In Malaysia, this is the typical conversation we, the public,
always have among us:
Citizen A: Why is this design so stupid?
Citizen B: Government did it.
Citizen A: Oh I see.
Citizen A: Why is this road so lousy?
Citizen B: Government built it.
Citizen A: Oh I see.
Citizen A: What nonsense is that guy talking about? So
stupid!
Citizen B: He is a government officer.
Citizen A: Oh I see.
etc etc etc.
I'm not trying to be funny here. It's the plain truth. I know.
