The bonus in Mahathir’s plan is a slot for son Mukhriz

Regardless how the Pakatan presidential council decides, Mahathir’s detractors and doubters have got it right on one point and are now proclaiming to everyone what ultimately is the 94-year-old’s objective – and that is about having the window to be able to Mukhriz somewhere into the equation to be deputy prime minister 2 in a country where there is no provision even for a deputy PM

Politics is for everyone’s benefit, not a select few, says Anwar

Politics should not be used as a basis to wield a grudge against anyone. It is to safeguard life and society. We must make Malaysia a beautiful country for everyone.

Dr M and Anwar: When love and hate collide

Anwar and Dr Mahathir separately claimed to have the majority vote of members of parliament, both contradicting each other to say they are the prime ministerial candidate.

PH at a crossroads

Mahathir still longs to be PM, but whatever next course of action he takes will not have Anwar as a factor. The good news is, he is no longer bound by Anwar; and the bad news is, he may lose the support of PKR’s 38 MPs. Mahathir is going to take to bring down Muhyiddin include a no-confidence motion, or a statutory declaration to be handed to the King that will not include PKR’s 38 names.

Source of all evils

Mahathir should change the political mind frame of the Malays and not put the blame on progressive thinking and pluralism. Because of deep-rooted institutional decay, our politicians have lost themselves. There is no way this country will ever go back to the right track again over the next one decade.

Tun M: 6 months enough for me

Will table a motion of no confidence against Muhyiddin in the Parliament in July. If no chance to vote on the no-confidence motion, will veto the PN government’s fiscal budget.
I never met Hishammuddin and Azmin in Langkawi. I can meet with anyone, except Najib and Muhyiddin.

Death of Pakatan Harapan, thanks DAP

What the DAP and Amanah are doing is furthering the narrative that Anwar does not have the numbers when the reality is that they are being held hostage by a cabal of political pirates and playing into the narratives of the PN regime.

Anwar or Dr Mahathir: Can it be a younger leader?

Isn’t it time that these two retire to an advisory role and let the next generation of political leaders take the lead?

Pakatan’s stalemate… how to move forward

The main objective should always be about moving forward the reform agenda and putting forth the needs of the many over the few. The main risk is that we will forever regress and the chance such as that in GE14 will never come up again.

A letter to Dr Mahathir

Our questions are:
What guarantee will be available that a handover of power will be made to Anwar after the said six months given your ambiguous nature over that issue in the recent past? Will it be at the cost of dissolving the government once again?

The world is changing, we need a leader who is with the people at present times. We have to make brave and confront the challenging times

Is it the end of the road for Mahathir?

Malaysia’s grand old man is used to having his way. Everyone has seen how he can damage those who do not do what he wants. He was never aggressive, he did not raise his voice even though we know he would not back down. We are not sure what he will do but this is the chance to make a fresh start. It is time for Mahathir to support Anwar.

Mahathir-Anwar Combo – The Last Chance To Send Crooks To Jail & Make Full Use Of The Remaining 2 Years

It’s the lack of legitimacy, stupid!

If Anwar Ibrahim and Pakatan Harapan endorses Mahathir as the 9th prime minister, they will lose their own legitimacy. There are those who love Mahathir but we all love Malaysia more

You better believe it — Mahathir wants to be PM a third time

Mahathir’s sweetener was that he merely wants to redeem himself, to prove to everyone that he is a man of his words. One insider noticed that Anwar looked sheepish and uneasy on hearing Mahathir’s offer, which if it eventuates, would mean a world record unlikely to ever being broken.
