Murugiah also checkmates future attacking moves by announcing that PM Badawi himself praised him. So Kayveas, Saravanan, Syed Hamid etc. can keep their less-than-smart and annoying comments to themselves. Only that there’s a small matter of getting endorsement from PM-in-waiting.
Deputy Minister in Prime Minister’s Department Senator T. Murugiah,
whose aggressiveness in overseeing the Public Complaints Bureau has
landed him in trouble with his party boss, claims he has been praised
by the Prime Minister.Murugiah, who is the PPP Youth chief,
said he recently received a call from Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi
to see him in Parliament.“I was on medical leave then. When I
met him, he praised me and said I was doing a good job (with the
bureau). What more do you want?” he told reporters after chairing a
meeting between residents in Kg Pandan and City Hall authorities at his
office yesterday.Adding
that he had “no issue” with Kayveas, Murugiah said he had met the
latter on Monday and that “he had then said nothing about the letter”
to him.“I have my job to do and I don’t have a choice about
this. He (Kayveas) is my boss and mentor, and he groomed me. I am
always grateful to him,” he said.
Kayveas and PPP are just a bunch of clowns… 🙂
