Kita boleh menilai rasional di sebalik tindakan TG Nik A Aziz. Dan kita percaya bahawa dari segi amalan tidaklah ia dilakukan secara membabi buta.
Tapi kalau cara BN, mesti rasuah dulu baru dapat kerja.
============================================================================================================================== MB maintains stand
PASIR PUTEH: Kelantan Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat is standing by his statement that the state favoured less attractive women in its recruitment of staff.
He said that although the state would not lower its requirement for a position just to accommodate less attractive women, attractive women would be at a "handicap" if vying for a position with similarly qualified but less attractive women.
"If two women with the same qualifications, same skills and ability apply for a position, we will choose the less attractive one," he said at a political gathering at Kampung Wakaf, near here on Monday night.
Nik Aziz said less attractive women should be assisted because they were less likely to find a husband.
He said he felt vindicated when a group of elderly spinsters paid him a visit at his official residence at JKR10 in Kota Baru recently.
"They endorsed my belief and told me that one of the reasons they remained unmarried was because they were not attractive to men," he said.
In immediate response, Kota Baru MP Ilani Isahak said Nik Aziz was being a "simpleton" because attractive women would not necessarily marry wealthy men or get married at all.
