Now that the contractor for hospital maintenance, Faber Mediserve, has caused injury to the top cop in Penang, we finally hear some low-quality bullshit from the Health Minister. Those interested in the bullshit can visit:

If one reads Lim Guan Eng's letter, it is clear that this contractor is completely unfit for the job. http://limguaneng.com/index.php/2011/06/20/surat-yab-lim-guan-eng-kepada-menteri-kesihatan-malaysia-dato-seri-liow-tiong-lai-untuk-membatalkan-kontrak-perkhidmatan-penyelenggaraan-oleh-faber-medi-serve-sdn-bhd-untuk-semua-hospital-di-pulau-pin/
My immediate thoughts on - change the staff of the maintenance team. So, which unfortunate hospital is going to bloody get this team of clowns? Shouldn't this team be replace (sack and hire a new team) rather than replace? Also, why isn't there a bloody enquiry before sacking? Is it because they do not intend to sack anyone? Shouldn't the less-than-honorable Minister be asking for a full report from Faber and make the report public? It does concern the public right?
But alas, the Minister appears to be the spokesperson for Faber. You know... most spokesperson for a company would be paid by the company.
Not covering or securing a work site is an offense under the Health and Occupational Health and Safety Act. But no news of anyone being charged. If it was a private hospital, one could argue that Faber Mediserve was helping the hospital generate more business.
Then, the stupid Minister went on to say "As long as it is public space, they need to do their job properly." What the fuck? You mean if it was a private hospital they could demolish the place? Or they are allowed to increase the rate of industrial accidents for their own workers? Or injure doctors and nurses so long it is out-of-bounds for the public? Or kill-the-top-cop if it was a Generator Room?
Then this asshole goes to blame the age of the hospital. If that contractor cannot maintain an "old" building, get a new one - on a proper tender basis, of course. Certainly the hospital did not age overnight, and neither did any of its patients.
Even when such a serious accident has happened, all he could bloody say is "action MAY be taken". What kind of action? Shouldn't the buggers be sacked?
If he ever says that his hands are tied in appointing the contractor, I say, we get someone else who can get the job done of sacking the contractor. Bloody idiot. The part that gets me angry is, he really believes we 'stupid' Malaysians will accept such idiotic explanations.
