Anakdesa – This should not had happened! PKR state secretary Abdul Malek Abul Kassim explanation that most party officials who act as guards were PKR members and not trained professionals hold no water. This is not a matter of not being professionals or not but being human the personnel concern shouldn’t have acted like a barbarian. I understand that the safety of DSAI is important but to assault a media personnel is equally ‘killing’ him politically. As we all know the media plays an important role to disseminate correct information and pictures to the public. What happened here will do more harm to PKR then good! So to the PKR state secretary….please educate your machais before any further damage is done to PKR in the eyes of the rakyat. Action should be taken against these ass-hole barbarians. Don’t let a few bad apples spoil the whole bunch.
The BN machinery will take advantage on this and tell the rakyat the kind of people PKR are , though I believe that it is only a handful of barbarians that are acting like that! These are the type of people that will cause the downfall of DSAI. Thanks but no thanks to these barbarians. To these barbarians….you are not needed. Please step aside. We don’t want barbarians at the doorsteps to a new Malaysia!
