Poem Title:
Poem
Today, the local daily papers highlighted a man of honour... Deserving of his honorific title Datuk bestowed on men of honour... Given his loud and strident calls for those holding the reins of power.... To better buck up in all matters of governance, to honour pledges while in power.. From relative obscurity, this quiet man has been religiously executing his duties... As a number 2 man in the high office called the Special Branch, overseeing matters of security... Given that his beloved nation now staggers under a yoke of suspicion and bad governance.... He is steadfast in his intergrity pledge of topmost quality service to the king and nation... Loud is his urgings for civil servants to uphold pledges of intergrity and loyalty... It is obvious his strong conviction is born out of a man of the highest principles... Befitting the post of the Special Branch deputy director.... Today's interview in The Star provides an insight into his character... Clearly it shows he is not easily cowed under political pressure.. And most admirably, not seduced by subtle promises from political masters... Headlined as From Special Branch top cop to enemy of the state... His candour in this news piece is credit to his character... He knows where his loyalty lies and he is highly principled... Admitting that he deliberated well and hard before he launched.... Some very personal and opinionated statements that jeopordised his career..... When in fact he has merely 1000days more to see the tail end of his career... What a ignominous exit for the country's top cop because of his stand on integrity... How many other officers in the goverment dares stand up to uphold such integrity.... This dedicated man daringly calls each spade by its name and no other names will do... Even as in this complex society we live in, a wrong can be whitewashed with blinded loyalty... If only there are more politicians and statesman of this datuk's quality... Our country will not be suffering from escalating racial prejudice... Or economic ills that is plaguing our posperity and currency... Are there more men of integrity and high principles.. Are there more such men to help steer this troubled country...?
