Now it is Kerismudin's turn

Some time ago it was Khairy who made him well known for his stupid remark (as usual ) and now it is his bosses turn. What do I mean by this, our beloved Education Minister Kerismudin is going to educate the school children and prepare them for “global issues like peace, environment and the economic crisis".

The New Straits Times reported that the education minister is planning a nation-wide protest against Israel’s actions in Gaza, involving about five million children and 360,765 teachers from more than 10,000 schools.

Hey, isn’t he exploiting the children, just like Jaringan Rakyat Tertindas (Jerit) had been previously blame for using school children for political reason?

Secondly shouldn’t the minister get parental consent before involving children in such "dangerous" activities? Is the Minister making decision without even consulting the parents or is it all going to be BN members children alone.

That’s not the only joke, how would the police react to this statement? Shouldn’t they take any action against the organizers? Fist of all is this an illegal assembly or procession and shouldn’t the police save these children just like what they did against the “Jerit” participants and cordoned them in the open area with yellow ribbon? Would there also be numerous roadblocks all in the name of saving the children from being abused?

During the Jerit campaign a total of 111 participants faced arrests, including 28 under-aged participants who were held in the Rawang police station for one night. Our Bersih, Cekap dan whatever crap Selangor chief of police Khalid Abu Bakar had then however justified the police’s move in holding the children, saying that they were just "saving the under-aged from being exploited". Now where would they place the five million schoolchildren?

More so the Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah Al-Haj of Selangor had also allegedly expressed his disappointment that children in the country were being exploited by irresponsible people out to further their own causes and asked Khalid to take stern action against those who exploited children into taking part in certain activities. So Khalid claimed!

When asked by Malaysiakini, today about the minister’s proposal to involve schoolchildren in protests, Khalid said: "This is a national issue. Since a minister has made such statements, only the Inspector-General of Police Musa Hassan must respond, not me". Musa could not be reached for comments today!

Isn’t this funny? Let’s see what would be Musa’s comments once he resurfaces and what the Sultan of Selangor would say about the minister using some 5 million students nationwide?

This is the poor state of our country being governed by a bunch of idiots calling themselves ministers and civil servants!
