Malaysians Counter to Al Gore
ps: This is a joke taken from the internet email. Have a good
laugh but do not condemned.
Following US Vice-President Al Gore's freedom speech in Kuala
Lumpur,
Mahathir called a cabinet meeting to discuss retaliatory actions
against the US.
Rafidah Aziz was first to speak. She again voiced her absolute
disgust over the speech and even vomitted into a basin to prove her point.
"Let's stop all trade with the US!" she shouted. "I'll rather
choke to death than eat another Californian orange."
But Mahathir was less than impressed. "Really, Rafidah, as
International Trade Minister, you ought to know that trade with the US is
heavily in our favour. It'll hurt us without hurting them in the least."
Then Abdullah Badawi puffed out his chest and said: "I propose we
cut
off diplomatic relations, send the ambassador packing and burn
down
the
embassy!"
"You forgot Bodoh-wi, about the 10 billion US-Japan Rescue Fund.
We need that."
The Education Minister chipped in timidly: "How about we recall
all our students from the US? That will also save foreign exchange."
"But we haven't got enough places in the local U's for these tens
of
thousands of students. Do you want them to come back and become
Reformasi supporters? No good!" the Boss said, shaking his head.
Then Tun Daim Zainuddin put in: "How about we launch a speculative
attack against the US dollar?"
"And what have we got to attack them with? Funds from the nearly
bankrupt Bank Bumi? Funds from Petronas, EPF or Tabung Haji?"
Mahathir replied in a voice heavy with sarcasm. "Sorry, they're all needed
to bail out my cronies. Unless of course, you want to throw in your
billions," the PM added slyly, but at this Tun Daim muttered
indistinctly and fell silent.
Ling Leong Sik ventured: "Let's close down all MacDonalds, KFCs
and other US fast-food chains in Malaysia."
"Don't be stupider than what God originally made you. That will
only throw a few thousand Malaysians out of work. Come on! If you
people haven't got any better ideas, you shouldn't be my Cabinet
Ministers."
They were all silent but, suddenly, Samy Vellu startled the
company by saying: "I've got an idea!"
But Mahathir could not help smirking. "Hey, Samy's got an idea! Ha
ha!"
This was echoed around the room, "Hey, Samy's got an idea," and
everybody had a good laugh before Samy could again speak.
"Just listen to me please. I propose we send Ghafar Baba to the
States to make a disgusting speech."
There was a moment of stunned silence. Then Mahathir gave both
thumbs up. He said in a voice full of admiration, "For once, Samy, you
have excelled yourself."
