to bow-tie or not to bow-tie

“This is a trivial matter. Please do not make ourselves a laughing stock. There are more important matters to be discussed. This is the Parliament, not Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka.”

so rightly said by lim kit siang in parliament yesterday.

and what do you think they were arguing about? on whether it is appropriate to wear bow-tie!! indeed such a trivial matter.

i happen to catch the 8.00pm news on NTV7 and this argument was shown. i was thinking to myself – what lah, our ministers have nothing better to talk about. and the TV station had to show us this clip? why didn’t show us clips of more important issues that they were discussing? oops. ok i know. don’t answer. 🙂

UPDATED: lim kit siang has blog on this:
the ‘bow-tie’ fun and frolic of the gang of 16 BN MPs
