PM: 'Newspapers cause trouble!' Posted: 09 Dec 2013 05:48 AM PST PM Najib Tun Razak has blamed the local newspapers for 'misreporting' his statement on Good and Services Tax (GST). The media could be wrong but why did the government take more than two weeks to point out the mistakes? The PM, I believe, has a team of 'great economists' and so-called 'media advisers' who should be responsive enough to correct it the moment such 'errors' occur. This is what The Star and some newspapers reported on November 26. (The Star retracted it a day later but some did not): KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia has a stark choice of either increasing government revenue via the goods and services tax (GST) or burdening the country by borrowing more money. However today, Mr PM corrected 'what is supposed to be corrected on the day of misreporting' - accusing the newspapers that caused trouble. Correcting 'misreporting' is not unusual but a late one will raise a lot of questions, especially on the capability and integrity of a leader's senior aides. People appointed to assist and advise him must act fast, there and then whenever such a 'misreporting' takes place, instead of buying time. That's the problem with some senior aides. They always think they are the best for being chosen to serve a prime minister but sorry to say, they are very slow and 'lembab!' Do they (the advisers) really read newspapers... or makan gaji buta? |
