Zakaria must also resign as Port Klang Assemblyman when he is not fit to continue as Klang Municipal Councillor

The Sultan of Selangor has today directed the Port Klang State Assemblyman Datuk Zakaria Md Deros to resign as Klang municipal councilor.

This has been followed by the ultimatum by the Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr. Mohd Khir Toyo that Zakaria would be removed as Klang municipal councilor if he does not resign as councilor by November 8.

Zakaria is one of the NEP-putras who had waxed obscenely rich under the New Economic Policy while the masses of ordinary Malays remained poor, allowing the Economic Planning Unit (EPU) to use a very flawed methodology to compute 18.9% bumiputra corporate equity after 36 years of NEP permitting astronomical leakages of wealth accruing to privileged Umnoputras but which do not appear in the EPU calculations.

It is also a sad reflection of the poor political leadership in the country that the Sultan of Selangor has to intervene to stop the abuses and excesses of power by Zakaria.

It is a triple shame. Firstly a shame to Zakaria. Secondly to the Selangor Mentri Besar as it is Mohd Khir Toyo who should have intervened to correct Zakaria and not wait until the Sultan of Selangor had acted. Thirdly, it is a shame to the Prime Minister and UMNO President in not taking action to check Zakaria from his scandalous escapades.

The directive to Zakaria to resign as Klang municipal councillor should have come from the Prime Minister and Selangor Mentri Besar without having to involve the Sultan of Selangor. This can only reflect on the poor and weak political leadership by both the Prime Minister and the Selangor Mentri Besar.
This is however not the end of the Zakaria caper. If Zakaria is not fit to be Klang municipal councilor and must relinquish the post as directed by the Sultan of Selangor, how could Zakaria be fit to continue as Selangor State Assemblyman.

Having to give up the Klang municipal councilor’s post, Zakaria is honour-bound to resign also as Port Klang State Assemblyman. But who will give Zakaria such a directive so that a by-election could be held to have a new State Assemblyman is elected – will such a directive come from the Selangor Mentri Besar or Prime Minister?

To me, Zakaria is just another standard or typical ill manner politician. He is being trained to do what he is actually doing right now, that is to suck and leech from the position he is in now and hope it can be a past tense for very near future....

To in order to effectively punish people like them, is to hurt them at their very own game, that is to make them PAY $$$ / RM and lots of it .....

If let me set the game of play, I would ask the person in charge to 'rampas' what ever he/she had in hand and plus the penalty + jail time.

This way we can assure that they had been busy for nothing all this while, and jail time of the whole length of the period of time which they started the game....

I know alot of unfairness question will be surfaced...but its a good start and any start is a good start as we know the BOLEHLAND never even try to start ....
