Does Ismail Sabri really care about kampung kids climbing trees to get connectivity?

 I'm actually starting to dislike the current government people in Putrajaya.

The other day, a friend in JB complained to me about PMO people coming up with a programme at the Angsana shopping mall, which was actually part of BN's campaign for the state election.

Civil servants were said to have been ordered to attend the event, which my friend described as "lavish".

He believed that some people in PMO were making money from it.

The whole thing smelled rotten as it was with BN's campaign in their doomed 2018 general election efforts.

I actually wrote about it back then in this post right after GE14

• Two lumps of shit and a question to Khaled Nordin

Someone needs to stop this nonsense. Johor BN doesn't need another round of shit like that.

I noticed that this disease of profiteering is starting to creep in again among people who supposedly working for PM and others in power.

Just look at the 5G rollout issue.

Today The Star came out with this story;

Govt leans towards dual 5G network

excerpts

Ahead of the Cabinet’s final decision on Friday, sources told StarBiz that decision makers within the government are “leaning more” towards the DWN (dual wholesale network) model as compared to the single wholesale network (SWN) model where MNOs gain 5G access from a single provider for a wholesale price.

That single provider is DNB, which is a special-purpose vehicle (SPV) wholly-owned by the Finance Ministry.

Once the DWN model takes off, there will be another 5G wholesale provider, via a consortium privately-owned by MNOs. The second provider will build its own infrastructure without the government’s involvement.

Now, what is this ding dong nonsense is all about?

Why the government is flip flopping on this issue.

They should stick to their original decision on this and not backtracked on it.

Anyway, if they want to have DWN, then don't la come up with the SWN in the first place.

No need to set up DNB and bullshitting about ensuring better connectivity in the rural areas and such.

Just let the telcos take care of everything from the very start.

Let them make more money out of people's pockets with their lousy services.

Ya, the telcos services are actually quite shoddy okay.

This is one complaint

Hello, dropped calls in the 21st century is inexcusable

Well, really, if the government wants the telco vampires to continue sucking our blood, then just say so la from the very begining.

No need to bullshit about caring for kampung kids who have to climb trees to get the telcos' lousy 4G or 3G or whatever.

Now, I suspect that someone really tried to change the situation with the SWN proposal but the guy now is being overwhelmed by those looking after the interests of the telcos and pushing for the DWN model.

We better be on the look out and see who these people are and check how much they are making over the whole thing.

I think they are making a lot, okay.

Seriously, even the argument that the DWN was to prevent monopoly is bullshit.

We all know the DWN will eventually kill off DNB because the telcos will concentrate their 5G rollout efforts in the lucrative urban areas as they have always did in the past.

DNB will meanwhile has to struggle to provide the rural areas with the services and of course it will eventually die off if it tries to do that.

In the end the whole 5G thingy will entirely be run by the telcos and the kampung kids will go back to climbing trees to get connectivity.

The digital divide reached a flashpoint  when 18-year-old Veveonah Mosibin, from Kg Sabanalang Pitas in Sabah, went viral in March 2020 after she posted a video of herself studying on top of a tree in order to sit for her exams.

Meanwhile the bastards in Putrajaya will burp off their filled stomoch from what they got from the whole deal.

Oh, and how much will tax payers' money will be lost if the initial SWN plan is to be cancelled and DNB closes shop to make way for the telcos' DWN?

Does Ismail Sabri care?

Sigh.

So much for all that Keluarga Malaysia jingoism.

Umno people in particular better start asking Ismail Sabri what the hell his people are doing.

If he cannot answer, then they need to kick him out right very now.

Demand for GE15 to be held as soon as possible before more damage is fully done.

Umno people, you all better set up a new government and stop the nonsense and bullshit right now.

End the gravy train before it even start or the rakyat will sooner or later punish you all again like in 2018.
