No accountability or responsibility when ‘untouchables’ make unintentional mistakes in Malaysia

International disgrace for Malaysia at 47th Asean Summit

 KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 30, 2025: Getting the names of foreign leaders wrong at the recently concluded 47th Asean Summit here is simply an international disgrace and shame (view the above video).

Why has no one been held accountable and responsible for the incompetent and disgraceful display of international ignorance?

Why are the director-general and minister not held responsible for shaming Malaysia?

It certainly confirm “shame/shameful” is not in Malusia (shameless Malaysia)’s dictionary.

Malaysians should not be surprised that no action is taken against anyone for memalukan (shaming)  rakyat dan negara (people and country) internationally.

Just an apology is suffice and all is forgiven when government servants and departments make mistakes … just like the Education Ministry’s apology for disgracing the Jalur Gemilang (national flag).

But when others and individuals make such unintentional mistakes, the law takes a different stance.

One law for the untouchables and one law for the man in the street.

That’s Malaysia’s skewered law and law enforcement for you.

And, to say the least, Malaysia should make an international public apology instead.
