Angkasawan a politician?

Just read the news today saying that our angkasawan going to be a politician. What do you think?
I think any professional job such as teacher, laywer, doctors and ANGKASAWAN should not involve in politics.

chesney :- otherwise they wont sent him to space at first.

It's pathetic. I wouldn't say that just because he is an "angkasawan" he cannot be politician but the way i see it is that this guy is not interested to be a politicians but it is the politicians who want to get him involve. If feels indebted to them as he is very much aware that these are the people who through the government had sponsored his trip up there. Sadly this guy is being used as a "tool" by these people for their own motives.

news is spreading that he is gay ! how can we have a gay politician...he may tackle uncle Samy...ahhahaha

wish he never came back from that space trip....
oink oink!

i dont care. not in sabah

Being an 'angkasawan' alone is not enough to become a politician. Was it really him wanted to become a politician or the gov want him to be one?

Today news also, he said he's gonna get married next year in 2008 as he's 35 already..i guess he wants to stop the gay stories...

Anyway,i think most politicians do start out as teachers/doctors/lawyers etc...after they have got followers then it'll be easier for them to join politics...

what's wrong if he decided to become a politician? if u don't like him ... just don't vote for him ...

i think more professionals should involved with politic ... let him decide whatever he like .. politician or doctor or even a model ... straight or gay ... who cares ... we need the quality not his privacy ...

He has every right

But I think we need more professionals and smart people involve in politics so that the can run they country professionally, not like what we have now

GH, hahahaha lol
i told ya!...
Sarah, where u get that rumour? i heard it long time ago... his partner called him Baby... lol

Oh well, GH has a point, we only need his quality, i dont really mind his orientation...he's still our first angkasawan.. ('',)

I will 'UNDI' him........

Anyone can be a politician as long as they put the people's interest first and foremost. Their undertakings are not so important.

btw, on this basis, no much politicians here are qualified.

Its his life. Doesnt matter what background he came from, he is entitle to choose the path he wishes to take.

uh-oh..
another one wants to get a peice of the malaysian pie........

if he could kick out all the corruption ministers, i would vote for him

Doesn't matter if he is into politician as long he is clean and honest and not let those corrupted politicians to influence him...

Who cares?
