Do you have to be a rocket or nuclear scientist to understand that any power generated by coal is harmful to the environment? the answer is absolutely NO!..even a standard six student nowadays can tell you the fact easily. Now..lets refer to the comment made by our very own Yang Berhormat which was published in Daily express 22/12/2009-under the heading "Palm City' nickname for Lahad Datu'. That 'very smart' Yang Berhormat argued that electricity power plant based on the coal energy is not something new because many states such as Perak, selangor and sarawak had generated electricity power using coal. I cant help but laughing at this brilliant reasoning. When will be our Yang Berhormat learn to do more smart, intelligent and articulate reasoning? Since this Yang Berhormat gave such a silly reasoning it deserved a dumbest response too, I am not going to waste time to argue in a very scientific manner which they will never understand.
Dear YB,
I am agree with you that coal-fired power plant is not something new in this country, you even shows that you know this subject well by saying that other states also had generated electricity power using coal. But have you ever bother to look at the impact of these coal-fired power plant to the environment of the area surrounding them? If you havent and I bet my money you didnt then I say that your reasoning for defending the coal-fired power plant suggestion is worst than the ability of reasoning by a standard three pupil. Are you aware that by giving this type of reasoning you also saying that the muslim malay also can eat pork because the non-muslim chinese eat pork and you see this non-muslim chinese who eat pork are all wealthy and healthy? While the malay muslim who didnt eat pork constitute the largest group of poor people like in kelantan. (sorry for my chinese friends). Or perhaps you also trying to say that muslim malay overseas can drink alcohol to keep their body warm in a freezing winter just like the 'mat salleh who drink alcohol and can stand the freezing cold winter. Are you really trying to say that way?
YB, you are elected into your position now by the people not by the party you are representing. Democracy is all about the government of the people, by people to the people. I am sure you are well aware of this, if you not then just treat this as a gentle friendly reminder! Have you ever consulted your constituent before come out to the media and defending this project by saying that it was badly needed and from the way you argue it seems that the coal-fired power plant is the only answer or in my word the world will come to an end / kiamat if this coal-fired power plant is not built. Well, I respect your right to defend the policy of your own party and that is what you should do as 'a loyal member' however I do hope that you wouldnt forget the people who put you in your position today.
