Of mistaken identity?

The infamous ketuk ketampi incident has proven that some of us Malaysian really love to talk first, think later. The Police was barraged with criticism and the sympathy to the victim led our PM to order one of the Ministers to go to China to explain matters and woo back the Chinese tourist ( and their dollars) back to Malaysia.

Today, The Star revealed that the victim was NOT a Chinese from China, but a pregnant Malay lady - imagine the effort that went through all the way to China and to find out that it was after all, not a Chinese citizen.

Terlajak perahu boleh di tarik. The opposition had their field day while the government deserve an egg on their face. Our own Police was subject to all the criticism and now some people in the government also join the band wagon in saying their piece. It is time that we stop all these thoughtless ranting and let them do their job with pride and dignity. It doesn't make any better by just talking about it.

Come to think of it, what will happen if this news got out before the Pengkalan Pasir election? Maybe, just maybe, there's a "prawn behind the rock"...?
