Nobody knows about Jessie Ooi prior to the debate between MCA President Chua Soi Lek and DAp Secretary General Lim Guan Eng, and I believe most people may have forgotten what was said by these 2 Chinese leaders.
Everyone (I assume, as far as I am concern)seems to be more interested in Jessie Ooi. Yes, she is the one who posed a question to Lim Guan Eng, which got her all the attention she needed.
The debate was about Malaysian Chinese at the Political Crossroads, and Jessie Ooi's question leave everyone puzzled. Speaking and later screaming in Mandarin, she say:
"Chief Minister Lim, I am half Penangites, you said just now you wanted to reduce the people's burden, secondly, you all made a lot of money, I want to say that you misleaded the people, because Cukai Pintu (door tax?) increased, everything also increased, including AFTER 10:30pm, I personally witnessed TWICE that the whole street is already no cars, but you still ask your enforcement officers to toll people's car, leading to fights and blood over each head, THIS NATURAL / NATURE(? - I am a chinese and I have problem understanding her Mandarin) problem, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO EXPLAIN? IS THIS WHAT YOU MEAN BY REDUCING THE PEOPLE'S BURDEN???????
To view her 40 seconds question that leads her to immediate fame, please see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpuZur09OMU
She does not even need to participate in "30 seconds to fame" She did it within 40 seconds at she is now a popular public figure! but for all the wrong reasons.
Let's us get to know her better and understand her background and her rationale of posing such a question. Very quickly, People conduct background check and reveal that she is a MCA Member, holding a position of a CO-ORDINATOR to the Member of Parliament. She is such a small fry that overshadow the President, stealing all the limelight and also inviting all the cursing and swearing from the cyberspace.
Actually, it is not an unexpected outcome, the majority of the people don't really like MCA as they used to prior to March 08, 2008 General Election. So, when such stupid, nonsense question from a nobody, who can't even speak properly, no manner, wrong construction of sentences, screaming, barking badly like a dog (sorry..a bitch, ) from a MCA member directing to DAP Lim, she should know the consequences.
Please do not mistaken that those attacked and make fun of her are DAP members, NO, many people I come across are non-political parties affiliated. They are just ordinary Malaysian. All are discussing and trying to understand her question, which after minutes, concluded that she is insane.
It is later proven that Penang does not increase the Cukai Pintu (Tax) as claimed, and for the tolling incidents, what is wrong wrong with enforcing the law? Is she claiming that after 10:30pm, there is no need to abide to the law? or she thinks that after 10:30pm, all enforcement agencies are off-work? Is that how BN governed?
If Jessie Ooi is not a MCA member, how much difference would the outcome be?
If she is just a public member, then people may forgive her for barking at the wrong tree and pity her, as she is sadden with all these burden. YES! because, under the current government (BN ruling) It is true that EVERYTHING increases, sugar, water, electricity, flour, petrol, housing, etc so, the public may actually think she actually wanted to direct the question to MCA President Chua!
If Jessie Ooi really want to be famous overnight and yet have the people's support, she should have posed a more simple and factual question like:
"President Chua, you admit that you are a low moral person, who betray your wife and commit adultery, how thick skin are you to think that you have the support of the Malaysian Chinese! (scream) You acknowledge that there are corruption and yet you do nothing! What the hell is MCA doing this while!!!!!!!!!"
Jessie Ooi will also instantly become famous, although she will lose her job, but she win a place in everyone's heart. Unfortunately, she asked the wrong question to the wrong person.
