语言表达的精准
数个星期前，某家杂志的专题作者和老报人邓如钦访 笔者，在访问过程中，我接了几个电话，并在电话 给我的助手工作指示。邓如钦看在眼里，接着对笔者 说：“你的语言表达很简洁精准。有很多人讲话很啰 ，经常讲不到重点。”我听后感到有点儿惊讶，因 从没有人对笔者这么说过。
上个星期，新山区国会议员沙里尔在一个非政府组织 举办的讲座会上，批评一些国会议员在国会向部长 问题时爱耍花巧，他们不向部长提出和追问课题的重 点，而提出许多不着边际的东西，这往往让部长有机 借此回避有关课题的重点，答非所问。
我对于沙里尔的观点只能认同一半，因为太多时候， 多部长是刻意的回避一些敏感课题，而不是国会议 提的问题转移部长的视线所致。例如两个星期前，当 下议院辩论外交部的财政预算案时，外交部副部长便 意拒绝回答林吉祥和笔者在演讲中所提的缅甸课题 引起林吉祥的炮轰。
日前，我陪同一个与大马籍丈夫离异的外国夫人到移 厅会见一名总监级的官员。最初我以为这名外籍夫 被移民厅拒绝她的大马居留证，后来听她以马来语在 官员前把文件翻来覆去和啰里啰唆之后，该官员和我 知道她真正的问题是因为她的大马工作准证申请被 ，这才是她的问题所在。这是语言表达能力不精准的 最佳例子。
