I don't get it. What is wrong with the idea that the Selangor state government approving the construction of a modern pig farming project in Kuala Langat? As explained by the MB in Malaysiakini, that area is currently the main pig-rearing area for not just Kuala Langat or Sepang but the whole state of Selangor. Wouldn't a better and more efficient facility be good since problems associated with lifestock farming such as smell, water pollution and diseases would be better handled and contained?
But no, Abdul Rahman Palil (ARP), the UMNO guy who won Sementa state seat uncontested, has a better idea. He urged instead the pig farm should be placed where the majority of the people who eat pork reside (READ: Chinese majority area). Apparently, by placing it there, the problems associated with smell, water pollution and diseases will go away. What about the non-pork eating residents residing along with these pork eaters? Too bad right since they are minorities?
If he is so eager to complain about the smell, what about those facilities where sewerage waste are treated in open ponds? And what about chicken farms? I am sure any resident will be thankful for getting read of these facilities too. But then again, if there is nothing to treat the waste, where does it all go?
This is just so typical of BN mindset. Just trample and ignore the minority rights.

To be fair, who would want a lifestock farm next to where they live? Would you want a chicken farm next to your house? Or a cow farm next to your garden where wondering cows eye those nice plants you have tirelessly cared and nurtured?
The responsible thing the state government can do is to build a facility where the latest and best practices in animal husbandry are strictly practiced to ensure minimal impact on the residents health, welfare and living condition. Wouldn't anyone be thankful if the stench and sight one has to endure with all this while be significantly reduced?
If I argue along the same line as ARP, I would want all cat owners to move out since their pets are nuisance to dog owners and threats to fish, hamster, bird and lizard owners. Also, can we move all chicken, cow and goat farms to those areas where they feast on these animals frequently? While we are at it, can we get rid of those mosques in areas non-Muslims are majority inhabitants?
Coming from a non-Muslim Malaysian of Chinese origin, I would be accused of being an arrogant racist bigot, but coming from the likes of ARP, what is he then?

He can be classified as an ugly, ignorant, stupid beast. Not even any animal are more stupid than such a person. Even animals have brains and use them. But this poor fellow opts to not use his brain and use his arse instead to think. Pretty good show for everyone isn't it??

Upset isn't the right word. More of damn pissed off but just couldn't care less any longer. Hahhahaha!!!
That's why I love blogging especially when I'm pissed off or on a happy high. All released in the proper way, rather than lashing out at some poor soul. :)
