Quoted from Malaysiakini.com:
PM: Up to Gerakan to decide on Lee
Andrew Ong | Apr 22, 08 10:37am
Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said he would leave it to Gerakan to act against its former deputy secretary-general Lee Kah Choon, who has accepted a director’s post in the Penang Development Corporation (PDC) and InvestPenang.
Gerakan, a component party in Barisan Nasional (BN), had been leading the Penang government up to the March 8 general election, when it fell into Pakatan Rakyat (PR) hands. “It is for the party to decide. It is up to Penang BN to do what they want. For me, it’s okay as long as there is no clash in policy,” he said at a brief press conference after attending a function in Kuala Lumpur today.
“Perhaps this opens ways for cooperation (between BN and PR).”
Abdullah, who is also BN chairperson, was commenting on Lee’s acceptance of the offer to join the two key investment development agencies in the Penang government.
Today, he flip-flopped, like expected and said “Ex-Deputy Secretary General Lee Kah Choon’s acceptance of investPenang Chairman’s post and PDC Director posts is against the spirit of BN”, as per quoted by The Star alert via sms.
It seemed PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah conveniently changed his mind again, most probably after consulting ‘Level Four’ outfit!
GOD HELP US ALL!

I only just gave him a verdict of being a little better than all the other clowns in his circus….
What a let down!!!
Memetik Gus Dur, mantan Presiden Indonesia,
“Di Indonesia, ada empat orang gila yang terkenal. Yang pertama, namanya Bapak Sukarnoe. Dia ini, gila perempuan. Yang kedua, Bapak Suharto. Dia ini, gila harta. Yang ketiga, Bapak Habibie. Dia gila, gila kuasa. Yang nombor empat itu, saya, Gus Dur. Mereka yang memilih saya itu yang gila……”
Bukan salah pak lah kalau dia terus menjadi PM selepas bulan disember ini kerana bukan dia yang memilih untuk terus jadi presiden umno…..
Ermmm… Paklah. Apa la sangat yang boleh kita expect.

Geli hati baca komen pasal gila tu….
We need a leader badly especially with the food scarcity and recession looming at the corner.Our PM still thinks that we will not be affected and has no idea on how to overcome or soften the impact on us.
Jikalau demikianlah cara pak lah
Andai 30 MP dari BN ubah arah
Kepada PR yang menunggu tabah
Bersahaja pak lah,“..dah nasib lah“
