Legislators busy
\nwith lobbying<\/p>\n
From Rakyat Merdeka<\/p>\n
It is extremely ironic, not to mention embarrassing, to look
\nat the behavior of members of the House of Representatives. They
\nhave occupied their very comfortable seats since 2001. Yet, up to
\nnow, people have never heard of these legislators doing anything
\nworth being proud about. Making matters worse is that the people
\nput considerable trust in the political parties they voted for.<\/p>\n
But the clamor of the people will be meaningless if their
\nrepresentatives turn a deaf ear to it. Although groups of people
\nmake special trips to the House to scream out their demands and
\ngrievances, it has done them no good.<\/p>\n
The question is whether legislators are capable of realizing
\nthe people's aspirations. People no longer want to hear
\nlegislators say, \"We accommodate your aspirations first.\"<\/p>\n
Isn't it more likely that the reputable institution has become
\nfertile soil for profits made from the word \"officials\"?<\/p>\n
As a matter of fact, the legislators should be able to finish
\ntheir piles of work. Unfortunately, this work has been neglected
\nbecause these legislators are too busy with interparty political
\nlobbying.<\/p>\n
They are so busy with their political lobbing that they seem
\nto have forgotten that fuel prices have been increased three
\ntimes this year. Furthermore, the nation seems to be
\ndisintegrating, with chaos in a number of regions. There is
\ncertainly a lot of work these legislators must do.<\/p>\n
