‘‘Prepared to consider’ is not the same as to ‘agree in principle’ or otherwise.’

Law Minister Takiyuddin Hassan’s continued bungling in justifying the unjustifiable discharge of film producer Riza Aziz is shocking and unacceptable.

Fourth, Takiyuddin tried to exonerate AG Idrus Harun by saying that he was merely following his predecessor Thomas’ decision. But Thomas made no such decision in the first place, and even if he did, Idrus must take full responsibility for the final decision which must be made by him as the current AG.When the boss scribbled to “Ram” the phrases “prepared to consider” and “I await your advice", it means exactly that.

The sweetheart deal is entirely this government’s doing. The more they try to lay blame on Thomas, presenting their "evidence", the more is shown that they are the ones who designed the deal.To any person with a good command of English, the content of the letter from Thomas is self-explanatory and unambiguous. Thomas did not agree to anything, but he stated that he would consider or think about the representation in consultation with Sri Ram.

I steal RM1 and I am only required to return 30 sen. Does it sound like the taxpayer is going to be laughing all the way to the bank?
