Today's 1Joke : 23 September 2010

I think this is a funny news. After the few racist principals created so much hoo-haa recently, and as everyone is waiting to hear what kind of punishment waiting for them, our DPM said today that exercising punishment on those principals is beyond the scope of work of his Education ministry. He claimed that the principals are in higher grade, and therefore, they can only be punished by the Public Service Department.

What I think is unreasonable is that it took him so long to tell the people that he has no power to execute as the Education Minister. Another thing is that, he did not say anything about the issue in his position as the DPM. I doubt that the Minister who controls the Public Service Department who has the ultimate power in the Ministry will say or do anything about this.

This reminded me of another "similar" case recently that happened to 988 DJ. Since the DJ did something that the big big boss did not agree to, he was fired within a month of the "offence". Even the CEO was booted out.

No wonder Malaysia is still mundur. Notice the difference between the speed of work done by someone in the private and public sector?
