Read Between The Lines


This is how it sounds today, “Jangan Buat Mahkamah Macam Wayang”. To these, I thank you Your Highness YTM Raja Nazrin Shah, the The Raja Muda of Perak.

Lawyers are bunch of strange people who only like to hear themselves. Their egos are as wide as the valley, Kelang Valley, if they are from Kuala Lumpur. They are so called learned, so called trained to read small prints but they fail to read between the lines of the four huge banners put up at the main entrance of Komplek Mahkamah Jalan Duta building columns.

If you pass the new Komplek Mahkamah Jalan Duta lately, you will notice huge banners on display simply written “Buat Kerja”. The new appointed Lord President on his first day in office opening speech, just said “Buat Kerja”. The Bar Council, the Lawyers applauded, they are happy to see the Courts staffs got told off by the Lord President which resulted to the recent display four huge banners outside the Courts Complex.

I personally think the long huge banner, visible probably as far as the site of the new Istana Negara, was directed to lawyers. These lawyers who think they are too smart, which I think arrogant noisy lot, have fail to read between the lines. The “Buat Kerja” banners are meant for them and not for the humble courts officials I knew all these years. Of course there are one or two bad apples, the rest by the hundreds or thousands throughout the country are very accommodating should you need their assistance.

My message to the Bar Council and to the arrogant noisy irritating lawyers out there, “Stop Berdrama”, enough of your bad acting, you people look stupid for allowing yourself be used and orchestrated by the NGOs, Opposition Parties and whatever pressure groups you like so much.
The message “Buat Kerja”, read between the lines, were meant for you.
