IF I were a Yang Berhormat...

I would probably spend a lot of time thinking of a way to ensure that I am constantly in the limelight — to remain or become more popular. And I will see to it that I am always associated with something good that has happened. One way or another I will make sure that the rakyat is aware of the good things that I have done for them — even if that is not the whole truth...


IF I were the YB dealing with the Seagull Express 2 tragedy, I'd arrange for a search-and-rescue mission for possible survivors. I would order the Marine Police to take all the necessary actions to get everyone involved — including the media to cover the event.


BUT! no one shall embark on the mission until I give the green light! I want to be in the boat too, you see. The mission shall not commence until — and only until — I arrive at the scene. And IF I arrived late, then everyone will just have to wait. Be patient, for goodness sake! Then, with any luck, if we find any survivor at all, absolutely no one is allowed to pull the survivor out of the water. I will do it personally — after making sure all the cameras are ready, of course. And that will make my day as a YB... If only...


But alas, I am not a YB; and I don't think that I ever will be one. But IF by a stroke of miracle I do become one some day, perhaps I will be a famous one. The rakyat will probably write and comment about me in their blogs...
