  • This current batch of Malay Muslim leaders exemplified by Ahmad Maslan are devoid of any practical idea or implementation capability which are necessary to weather the current crisis. Any right minded Malaysian would cringe in frustration to see the BD government unwilling to use the best talents Malaysia can offer, irrespective of race. We can expect only incompetence, cluelessness, rent seeking and lack of capability from the Cabinet ministers who are totally ill equipped and incapable of steering the nation through the current Covid-19 pandemic.
