"When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount and get a different horse."
That is what logic says!
However, in government and corporate circles more advanced strategies are often employed, such as:
1. Buy a stronger whip.
2. Change riders.
3. Appoint a committee to study the horse.
4. Arrange to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.(I know for sure, the Boleh Land Ministers and their spouces use this strategy very often)
5. Lower the standards so that the dead horse can be included.
6. Reclassify the dead horse as 'legacy of our past failures'.
7. Hire outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
8. Harness several dead horses together to increase speed.
9. Provide additional funding and/or training to increase dead horse's performance.
10. Do a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse's performance
11. Declare that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overheads and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses.
12. Rewrite the expected performance requirements for all horses.
And of course ....
13. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position, or send them on diplomatic missions~!

They don't shoot horses, do they?
