Netizens dug up an old Twitter post
Netizens were quick to dredge up one of Steven Sim’s old Twitter posts from 2015.
Bukit Mertajam MP Steven Sim once wrote that his mission was to bring down a government that has people like Ahmad Maslan in it.
I have only ONE job: to bring down a Govt which consists of people like Ahmad Maslan.

The old tweet that didn’t age well tickled many netizens who now wondered how Steven will work with Ahmad Maslan in the finance ministry under Anwar Ibrahim.
Some netizens said both men will have to stop fighting each other, put aside their differences, and learn how to treat each other with respect for the sake of the nation.
Most importantly, both deputy ministers should keep politics away from the finance ministry.
Another netizen said everyone should be careful with their words because karma will hit back one day.
I got bad news for you. You work with him right now.

7 years later, you have to stop fighting and start to learn how to treat each other well for the sake of the nation.

Just bury your differences and work for the country. Keep politics outside of the ministry. I’m sure almost everyone has a strength that can be leveraged to be useful. Else, it’ll be a good time to be a mentor.
