Waiting for the implosion (updated)

UPDATES

Yup, it's starting already.

Anwar wants Mahathir to clarify Latheefa’s appointment


ORIGINAL POST

On the same day Latheefa Koya was appointed as MACC head, which was on Raya eve, there were these other stories of Dr Mahathir's strongmen;


Rein in supporters pressuring Dr M 

to quit, PM's pol-sec tells Anwar



Ministers should step up and stop relying 

on Mahathir, says PM's media advisor


The first one is on Zahid Md Arip and second on Datuk Kadir Jasin.

Zahid was quite harsh, actually.

excerpts;

Zahid, in his response, used an analogy of a mangy dog which barks at passersby in a neighbourhood when it senses its master’s frustrations.
“The dog is not barking for the first time, it has barked many times, this being the latest. Whoever passes by the house, it will bark, it has a sickness,” he said.
Asked what “sickness” the dog has, Zahid said it has “penyakit kalah di bahagian” (sickness from loss of the division).
“It’s not just one person, I hear there is another, Klang or Kapar. I see this as a plot to pressure Dr Mahathir, it will not stop here and it will continue after Hari Raya.”
Zahid said the dog cannot be calmed by anyone but its master.
“So I hope the master will speak up to silence them, if not people will say that the master is in cahoots with the dog,” he said, adding that he hoped this was not the case.
“We live in the neighbourhood together, we don’t really care if the dog barks but this seems to be going overboard to the point we are uncomfortable.”
So, Anwar's supporters are now like mangy dogs, eh Zahid.

I wonder what Anwar's people think Dr Mahathir's supporters are akin to nowadays.

Mangy swine?

My read into this is that the likes of Zahid in both Dr Mahathir and Anwar camps are all gearing up for the coming fight next year in the very likely event that there's no transition of power as promised.

Datuk Kadir, who represents the more intelligent side in Dr Mahathir's camp saw the danger of Pakatan's implosion from such a fight and tried to buy time as much as possible.

excerpts;

Commenting on the transfer of power to Parti Keadilan Rakyat’s Anwar Ibrahim, Mr Kadir recounted how he told those at the seminar that while PH’s election promises were not cast in stone, the transition from Dr Mahathir to Mr Anwar “was clearly stated and was the linchpin in the pre-election agreement”.

“I told them that they should be encouraged by Mr Anwar’s recent statements that he wasn’t in a hurry and that Dr Mahathir would continue to play a major role thereafter,” he said.
As for concerns over whether there would be any u-turn in policies after Mr Anwar takes over, Mr Kadir said this would be “unlikely”.

Yet Datuk Kadir, being among the harshest critics of Anwar during the Reformasi days of late 1990s surely knew that the fight is inevitable.

How can it be otherwise after these sort of things;


I don't think Datuk Kadir would be so naive as to believe that Anwar could truly forgive all that and will not take his revenge after he got the power to do so.

I believe he was just trying to keep the peace for now so that the fighting would not start too early before the deadline which was supposed to be in May next year.

Meanwhile, they are gathering all the bullets and power for the showdown.

Well, while all these were going on, Umno, Pas and their gang have been rather quiet, especially after their victory in Rantau.

From what I know, they are moving quietly on the ground, building strength at the grassroots level.

Better that way, I guess.

Just wait for the Pakatan implosion and meanwhile avoid making mistakes such as issuing unnecessary statements.

Yup, that's the right way to do it.

  1. It’s easy to see Zahid’s motive in coming out fighting for Mahathir’s corner. He’s trying to save his job. Once Mahathir out of picture, he’ll be jobless..

  2. I would like to congrate Latifah Koya on her appointment as the head of MACC. Tuah cuma datang sekali dalam hidup kita. Orang yg bernasib baik, Allah beri dua kali macam Tun M. Depend on your Nawaitu. I am laughing my head off, reading all the envious comments in all the opposition blogs, including yours, Annie. I wonder what would u do, should Tun M offers you the job of his political media, ganti Tok Kadir. Would u reject it knowing that tuah datang bergolek di depan u hanya sekali...Hehehehe

    2. Complains are on the manner of appointment, procedures and so on. Most important is in Latheefah Koya's appointment, the PM and PH government is again showing how seriuos and sincere they are in fighting corruption.

    3. Hahaha.....nothing to do with the manner of the appointmen. Yang mengamuk ni, beri macam-macam dalil. I bet, kalau Nik Nazmi dapat offer ni, he too would grab it. Bodohlah, kalau dia menolak sedangkan ini peluang datang bergolek. Don't tell me kalau u dapat offer ni, u tolak....????

    Nobody wants anwar. He is still plague by tht china doll thing among many others, despite all the pardon he can get.

    But i dont know, melayu mudah lupa.

    Wht umno pas are doing is aimilar to wht ph is doing earlier. Riding on the economic struggle of the people. As if umno and pas would do better.

    I stake my money on our dear tun anytime.

    I just hopes he gets to save us from anwar as well.

    1. Anon, please come out of nutshell. So far after 1 yr of PH you can see disaster everywhere. From economy plunging to debt jumping up and basically a country with no direction. PH infighting only making more investors runaway. Only thing clouding the PH hardcore supporter minds is their blind loyalty. Still many who voted PH are now regretting their choice. PH has lied and casually abandoned its promises...time to wake up!

  5. Annie,

    Honestly tell me if you want Anwar as our PM ?

    Any "normal" human beings would have problems with someone with moral and ethics issues being their leader. I certainly hope and pray that Anwar forever be only the PM in waiting.

    Let Tun M do his work and make this country great again. Like before Dol tido and al-penyamun took over.

  6. Come on lah, who wants china doll/rear admiral for pm? He is the greatest pretender in the world. Nothing he says is reliable, he doesn't speak truth. He will turn Malaysia into a muslim brotherhood country with brimstone and rain of fire. Forget the anwar and the ibrahim.

  8. The transition of power to Anwar,'if' not 'when' it happens will be pivotal in deciding PH's survival as govenrment after one term.The problem is Tun M's and Anwar's supporters have contrasting views about this.So it all depends on the other parties and leaders of PH .
    As for losers, sorry I mean, the opposition and its supporters, they are being quiet more because to strategise on Tok Mat's brave suggestion to exclude past leaders who have been charged. Only by doing this will they have any chance of reviving/restoring the public confidence in them.

  18. Tun behaves as if he will live forever.

    But the fact that he is at the age where he should be very concerned about his successor and Malaysia's future when he leaves the political scene.

    As one who is almost apolitical, I feel rule of law based on integrity and public trust must be the most basic fundamental we must start with.

    Harapan started a Parliamentary Appointment Committee of which even Tuan Ibrahim is a member. Tuan Ibrahim, Deputy President of PAS, even though a political adversary of Harapan, probably joined because it is in principle a good thing. It is meant to see that the rakyats'views are democratically represented when it comes to major civil service appointments.

    But Tun treated as if the committee did not exist.

    Countries the world over are seeing economic contraction. For Malaysia, our oil palm sector is badly hit because the EU is banning its import, our oil and gas sector is suffering from low prices, and our manufacturing sector continues to migrate to countries like Vietnam.

    Every Raya, Chinese New Year, Deepavali etc for a few years now but especially since May 2018, has seen less and less spending on celebrations. In short, our economy is getting worse with the passage of time.

    Actually, myself and many I know are sick of politicians using our trust to fight among themselves to get more power.

    What Pakatan should do is concentrate on fulfilling their election promise to us and improve the economy.

    In the future, when all the existing top people leave the political scene, I hope intelligent and capable young people from all the main parties - Umno and Pas included - who really put the interest of the rakyat as number one - will come together and work for a Malaysia that all her rakyat deserve.

  19. I had expected Malaysia's online scene to be pretty tame at least during the first two days of Shawwal but no, it was on fire with comments and opinions either way by politicians, civil society groups, political analysts and so forth over Lateefah Koya's unilateral appointment as MACC chief.

    Well, now let's see what happens next and will the issue be raised in parliament during the upcoming next sitting.

    Let's wait and see what happens next but for now, it looks like Tun Dr. Mahathir is calling the shots within the Pakatan government and his ministers are just saying "YES SAH, YES SAH, THREE BAGS FULL SAH".

    ReplyDelete
  20. Well maybe not all will say "Yes SAH" anymore.

    "PSC chairman to seek meeting with PM following unilateral appointment of MACC chief"

  21. Integrity and public trust are what politicians most basically owe the rakyat.

    In business, only a fool will continue to deal with some one who does not keep his part of the bargain.

    The rakyat should not overly rely on any personality. It is the SYSTEM of check and balance that must be made sacrosanct. Before GE14, even Tun agreed to that.

    I've a hunch that in a few months time, the 'Anugerah-Tuhan' will be invited to the White-House, just like he did in 1998, where he had the privilege of inspecting a Guard of honor.

  24. Sebagai rakyat biasa saya hairan kenapa ahli2 politik PH ini asyik tekankan kepada manifesto GE14 yg sasaran yg dicadangkan tidak dibuat dengan sokongan data yg kuat.

    Ahli keluarga saya dan ramai di kalangan kenalan tak tahupun manifesto ini wujud. Saya baca sedikit sahaja kerana menganggap itu bukan asas untuk menukar kerajaan yg tidak dibuktikan korupnya.

    So in order to know what is happening, we need to make a change to find out. One objective is enough for many of us: Make Tun M the next Prime Minister.

    It proves to all what Atok wants to send out ...I'm the Boss and the Bucks stops at my table. You guys just do the job which I give u....Way to go Atok ..I agree 100%

    Next shock wave for him to do
    Make Rafizi the MOF...He will kill many stones with it

    1 He will neutralise both factions of PKR
    2 He will now make DAP panas bontot and they will start to be less arrogant
    3 He will make Umno/ Pas criticism of lack of melayu minister in key positions
    4 He will make Azmin to start working and less sleeping as he is now being haunted by rafizi
    5 All PH factions will now have to start working because few now will trust each other
    6 Atok can then watch from aloft and make his next chess move
