Relax, it's only politics

This is nice,

Siti Hasmah visits Mohamed Azmin in hospital

excerpts;

The tweet, by Mohamed Azmin’s daughter Farah Amira, mentioned that Dr Siti Hasmah was with Datin Seri Shamsida Taharin, the wife of the PKR deputy president, at a hospital room but it did not say which hospital it was and what surgery the minister had undergone.

“A picture paints a thousand words, they say. Indeed, Abah@AzminAli in high spirits, from the care, love and affection showered on him by Tun Dr. Siti who came to visit after Abah's surgery.

I guess the old nasty things during the Anwar crackdown have been forgiven.

But were they forgotten?

Even though Dr Siti Hasmah was not involved, she surely remembers that it was very bad back then when they accused Azmin of giving Shamsidar to Anwar.

They even brought a mattress to court as evidence, complete with DNA samples and such.

Some even claimed that a child of Azmin and Shamsidar was actually Anwar's.

At that time, people blamed Dr Siti Hasmah's husband Dr Mahathir of all the sordidness.

Honestly, I never believe in the accusation.

As far as I know, Shamsidar is a good person and would never let herself be used like that.

I don't think Azmin is that vile too.

Looking at that picture of Dr Siti Hasmah with Azmin and Shamsidar, I believe the grand old lady also didn't believe in the allegations even back then when all those nasty things were happening.

Whatever it is, that's how things are in Malaysian politics.

All those sordid things they accused of each other were just part of their politics.

I think we shouldn't take those things too seriously.

Well, some of us got all worked up over them which I think was not very smart at all.

Just look at what they said Najib had done.

I think they will one day admit that it's only politics.

Ya, for now it's all seemed so real with all those multiple charges in court.

Later on, I think it will turn out to be just the same as that mattress they hauled up to court two decades ago.

It's just politics.

By the way, a foreigner friend asked me last night whether I believe this could happen,

Azmin appointed DPM after CNY

I told him, I don't think Dr Mahathir will want to rock the boat too early.

But rocks he will soon....and Azmin, I believe, will feature prominently.

No mattress this time though.
