OUR country has been in disarray since February. Ordinary people like us, who don’t understand the role of “learned” people like our politicians in planning the COVID-19 pandemic’s covert “coup d’etat“, see it as an odd event to accept.
We therefore accepted their justifications for taking over the Government without having to go through the ballot papers, as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong had done. Unlike Tunisia and Thailand, we did not take to the streets to protest.
We had a lot of patience. Despite the many lockdowns and the unnecessary Sabah election held because of a few dishonest persons, the number of COVID-19 cases has increased, we continue to pay attention to the Government’s pleas.
Even while several ministers and prominent people broke the lockdown restrictions, they were only mildly reprimanded, whereas ordinary people, such as the burger seller in Kelantan, were severely punished. We retain the appropriate level of formality.
We, Malaysians, adore our nation and always respect our leaders, even if we know that some of them are unfit to serve this nation. Such leaders are always forgiven and forgotten.
The growth in unemployment, combined with the high rate of suicide in Malaysia, has recently raised concerns about the present administration’s legitimacy. The current Government’s unwillingness to convene Parliament as much as possible casts doubt on its lawfulness as well.
The persistent disagreement between the current administration and the Palace raises further doubts about whether their working compatibility would be sufficient for the country’s decent governance.
Contract doctors’ protests, as well as hundreds of young people’s demonstrations calling for the Prime Minister and his Cabinet to quit, show that people are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the current administration.
Who will be our country’s future Prime Minister?
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is the right person to lead our country through this crisis. He is a charismatic leader who is well-liked by people from all walks of life in our country. He is aware of the pain and expectations of the people.
He was a former deputy prime minister and finance minister who successfully managed our country’s finances throughout his time in office. He is always attentive and sympathetic to those in need, particularly the impoverished.
He has also been imprisoned twice and has experienced both sides of life – good and bad. He is well-liked around the world and can entice investors, particularly from abroad, to help revive our economy.
If the incumbent prime minister resigns, the Agong has the prerogative to choose the country’s next prime minister. Despite the fact that we have other candidates, Anwar Ibrahim will be the best fit for the current circumstances.
Various attempts have been undertaken over the last twelve years to prevent Anwar Ibrahim from becoming Prime Minister of this country. Others can hold the country’s highest office, but not him. That was the part that perplexed us the most.
As a result, we implore our Agong to use his great wisdom to appoint a qualified and capable prime minister to lead this country to new heights. – Aug 15, 2021

KJ is young but a lots of scandal haunting him. He also doesn't get much support from his fellow UNO members.

If Noor Hisham's number is below 20k today, MyHiadi still got chance.
If you know Noor's tactic, he is good at manipulating numbers.

The PM is from UMNoAlready 80 percent sure.Only the annoucement.PN had 115-125 MP.Majority.
Not Anwar.Anwar promise 2 deputy post before one for the Malay and Chinese.Anwar had forget Chinese help.Chinese had the larger MP then Warisan.
How come Warisan get the deputy post.Should have 2 because Chinese view must be listen and appease the Chinese.The news already say one deputy post.
2021-08-17 18:22
"Only the annoucement.PN had 115-125 MP.Majority."

But is not.PN not break yet.Having majority 115-125 MP.Ex.not all listen to Zahid in Umno is also same not all PH MP listen to Anwar.Anwar assume 100 percent PH MP will listen to him.
2021-08-17 19:23
Sabri Ismail as PM and Deputy PM from Bersatu. Others supporters like PAS, MIC, MCA, etc etc would follow suit. From news report.
It would be like a PM and cabinet re-shuffle.
Nothing would change except for the faces and special report to Agong every week.
** Same old story but... This time UMNO would lead the show.
2021-08-18 07:59
Sick with oldie politicians, when can our country like France and NZ whereby new and more longer vision young politicians emerge to replace those old politicians??

Sexual assault suit: Writ and statement of claim submitted to Anwar's legal firm today
TheEdge Wed, Aug 18, 2021 10:25pm - 2 hours ago
KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 18): A suit filed by a former research assistant to Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim against the PKR president has been delivered to the legal firm representing him by hand.
The suit was submitted by Muhammed Yusoff Rawther as the plaintiff on July 14 on claims of sexual assault on him at Anwar’s residence three years ago.
Counsel Mahajoth Singh, who is representing Muhammed Yusoff, said the writ and the statement of claim had been submitted today to the lawyer representing Anwar from the legal firm, Ranjit Singh & Yeoh, at its office in Solaris Dutamas here.
"The court also set Sept 9 for further case management," he said when contacted by reporters after case management via e-review before High Court deputy registrar Idamasliza Maarof, today.
In his statement of claim, Muhammed Yusoff, 28, alleged the sexual assault took place on Oct 2 2018 at the residence of Anwar, 73, in Segambut when he was asked by Anwar’s private secretary Shukri Saad to deliver the text of a speech in conjunction with the 150th anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi organised by the Indian High Commission to the defendant.
The plaintiff alleged Anwar sexually assaulted and molested him while he rejected the defendant’s moves and asked him to stop committing the act.
He claimed the defendant then appeared upset and disappointed and before leaving the defendant told the plaintiff, "I want to do this again" in which the plaintiff replied that he would never be alone in a room with the defendant.
After the incident, Muhammed Yusoff claimed there was no communication between them for about a month, even though the plaintiff was still working with the defendant in the office before being shifted to Yayasan Aman.
The plaintiff, who resigned from Yayasan Aman on June 24 2019, said a police report was made against Anwar on Dec 7 2019 and the plaintiff took a polygraph test at the police headquarters in Bukit Aman on Dec 17 the same year and claimed the defendant declined to take the test.
According to Muhammed Yusoff, the Attorney-General’s Chambers had issued a media statement that there was insufficient evidence to charge Anwar.
The plaintiff alleged that as a result of the incident, he was accused of plotting to bring down and destroy the political career of the defendant apart from causing mental health issues to the plaintiff from criticism from political leaders supporting Anwar as well as members of the public.
As such, the plaintff is claiming compensation for special, general, aggravated and exemplary damages and interest as well as other reliefs deemed fit by the court.

II) Buy vaccine Sinovac not for all Chinese or Malaysia but for Penang only
III)Say appologize if the Sinovac vaccine prove to be fake but till now not even Public Applogise.
IV) Say recognise Chinese school exam but not even one yet.
V)Covid 19 not even coming out a lot to show example and direction but....

If our leaders are smart, they don't call for parliament sitting everyday.
During a pandemic, leaders cannot solve a problem with collaboration?
I thought leaders are supposed to put rakyat in the first place. Can parliament solve any problem so far?
What we can hear so far are mostly the argument about the number of congressman's support. And accusing each other for not doing a good job.
We hear mostly about the power struggle and very minimal about ending an epidemic (pandemic requires worldwide collaboration).
Arguing about the support can help end our epidemic? Buying katak can help Sabah solve epidemiological problem over there?
