Abang Jib.. Pemimpin Berjiwa Rakyat..

He is the eldest son of Malaysia's 2nd Prime Minister & also a nephew of Malaysia's 3rd Prime Minister, he was raised in the 'white house' and grew up among the elite group of Malaysia's society, (i mean have u ever came across a prime minister's son going to school with his bicycle or in a sardine-packed school bus?)


He became the YB of Pekan at the age of 23 unopposed due to respect of his late father who passed away, (ahh 23, at that age most of us were still looking for our first step in this grueling & challenging world, but who are we compared to Najib he's brilliant he's a genius~) He was first assigned into the Cabinets of Malaysia as a Deputy Minister at the age of 25~! yeah nothing to do with his father, remember he was the creme de la creme of his generation~


So when he choosed to board a bus during his meet-the-public tour in Perak, a lot of people were overwhelmed by the gesture of a Prime Minister with such backgrounds, he said 

"It used to be by car but this time we board the bus to meet the people. I want to feel what its like to do away with protocol, There must be no barrier to separate leaders and the people,"

Heartwarming? not for so long~ because last time i was in a Rapid KL or Transnasional bus i vividly remembered dat my seat wasn't a spacious & luxurious leather sofas with coffee table~!

 So i guess that is as good as it can be for him to experience people's hardships, so whatever he said about 'berjimat-cermat', spend the money wisely & blah blah blah regarding fuel & food price hike, it was the comedy of the year~! (fact : asked any hotel manager how much they spent on new curtains, carpet & etc for Najib & Rosmah 1 night stay, yeah 1 night~!)

Well Abang Jib, Michael Jackson said.

'Im starting with the man in the mirror,

Im asking him to change his ways,

And no message could haven been any clearer'

But im afraid that's not your case.

Just for fun comparison this is Nik Aziz's house in Pulau Melaka, Kelantan for decades

This is Mat Sabu's house, a typical 'rakyat' terrace house

This is typical Malaysia's prison cell where Anwar Ibrahim, Lim Guang Eng, Mat Sabu, Mahfuz Omar has been locked up in

Not to forget Tuan Guru Haji Hadi house in Marang

So who really portrayed the 'Man in the mirror' lyric, 'lead by example', 'pemimpin berjiwa rakyat' slogans in their life? you decide for yourself.
