WHERE IS YOUR DIGNITY, KESHVINDER SINGH?

Khoo Ying Hooi

Well, another defection. You might get the response of er, again? Then
it continues with so? And then who cares?

The frequent defection of the politicians is no longer surprising for the

public.

Malim Nawar state assemblyperson, Keshvinder Singh has

successfully put himself as the fourth Perak Pakatan Rakyat
assemblyperson to quit the DAP and turns himself Independent, joining
Hee Yit Fong, and former PKR assemblymen Osman Jailu and
Jamaluddin Radzi as BN-friendly Independents in the state assembly.

He has also apparently turns himself into a joke. Angry and dismay
responses overwhelm the online portals since the news of his defection
broken. He had previously claimed that he was being offered
RM20million to defect, and now he was reported as saying that only BN
can help to develop the Malim Nawar area.

Why is that so?

He claimed that the state and the DAP did not help him to assist his
people in his area and therefore he could not do anything to help his
constituency. He also said that since he is now Independent, the state
should allocate him budget to help his constituency.

In the end, it is about the MONEY, isnt it?

Mr. Keshvinder Singh, I have a question to you. As a state

assemblyperson, isnt that you have the responsibility to source out
the ways to help your constituency?

If this unhealthy political scenario continues, it seems that Malaysia will

not be far from being a land of disgraceful politicians.

Where is your dignity, Mr. Keshvinder Singh?

END.
