Parliamentary Comedy: Of Kepala Pusing and Canned Food!
via theStar:
MANY MPs must have found last week’s Parliament sitting to be a little duller than usual as all the excitement was centred in Machap. Some MPs, however, decided to brighten up the mood by cracking jokes and passing witty remarks. To some backbenchers, nothing could be better than picking on the opposition MPs, who also played along.
Nazri tried to tell Opposition Leader Lim Kit Siang that there were no vicious intentions when Umno Youth chief Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein raised the Malay keris at the Umno general assembly last year. He said Kit Siang should not feel threatened by the keris if his conscience was clear.
“Just like when I went to Chinese events in my constituency, I was greeted with Chinese kung fu demonstrations and the kun tao.
Nazri, too, was laughing but little did he know that kun tao means “canned food” in the Cantonese dialect.
Almost always never fails to crack me up…sighz…these guys always manage to find some crap to talk about while wasting precious parliamentary time to discuss other more urgent issues.
