我们都是政治破产者

If we truly uphold the spirit of democracy, we should respect differing views, even if we cannot concur with . The Deputy Prime Minister can voice his views on the results of the Bukit Gantang by-election, and so can I.

I see nothing wrong for him to express his observations and views. Nonetheless, I insist that the fund allocations pledged or disbursed to the people during campaigning should be viewed as the Government's obligation to taxpayers. The issue of gratefulness does not arise at all. This was clearly stated by me when I publicly made my comments on the issue.

Only the politically bankrupt would exploit such a scenario involving differing views to demand an apology from me for others' utterances. To individuals like Lim Kit Siang, anything he couldn't concur with should never be given any room at all.

翁诗杰：慕尤丁提看法没错

针对林吉祥的批评，翁诗杰即时在其部落格上回应说，他秉持民主尊重异见的精神，认为慕尤丁针对武吉干当补选成绩发表本身的看法并没有错，但是他本身也可以提出不同的看法。翁诗杰也坚持，在选举期间发出的拨款应该被视为政府对纳税人的义务，而感恩的问题并不存在。

他抨击唯有政治破产者才会利用存在不同看法的现象，来要求他为其他人的言论道歉，“对类似林吉祥的人来说，所有他不认同的看法都不应该获得任何的发表空间。”

可悲，马华总会长说只有政治破产者才会存有不同看法的现象。
那我们大家不是政治破产者吗？
