The gang of the infamous 40. Tales by an unknown blogger no 85

1. It was reported. 40 government owned companies suffered losses. The auditor general reported it. The PAC must have also reported it.

2. We will not have the government kill the companies off. But we will not ask the government use taxpayers money to bail them out either. Let them die naturally.

3. It's the principle of profit and loss in our economy. The loss part of the equation is even more important.

4. It's that part of the equation that ensures badly and incompetently run companies be weeded out

5. It's the Darwinian natural selection process in economics. The weak are weeded out.

6. Forget the fact that maybe all these GOC are run by bumis. The PM can replace them by abler bumis . Indeed this is an opportunity for the PM to carry out his much vaunted reformasi. Replace them with abler Malaysians.

7. Do a reformasi bit here. Be done, decouple yourself from the business as usual way of saving these loss making companies.

8. Mahathir, red lips Najib, abah cow and abang long Wi will do the same thing

9. Pump in money to these loss making companies, change the chairman or CEO or both with their cronies. Then these companies will suffer the same fate- all will bite the dust.

10. It will be the same story. Good money chasing after bad money.

11. Call to meet the 40 chairmen and CEOs.meet them face to face. Tell them you mean business.

12. Tell them that if within a year, the companies they run are not back in black , you'll retire them. You are prepared to run these companies with abler Malaysians. With or without them.

13. Tell these people that forensic accounting and SPRMs invigilation will be carried out. The companies lost money perhaps due to incompetent management, mismanagement of government funds and corruption.

14. If top management of these companies are malays, there's 95% probability corruption occurs

15. Am I, a Malay being too harsh on my own race?. Here are my reasons.

16. In the 70s, when journalists asked the late tun hanif omar, why does he arrest the Chinese as suspected communist sympathisers?

17. He said that since 95% of the communists are Chinese, there's a 95% probability that the ordinary Chinese are communist sympathisers. That's why he arrests them .

18. Similarly now, if 95% of those caught for corruption are malays, there's a 95% probability that the chairmen and CEOs of the loss making companies are malays who are corrupt. Logical kan?

19. I am also reminded of what pendita zaaba said in 1922. That those who oppress and brutalize the malays, are leaders of their own kind .

20. I am not big on the presumption that Malay bosses are benevolent, englightened and so on . They maybe devils in disguise.

21. If you fucked us, I will not hesitate to do the same to you. Call me betrayer, pseudo Malay or anything. It's no skin off my nose

22. When they made losses, they are jeopardizing the livelihood of thousands and wasting millions of ringgit of taxpayers money. If we reward them for this wrongdoings, something must be wrong with us.

23. This reformasi government ( I prefer to call it this instead of harapan or madani government) must stop this practice of forgiving wrongdoings and wrongdoers, especially if they are malays. Wrongdoings and wrongdoers must get their appropriate comeuppance.

24. We can never get this advice of punishing wrongdoers from the 2nd finance minister for instance. Yes, from the tom Selleck wannabe.

25. In the case of fashion valet for instance ( remember fv?) he was eager to protect and absolve, exonerate, exculpate, whitewash ( take your pick) khazanah and by extension,FV.

26. Where is the reformasi in this? We are supposed to do the opposite to business as usual way, so preferred by past UMNO regimes. Simply because UMNO can't come to equity with clean hands. It will find ways to exonerate wrongdoings and wrongdoers.

27. Remember, this government comes up on the promise of reformasi. It's our piece de resistance, our tour de force, our chef d'oeuvre. We came up not on harapan or madani shit. Apply it in earnest

28. In handling the 40 loss making companies,the PM has only one choice. He must have that iron will in dealing with these miscreants. That's what they are .

29. Don't be overcome by bourgeois sense of justice and by the misplaced genteel sense of fair play. Just need a whip of the cane

30. Please don't let reformasi be just slogan shouts at gatherings. More than a madani government, this is a reformasi government, pak shekh!
