Interview with Nazri Aziz: The video clip, the walk, the panel
………..
Q: Do you read blogs?
A: I don’t. I don’t waste my time. The few pieces that people print for me are just rubbish.
I’d rather spend my time to do things that are constructive; that go down directly to the people who are really in need of the help of the government.
Our bloggers are really not up to standard. When they put up something, it’s not something that they want to discuss in a very intellectual way.
It’s more because of their anger - the language they use. Why should I read all this rubbish?
When the standard of our bloggers is upgraded, then probably I will look at what is written.
But anyway, they are a minority. My concern is for the majority.
………..
Q: Is there anything wrong in walking for your beliefs?
A: No. But that is the way of the opposition. If you are a political party, we can understand. But if you are a respectable society, that’s not an honourable way to do it — not when the government accords you respect.
How can you bring yourself so low? The moment you do that, we don’t respect you.
If I say to you, “M****r*****r you!”, can you say, “Eh, let us sit down, we’ll talk about it.” No!
You are lawyers, man! People respect you. So, do it in an honourable way.
When the president of the Bar Council wants an appointment with the PM, she or he gets it. That’s how it is. That’s what I wanted, and I would have accommodated that.
But they didn’t contact me. I was waiting. Ambiga knows my doors are open.
Discussion:
The ever eloquent Nazri comes up with another gem for the archives! Not only is it alright for ministers to swear in Parliament, it is now alright for ministers to swear during an interview with a newspaper (without even bothering to tell the reporter to take that off the record). Anyway, for someone that complains that he doesn’t read blogs because of the language, he certainly is very polite in the interview isn’t he?
Actually, I can imagine being friends with this guy, because we seem to love swearing so much. Lest this blog be seen as an opposition vehicle to discredit the government, let me be clear that this blog will post anything worthy that comes out from any Malaysian’s mouth. Therefore, to show my neutrality, I would like to stump for the re-election of Nazri for the next elections. With Nazri around, the blog should not be found wanting in quotable material.
And for the chaste ones reading this and trying to figure out what “M****r*****r” means, it’s something to do with a person, usually male, that possesses an excessive loving of the female being that birthed you.
Nazri says the darndest things!
