AFTER THE DUST HAS SETTLED........

In the occurrence of a panic situation,when the dust has settled,people who have taken leave of their senses will return, hopefully, to their senses .

After the dust has settled, what remains of the Teoh Beng Huat incident is a grotesquely gruesome picture that screams of foul play and even murder !

The manner in which both the PR and BN camps shamefully react to the whole situation is a comical reminder of the days of the Cold War when both sides played Black Spy and White Spy. The sticking relevant albeit missing point to the Teoh Beng Huat affair is that there is no such thing as a good spy.

It is apparent that both camps are manipulating the whole issue to gain political mileage and to exercise damage control to serve their own selfish interests.

One thing for sure,the incident raises the security question as to who is in charge when Najib is out of the country - Muhydeen, Hishamudin or Rosmah ? It seems like whoever that person is , was caught sleeping or failed to react promptly to the situation.

If an analogy can be made - when the school Prefect is caught misbehaving, The Discipline Master has to act on it, failing which the Headmaster has to step in but in this instance, was unable to, as he was away on business. So who was calling the shots ?

After all that has been said and done, it reverts to square one. It is all about the implementation of a good, efficient and independent system - when the MACC (the Head Prefect) misbehaves, who/what is in place to hold them accountable and to investigate their misdeeds !?!

Can the school depends on the Discipline Master or even the Headmaster to do act indiscriminately and with professional competency ? The answer is dauntingly doubtful if reports of events that followed are anything to go by.

That aside,questions that begged to be answered are :-

-Why would a young man with so much to look forward to in Life, who was to be married the next day allegedly jump to his death !?! It is a theory as preposterous as to assume that the victim was sleep walking !

-Why was the crime scene left unattended and unsecured till at least a good 24 hours later !?!

-The victim was reported by the MSM that he was last seen by a witness where they met at the wash room but they did not speak, even though they were acquainted to each other. !?! How come !? ! Was there another person , possibly a security personnel and quite possibly,the investigating officer, was present. If so, the purported last person to have seen the victim was someone else !

-The handphone of the victim that was reportedly taken away from him by the authorities went missing and mysteriously reappeared later.

There is only one ultimate conclusion to the Teoh Beng Huat incident - the political demise of either the BN or the PR at the next GE.

If the situation is handled correctly, BN (Najib) will emerge smelling like roses, if not ,all of Najib's PR (public relations) efforts will become undone .

As for PR, if the situation is not handled correctly, a huge shadow will cast on the credibility of the Selangor state government . It will be the proverbal nail to seal the Menteri Besar's coffin and not to mention , a huge set back on PR's attempt to win the next GE.

As far as the Rakyat is concerned, if there is smoke there must be fire. Best of all , it is ironical that it was the PR who called for the MACC to launch an investigation, in reponse to the whistle blower's claim of alleged criminal involvement within the Selangor state government. But needless to mention here, that the operative word was to "investigate", and not "murder", allegedly or otherwise.

It is imperative that the authorities concerned act promptly,indiscriminately and with transparency to get to the bottom of the whole affair ,failing which, to bring in the Royal Commission .

It is the duty of any responsible government to act decently in such a situation to bring closure to allow the victim's family to grieve their loss with respect and dignity.
