The Star (6/7/08): Malaysians are frustrated with all the politicking that has resulted in the people's welfare being not attended to.
University student Nur Izza Mohd Ezani, 24, said she no longer knew what to believe and was “tired of reading about the political drama, especially online.”
“I don't know what to believe any more. Everyone is accusing the other. I feel that things have been blown out of proportion and the rakyat's welfare is forgotten.
“They are so concerned with party issues and the mud-slinging that all else is forgotten,” she said.
A legal secretary, known only as Hajar, 26, said the politicking should end as it was not good for the country and economy.
“They (politicians) should solve the problems among themselves before making it a public issue,” she said.
Those interviewed also lamented over the rising costs of living that was more difficult to manage now.
“The higher income group do not really have to worry about the rising costs of living, but it is the lower and middle-income groups who will be affected,” said a manager, identified only as Chin, 32.
Karigalan, who is the Section 19 MIC branch chairman, said the Government must be transparent and outline the political and economic plan for the public to erase unnecessary fears.
