Fed up with politicking
PETALING JAYA: More than half of the Star Online readers who took part in a survey said they were fed up with the amount of politicking going on at the moment.
From over 2,000 respondents, 59.8% (1,260) said they were fed up because there was too much politicking and too little governance.
The question they were asked was: “Is there too much politicking in the country? Have our political leaders lost the bigger picture of serving the people, especially in these difficult times?”
Of those who responded, 33.1% (698) said they did not agree that there was too much politicking because they felt that the whole episode was exciting and it was good to allow the politicians to fight it out in pursuit of truth and justice.
The remaining 7.1% (149) said they did not care because whatever political leaders said or did, things would remain the same.
