to return to grammar school to be taught manners. Indeed I am disgusted, because some are schooled in the best institutions, raise by reputable families but sadly, their behavior in the august house of Parliament befits those stray beggars that roam aimlessly in the streets.

Indeed I am sad, because we Malaysians voted them to the august house thinking that they are the best to represent us, but now we feel cheated and decorum is just being thrown out of the window. I have now told members of my family to switch off the TV the moment recordings of the parliamentary sitting is shown, and to ceased reading anything related to the current parliamentary sitting.

God bless Malaysia.
