1 Malaysia, People first but no referendum for something that affect every citizens



It's ironic how the BN government action and its speech is in direct contradictory. The 1Malaysia slogan is:"1Malaysia, people first, performance now."

Yet, when it comes to something that will affect every single one Malaysians (i.e. the people) like the GST (Goods and Service Tax), "There is no referendum. Parliament is the best place to decide." That's what BN government said.

So, People should come first, but when comes to a new tax that would burden every single people on the street, people have no say, Parliament will decide, where the BN government have the majority, where the BN government can bulldoze the tax through and there is nothing that the people (whom should have come first) can do about it.

Talk about walking the talk...
