Lim Kit Siang's perennial double standards

From Malaysiakini (extracts and also some paragraphs re-arranged by kt, wakakaka):

Last December, Kit Siang mocked MCA president Wee Ka Siong for holding its AGM behind closed doors.

At the time, he accused Wee of being afraid of the media picking up on purported grassroots anger at MCA's role in defending former premier Najib Abdul Razak over the 1MDB scandal.

[But now] ... DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang said the closed-door session would encourage party delegates to give their views.

"We want all to give their views," he said. "We don’t want selective reports; we want to avoid that."

[wakakaka, what a blardy go-starn-ing Apek]

DAP has moved to hold the debate session of its National Conference behind closed doors, a departure from its decade-long practice of opening up all of its sessions to the media.

Its secretary-general Lim Guan Eng later told reporters that the closed-door session with 969 delegates, which is being held at the Ideal Convention Centre in Shah Alam, is to allow for discussions on policies.

"Now that we are in government, we want to discuss issues which are important for policies, which need to be confidential," said Guan Eng, who is also the finance minister. [...]

Quizzed on whether concerns about any sensitive issues prompted the close-door measure, Guan Eng said some "internal governance affairs" will be discussed.

"We want to have a frank discussion," he added.

DAP national organising secretary Anthony Loke, meanwhile, said that with reporters being present, delegates tend not to voice their thoughts freely.

"We want to give them a free environment to voice their opinion.

"Usually when there is the presence of media, they tend to reserve their comments. 

"It’s not that we control them," he said, adding that the problem was observed after opening the annual congress to the media for a decade.

"We understand the psyche of our members. They are worried they might hurt the party if they voice out something in the presence of the media.

"We are in government now and that’s why we want to give them a free environment to say it out loud."

Whether DAP wants to hold their intra-party discussion-debate openly or in private, that is, behind closed doors, is DAP's prerogative but what needs to be highlighted has been Lim Kit Siang's brazen double-standards.

Goading the MCA last December for holding its party AGM behind closed doors and then giving excuses as to why the DAP is now doing it is disgusting, duplicitous and disgraceful. Don't lah set standards for others that you can't keep to yourself.

Thus the DAP can go ahead with its closed door session but it or its BS leader Lim KS should not mock other parties for not doing something what itself ALSO does NOT want to do. But alas, that's the double standard of Lim KS.

Now, when the DAP closes its doors to non-party members we can expect it to do two things or even both, namely:

(a) talk about the eff-ups of Pribumi, the nyanyuk-ness of Mahathir, the royal forays into the political arena, the frightening powers of ever treacherous Azmin Ali, the growing dangers to Anwar Ibrahim's aspirations, etc, and

(b) talk about the stupidity of Lim GE vis-a-vis the pandai-chong-ness of the Old Man and Daim, the dilution of the FM's powers, ripped off to now give away to Azmin Ali, the growing irrelevancy of Lim KS's power within Pakatan, the greed of minor party Pribumi and the disproportionate gluttonous grab by Mahathir's Party of the MBs' positions, etc. 

hmmm, is it time yet to eff the DAP? 

I don't want to hear that 'B' name here 

I am totally eff between M and HM
I wonder whether Mazlan will kowtim me? 

Good luck to its secret discussions - we hope the authorities don't wiretap your proceedings, wakakaka.
