My weekly news: Arsenal , KJ remark , Message to Rafizi

With Arsene Wenger leaving the club, the fans look forward to a new beginning. I think the club needs to build itself from the bottom. Getting the defence sorted as well as better organization of midfielders. We need a strong manager that can whip the players to shape. No change for Arsenal in the EPL, with 6th place, it will qualify for UEFA Europa league in the next season. I think the new manager should focus on winning the UEFA cup final and maintaining top 6 for next season. The reason is that Arsenal has not won a European cup yet, not in the last 22 years. We need that under our belt before we can claim to be a major club. Although Arsenal has the state of the art stadium with a large fan base however, winning a European cup would put us on another level. This would also attract world class players.

KJ claims that BN was delusional and drunk on own Kool-Aid is actually pretty funny but there is of course truth in it. To me, it has affected many sections of our society where we revere a leader too much that even criticizing or correcting becomes a crime or disloyalty. Malaysians need to remove this type of mentality and I have always stood by my principles that anyone should be able to criticize or disagree with anyone based on facts and arguments. Let's start from the point that all of us are humans and therefore, not perfect. Being human means we have weakness, flaws and make bad judgements but the most important thing is to have people to correct us, to point out our flaws and to be open to criticism. This is especially important for leaders and those who are in authority.

Many of the people (rakyat) have echoed this sentiment. We were all very impressed with Rafizi's act of exposing the 1MDB and his work to gain support for PKR and PH. As much as I agree with his argument that leaders should be criticized however, the people voted for Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed as Prime Minister and PH as government in order to sort out the mess that we are currently facing. Therefore, for God's sake please let the PM do his job. We do not know how long we will have him with us and neither does he. I am sure that he wants to do things as quickly as possible. The people as well would like to see him sort things out and retire. It pains me to see him having to deal with all these problems. Did you see Tun? Let us all wait until we are 92 years old (if we are still alive) and then see if we can do half the things he does. Well...by then it will be too late to say how much we admire Tun. Well, I am not going to wait. I will say it now. Tun Mahathir needs a strong team behind him and he has chosen the 4 best people to do that. Wan Azizah is our first female Deputy Prime Minister, no one even thought about that until after PH won the election. We were concentrating too much on getting rid of the previous government and having to breathe normally again. Suddenly, we were like...oh yeah! we have a female DPM. Anyway, Tun has chosen the best people to help him and he needs a strong government before he can hand it to his successor.
