Malaysians – the readings ones, at least – are treated to an orgy of financial shenanigans by segments of the Government arm that borders on sheer criminality.
And yet…
The Auditor General’s Report comes with a BANG! and then out it goes with a whimper.
Just like a circus, you get entertained, going Ooh and Ahh at the right junctures and, then, the whole troupe leaves.
Good Bye, folks. See you again next year. And the next. And the next.
The AGR circus, however, has clowns who pull your nose and earlobes instead of theirs for laughs.
It’s the same old tired script. So much so you do have to question whether the AGR still serves a purpose for being when all it could ever be is a thick book to be kept as an Arkib Negara.
The miscreants who actively do all these procurement-bloating exercise knows the drill too, probably.
Hence the almost nonplussed reactions to the entire expose in siphoning of public funds.
Public apathy? Could be…
A lack of political will? Definitely…
Participatory acquiescence? Borderline criminality…
Fortunately for those busily doing the milking, “Que Sera Sera” is quite high up in the list of Malaysia’s well loved song.
Whatever will be, will be.
Because its one hell of a tired old joke...
