Does photo op with Najib a dereliction of duty that warrant immediate dismissal? (click here)
If it is so, there is a major conspiracy hatching against the Prime Minister.
This is a group picture taken with the Prime Minister, Dato Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak and his wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor at the end of a buka puasa event at their residence on August 22nd, 2011.
Yours truly was there with Bigdog but due to my poor of health then, we left immediately after breaking fast and maghrib solat.
It came to our attention that this picture brought out the fury of a Press Secretary to a Minister. One chap in this picture was dismissed instantaneously from his job at a Minister's office by one Press Secretary. His salary paid by a foundation was immediately stopped.
According to labour law, one can only be dismissed immediately for serious contravention to one's term and condition of employment that is almost criminal in nature like corruption, embezzlement, etc.
Otherwise, they have to undergo a process of procedures involving show cause letter, enquiries, committee, etc. before any disciplinary action can be taken. The Minister's officer could have seriously contravened labour law and liable for a lawsuit.
One wonders if it is a serious dereliction of duties that warrant immediate dismissal to attend a buka puasa and have a photo op with the PM and his wife? The Minister's office we are talking about is a Barisan Nasional Minister.
