hypocrisy of Malaysia opposition

The Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte (pic) said he had ordered the police to kill his son, Davao City Vice-Mayor Paolo Duterte, if they should catch him being involved in the illegal drug trade.

"My order was: If there's any of my children into drugs, kill them, so the people can't say anything against me," Duterte said during a speech to government workers and groups in Malacañang.

He said he had told his son about his orders to the police: "'My orders (are) to kill you if you are caught and I will protect the police who kill you."

Duterte's order to the police came following allegations of Senator Antonio Trillanes IV that his oldest son was a member of the Chinese drug triad.

"The better. So that I can say to people: There, you keep talking. There's my son's corpse," said Duterte. Salute to the President, Rodrigo Duterte.

This is what the general perception by any man in the street towards national leaders of any countries. The general public not only expect national leaders to be honest but also with unquestionable integrity.

However, this is not the practice in Malaysia especially for this to be applied on leaders of opposition political parties.

In Malaysia, when a leader in the ruling parties commits a crime or faces a corruption charge and is charged in courts, he or she will be asked to resign from his or her ministerial post by the opposition but when an opposition leader is charged on the similar offence, he or she will not be asked to resign or resign voluntarily. The said opposition leader charged in court can still go around the country talking about “ honesty”, “ anti-corruption”, “ save the nation”. What the mockery of personal integrity.

This is the political scenario in Malaysia.

The double standard practice is obvious but people just choose to ignore and keep on supporting these hypocrite parties.
