Datuk Mohamed Aziz (BN – Sri Gading) surely have too much free time, as is the other parlimentarian!
Firstly, he's an idiot who have nothing else better to be said in parliament!
Secondly, he has too much free things to do, rather than figuring other better ideas to move the country into a better nation.
But the most revealing fact is, BN-component parties are represented by none-too-bright member of parliament!
Come on, we have better things to discuss in parliament!
Last but indeed definitely not the least, if creativity and self-expression in singing the national anthem is also not recommended, how could the rest of the citizen be tempted to include innovations and creativity in their works to help develop Malaysia further. Malaysian seems to be contained to conform to the norm in all things that they do, and diversions to the norm is not welcomed!
Wonder how would progress be made by anyone in this world if everyone were to remain stout to the idea that the world is indeed 'flat'!

Singer’s version of Negaraku slammed
SINGER Hattan, who apparently jazzed up the Negaraku when he sang at the Malaysia Cup final last Saturday, was slammed by an MP who said his version of the national anthem was insulting.
To prove his point, Datuk Mohamed Aziz (BN – Sri Gading) sang aloud the last line of what he claimed to be Hattan's version of the Negaraku and the official version for comparison.
He noted that Hattan’s version, which among other variations ended with ascending notes, was insulting, and had trivialised the national symbol.
The situation was further aggravated by the fact that it was sung in the presence of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, he said.
Culture, Arts and Heritage Minister Datuk Seri Rais Yatim said action would be taken against Hattan if his version of Negaraku was found to be insulting.
Rais said he would obtain the television footage of the event and determine whether the version sung, which was not according to the official version, was inappropriate.
“If it is found to be insulting, action under the National Anthem Act will be taken,” he said in reply to a supplementary question by Mohamed.
At press time, Hattan could not be reached for comment.
Deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Abdul Latiff Ahmad said four cosmetics and beauty salons were brought to court for offering Vitamin C injections.
The salons were among 161 cosmetics and beauty salons raided by the ministry's enforcement division this year, he said.
“It's puzzling why women are still attracted to such injections. It's better for them to eat food containing Vitamin C, as there is no clinical evidence that the injection can improve skin condition,'' he told Dr Rozaidah Talib (BN – Ampang).
Dr Abdul Latiff said that with the approval of the Medical Equipment Bill and Cosmetics Bill, the ministry could control the abuse of cosmetic products and the use of beauty equipment by specialists.
