On his first day as the 9th Prime Minister, Ismail Sabri has already screwed up spectacularly. As part of a PR exercise to project himself as a caring leader, his first official visit was to Kedah on Monday (August 23). The itinerary for the visit was to several flood-hit areas and meet with families affected […]
... written on Aug 24 2021Ismail Sabri, the country’s third prime minister in 3 years, has officially taken over from Muhyiddin Yassin, whose government collapsed after Sabri’s political party pulled its support. While Muhyiddin is now Malaysia’s shortest serving prime minister, his record of 17 months in power could be broken anytime if there are new plots to overthrow the […]
... written on Aug 23 2021King Sultan Abdullah had made two biggest blunders. First, he – either ignorantly or deliberately – chose Muhyiddin Yassin as the 8th Prime Minister last year without verifying the authenticity of the support he actually possessed. That was why Muhyiddin’s Perikatan Nasional government has been called a backdoor government. The entire process lacked legitimacy and […]
... written on Aug 18 2021Muhyiddin Yassin is set to resign on Monday during an audience with King Sultan Abdullah. After his too-little-too-late offers to the Opposition were flatly rejected without even a roundtable talk, it was game over for the 74-year-old prime minister, whose leadership has been plagued with the legitimacy issue ever since he was sworn in as […]
... written on Aug 15 2021The emergence of a letter from House Speaker “Art Harun” Azhar Azizan Harun dated August 3 to the King Sultan Abdullah, informing the Palace that Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin had only support from 106 MPs, was the last straw that broke the camel’s back. August 3 was the same Tuesday UMNO president Zahid Hamidi announced […]
... written on Aug 13 2021First, 15 MPs from his own biggest ally – UMNO – withdrew support and abandoned him. Then, 105 Opposition MPs followed suit. Altogether, 120 letters were sent to the Palace, informing King Sultan Abdullah that 120 MPs have rejected the leadership of Prime Minister Mahiaddin alias Muhyiddin. The scoreboard says 120 votes against Muhyiddin’s 100 […]
... written on Aug 11 2021Under the clueless leadership of Mahiaddin alias Muhyiddin, Malaysia has broken more Coronavirus records today – 20,596 daily infections, a total 10,019 deaths, 217,061 active patients and 1,078 patients in ICUs (including 549 who required ventilators). The total cumulative Covid-19 cases have jumped to 1,203,706 since the pandemic started last year. The statistics may […]
... written on Aug 05 2021Dictator wannabe Muhyiddin is fighting a losing battle against Agong King Sultan Abdullah, and he knew it. With his popularity of less than 20%, he is easily the most hated prime minister in the history of Malaysia. Even dictators Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi, despite their corruption and brutality, were more popular – until they […]
... written on Aug 02 2021When Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, Attorney General Idrus Harun, House Speaker Azhar Harun (brother of A.G.), and leaders of allies – UMNO and PAS – met and hatched a plan to avoid a parliamentary vote on Monday (July 26), the first day the Parliament reconvened this year since the Proclamation of Emergency on January 12, […]
... written on Jul 29 2021Hundreds of Muslims, mostly migrant workers and refugees, had formed a huge crowd outside a “surau” in Taman Pelangi, Juru, Bukit Mertajam, on Tuesday morning (July 20). While there’s nothing wrong with holding Aidiladha prayers, there were two issues with the event. First, they were doing it on a road in the housing area. Second, […]
