malaysiakini ~ Remove IMMUNITY or BETTER to REMOVE GOVERNMENT?

In the aftermath of Bukit Antarabangsa, the Bar Council urges the government in this malaysiakini article Gov't told to remove immunity for local councils as no authority can now be held responsible for such incidents that are caused by corruption, negligence and dereliction of duty.
We read in other articles that the police are acting tough against peaceful cyclists and detaining them in their ride across Malaysia.
Then there is the major showdown in education brewing over the English for Maths and Science.
The government has been extremely slow in self-reforms and some believe that money politics in party polls has become worse.
So maybe the Bar Council message needs to be modified.
If we cannot remove the immunity for local councils, the next logical move would be to remove the government in the next elections.
