The business of flags

Just last week, I said that an important member of the opposition party, PAS, had ingeniously discovered the reason for baby dumping (check my earlier post). 

Good, now a member of the ruling coalition, Barisan Nasional, has, cleverly, discovered a way to see the national and state flags flying all over the Malaysian city of Ipoh, during National Day celebrations on 31st August, and the birthday celebrations of His Royal Highness, the Sultan of Perak on 19th April. His plan is not renewing the licenses of those businesses not flying the flags in their premises. What a way to get people flying the flags! 

What a way to get patriotism out of people! So this is thinking out of the box……eh?
