| Subscribe in a reader | Subscribe to poobalan.com by Email PM was talking about equality, or the lack of it, that the Penang government plans to adhere to by using open tender system and pledging to be transparent. He says equality is not same as fairness. Yes, true to a certain extent. However, the opposite of being equal (using discriminative evaluation), means unfairness if the factors considered are irrelevant or not able to improve on the quality of work. My take is forget on worrying about equality or fairness. What the rakyat wants in quality. That should not be compromised. There should be some programs to help the under-privileged, the poor, the disabled, the budding entrepreneurs etc, but not at the expense of other groups or by sidelining others. If not, the programs will be misused by selected few , resulting in more unfair distribution. » Read more: take the e out of equality
