REMEMBER ZAM ZAM ALA KA ZAM?

Remember Zam Zam? Those were entertaining comic years when Zam was labeled the the Minister of MisInformation. Shabery his successor was OK. He did not say much after the Public Debate, although I'd say the man had gumption. I still dont know why he was replaced by this current Rais "Bloggers Beware" Yatim. Four days in a row he ranted about the possibility of what can happen to errant bloggers. Some errant bloggers with weak bladders, I am reliably informed, peed in their pants.

On the day RPK did not show up, a Malaysiakini newscaster asked me for updates on the Rais dinner the previous night. I told him I was not aware of any dinner where bloggers were feted. He asked me for inputs because the media was not allowed to cover the event. I thought the Minister
had thrown a dinner for errant bloggers. I was then alerted to my friend Captain Yusof's (Ancient Mariner) blog. He is not an errant blogger by any stretch of any warped imagination. He is a straight guy, ramrod straight. The good captain surmised that he was the only non-pro BN blogger. Therefore by simple deduction I too should have been invited. But never mind that. I had a fishing engagement that night. Anyway I never liked such dinners because they spoil the sumptious dinner with a dessert of BN leftovers.

This morning, I was amused that the Minister unearthed a cloak & dagger plot by foreign press to unseat our Prime Minister. I hopefully hope our Minister is not re-reading the annals of Zam I and have no ambitions to be Zam II. Please don't Sir, because you are made of better stuff, I can tell. So let's not hear anymore of this plot. We are aware that a foreign body can attack any body. But a healthy body, I repeat, a HEALTHY body can ward off foreign bodies. It is when the body is not healthy that it is susceptible to an attack and possible annihilation by that foregn body.

One good way to prevent these foreign bodies from attacking our body (PM) is to attack them. The paradox - a good defence is the best offence - holds true here. If the minister is so sure and has all the relevant proofs, lets us SUE the foreign press for demonising our PM. This is the least we can expect as onery citizens. But we expect you, our Minister of Information, to institute legal actions against these foreign media. What for lah challenge Zaid Ibrahim for debate? Your predecesssor did and he frothed in the mouth. Don't waste home resources. Sue the foreign devils and you will have my undivided loyalty. Nike them, JUST DO IT!
