PM VIRUS







PM VIRUS

Political landscape changed because of two “viruses” – Covid-19 and the “PM virus” !

100 years from now the events of 2020 be seen as a tragicomedy in which the “people’s victory” of May 9, 2018 had been snatched away by a “lust” to be PM.


Power lust and ‘PM virus’ 

that felled PH

PETALING JAYA: An activist has blamed the fall of the Pakatan Harapan-led government on the “lust” for the prime minister’s post.
Speaking at an event here today, Hishamuddin Rais said all hopes and dreams of reforms evaporated after the 22-month old administration fell on Feb 24.
He said that historians 100 years from now would look back on the events of 2020 as a tragicomedy in which the “people’s victory” of May 9, 2018 had been snatched away by a “lust” to be prime minister.
“We have to learn from our mistakes. Let us not be easily trapped by those wearing robes who are filled with religious rhetoric,” he said at the launch of a social organisation called Daya Masyarakat today.
Hishamuddin said the political landscape had changed because of two “viruses” – Covid-19 and the “PM virus” – which led to the political crisis.
The Pakatan Harapan government in power since the 2018 election fell on the resignation of Dr Mahathir Mohamad, the coalition chairman and prime minister.
Under an agreement struck prior to the general election, Mahathir was to hand over power to Anwar Ibrahim at an unspecified date. The question of the handover date would feature frequently during Pakatan Harapan’s short stint in power.
PKR vice-president Tian Chua, who is Daya chairman, said Malaysians should commit to rebuilding hopes so that the sacrifices of the past decades were not wasted.

    I read in TMI just now and begin to wonder what Mahathir's statement would entail.

    "Only a few more MPs needed to form govt, says Dr Mahathir"

    Would Muhyiddin make a U-Turn, resigns and a similar incident would ensue when TDM resigned?

    Sounds illogical and farfetched BUT politic is dynamic. No permanent friends and no permanent enemies.
