The decision of the Speaker means that from now on, Malaysians whenever reading ministerial statements made even in our august legislative chamber must ask three questions: Firstly, whether the statement by the minister was misleading; Secondly, if so, whether the minister knew it was misleading; and, Thirdly, if so whether he had intended to mislead the House. This is the kind of inquiry that can be imposed on "subjects" of Third World contries. Never mind how Malaysians are going to determine whether any Minister is out to mislead the House. Maybe, we Malaysians need to consult the "datuk" under the tree! Stephen Tan Ban Cheng - Stephen Tan Ban Cheng Tue, 25 Nov 2008 19:55:11 +0100
