Really?

It seems there is actually a government circular issued more than 30 years ago on how to address government officials.

Many of us now address policemen as Tuan, especially when we have been caught committing a traffic offence. Now we are told we don’t have to.

But really, do we have to call our MPs tuan? Why should we?

They are supposed to serve the people… and most of them don’t even do. Look at the state of the country….

Or the toll we are now paying. The toll concessionaires are already raking in billions above their construction cost and we are still paying…

Surely it would not have taken an idiot to know that the toll concession agreements made with the companies were lopsided. But surely they knew and didnt care… and we are supposed to call them Tuan? My foot.
