http://ww...The rise of the modern 'toyols'<br /><br />http://www.thestar.com.my/Opinion/Letters/2013/09/19/The-rise-of-the-modern-toyols.aspx<br /><br />I am still baffled that even in this day and age, there are still “toyols” lurking around stealing people’s money regularly but luckily, the sprinkling of water from a RM10 bottle of blessed water onto your money will stop them from stealing your money.<br /><br />However, “toyols” these days are not those naked and bald-headed short beings whose task is to steal money from the neighbourhood for their masters in return for food in the form of milk and blood sucked from the breasts of their masters’ wives.<br /><br />“Toyols” of today come in RM30,000 three-piece suits, coiffured hairstyles, complete with RM5,000 pairs of shoes, either Brogues or Oxfords from Saville Row or at least a Church (and Lobbs for some), and they are chauffeur driven in Mercedes Benzs, BMWs, Jaguars or Bentleys.<br /><br />They play golf and they smoke top quality hand-rolled cigars from Havana, Cuba – the type that Fidel Castro and his younger brother Raul also smoke and chew on.<br /><br />They also normally have mistresses or if not, “trophy wives” who go round in Italian marquee sports cars shopping either at the Pavilion, Suria KLCC, Garden or Starhill Gallery in Bukit Bintang, if not in London, Paris or Milan.<br /><br />Like their mythical brothers, they take money that does not belong to them and a lot more than what the real “toyols” steal.<br /><br />These are people who belong to the super bumiputra class and who are also very well connected to the top leadership and the people who call the shots.<br /><br />The huge challenge faced by some of our politicians to balance these conflicting demands are causing some of them splitting headaches and some are already suffering from migraine.<br /><br />They are like huge sponges absorbing liquid non-stop and their coffers do not seem to be able to be filled however much they try.<br /><br />Their tasks are made easier because of the availability of many willing parties who do not feel any shame taking rewards or kickbacks from the “toyols” and these are people or “guardians” who are entrusted to manage the money allocated to needy bumiputras termed as “usahawan” (entrepreneurs).<br /><br />Both groups have certain lifestyles to maintain.<br /><br />The new Bumiputra Economic Agenda (BEA) as announced by the PM last Saturday is meant to strengthen the position of the bumiputra entrepreneurs purportedly as a reward for their loyalty to the ruling coalition and it even ignores the other communities.<br /><br />A learned fellow even went to the extent of calling it “unconstitutional”. However, “not finding anything radically new” to quote my friend Wan Saiful, the BEA will succeed only if the implementation is done based solely on meritocracy.<br /><br />However, it will fail if previous practices such as cronyism, favouritism and the dreaded corruption still goes on.<br /><br />HUSSAINI ABDUL KARIM<br /><br />Shah Alamhak55https://www.blogger.com/profile/04469485077248980573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3278896453863897915.post-62569521500977295682013-09-29T23:21:16.924+08:002013-09-29T23:21:16.924+08:00tebing tinggi memang kau kobau pun tak soda yo lai...tebing tinggi memang kau kobau pun tak soda yo lai....hapeh botul kau niAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3278896453863897915.post-74916734555165528162013-09-25T18:28:58.843+08:002013-09-25T18:28:58.843+08:00Saya setuju dgn coretan AA kali ini.
