Chow Kon Yeow: 曹观友

Mob’s Crib has two composite posters on the “bocor” fiasco in Parliament. The first one depicts MP Jasin and MP Kinabatangan as Monkeys of Parliament. The second one took a pot shot at BN women MPs and Ministers for not standing up for a fellow woman MP in the face of the most sexist and demeaning remark.

The lady host at AEC show on Wednesday night (11pm) aptly sums up the feelings of womenfolk against the BN duo. “As if they have no mothers, wives, sisters or daughters.”

The Penang DAP will be holding a media conference tomorrow morning to protest against the BN duo.

Maybe other groups or individual can do something to show our disgust at such misconduct in Parliament.

On 4 April I asked in Parliament what action the government would take to counter negative remarks made by foreign car critics Jeremy Clarkson.

What did Jeremy said about the Perodua Kelisa.

“This is without doubt the worst car, not just in its category but in the world”.

This comment infuriated the government. Deputy Minister Suliman Abdul Raman said that Perodua would always be proactive in improving quality and services.

Just over a month, Perodua launched the ViVA to replace the Kelisa.

If Kelisa is so good, then why stop it? Although I do not agree with Clarkson, there must be basic in the complaints that Kelisa lacks safety features to absorb the impact during accidents.

It is good to hear that the ViVA would have more safety features especially the doors.

Maybe Jeremy Clarkson would come out with better appraisal for the ViVA. Hope he does not have to blow up the ViVA to see how good it is.
