Why you should never play with a broom
I am amazed that this man, who is of Javanese descent, could actually defend his actions in handing out brooms to his civil servants during his time in power. It is a well-known Javanese superstition that you should never, ever, play with a broom (especially handing them out as “gifts”) or it will bring you bad luck. I am sure that he very well knows about this but is pretending to be stupid.
I am not saying that I actually believe in this Javanese superstition but point to note: he lost his Menteri Besar post, didn’t he?

And he goes down in the SERP with the broom! LOL, I have a broom pic of him on my blog when people search.
