Past politicians equally guilty for their indifference

By J. D. Lovrenciear, Semenyih

The current political climate in Malaysia is at its near boiling point. Any wrong move will b catastrophic for the nation. And it is sure to set the people backward from other neighbouring countries.

For a nation that was once prided as the “Rising Tiger of Asia”, today we are being sneered by the global village. Our sins of sex, sleaze, greed, abuse of freedom and power, corruption, and the many crimes of omission – all these are getting us into the rut deeper by the day.

In the wake of these turbulent times, our past politicians who rode the high waters of success, benefits and luxury remain indifferent to what is happening within our political deep waters here.

Some of these past politicians are basking in the gains of their spoils here and overseas. Some are milking through their banking networks overseas. Others are basking on the Gold Coast. Many more are in all probability enjoying the sunshine, wine, dine and songs in far away breakaway destinations.

And likewise, others are quietly raking in millions here while the sagas of sin and sleaze build up in a crescendo.

It is about time that all these personalities were identified and exposed. They have a categorical and  moral responsibility to speak up and gang up to do something constructive to save this nation.

Let us hope that some responsible blogger or hard working parliamentarian can kick the ball to bring out these past politicians who gained every sen from the rakyat and are today enjoying their ill gotten gains or reaping their fruits of labour while they were in authority.

A silent and indifferent past politicians is nothing more than a traitor to King, nation and citizenry.
