Minister Khairy Jamaluddin Hits A Pothole And Lands In A Ditch. PWD Apologises.
We really felt that tweet talking about 2020 keeping on giving. Hang in there, sir.Pothole, ditch, KJ. 2020 keeps giving. https://t.co/BjZHuo4cvP pic.twitter.com/WZJJn1q8X0— Khairy Jamaluddin ??? (@Khairykj) December 27, 2020
Public works department apologised
While the most regular rakyat like us who pay tax to keep the roads safe will get from such a tweet (even if we tag the relevant authorities) is sympathetic messages from friends and family, the minister got much more than that.Netizens were quick to point out the double standards in the response of the authorities.JKR Kuala Langat memohon maaf ke atas kejadian yang menimpa YB. Menteri dan akan mengambil tindakan segera ke atas isu berkenaan dan mendoakan YB cepat sembuh.— JkrKualaLangat (@JkrKualaLangat) December 27, 2020

Parut kenangan musim covid-19 ni. Saya tak perlu pemohonan maaf dari @JKRMalaysia . Apa yang saya minta cuma tolong ambil tindakan dan pantau jalanraya rosak yang lain terutamanya laluan motorsikal. Kasihanilah penunggang motorsikal seperti saya. pic.twitter.com/5iMCwybRm6

We wish the minister a speedy recovery and hope the relevant authorities work quickly to repair any potholes to avoid similar incidents happening often.Lepas aku baca tweet ni, aku harap banyak lagi menteri2 lain jatuh tergolek dog di semua jalan2 rosak di sekitar Malaysia, terutama Sabah/Sarawak.
