The track record is dismal. It has not brought any tangible benefits to its members numbering some 50 over countries whose only connection with each other is the fact that we were once British colonies. The Commonwealth has not been able to act as a bloc in international affairs, has no influence over non-members. If the visits of the current Secretary-General of the Commonwealth are any indication, the choice would probably be between candidates from Singapore or Malaysia. The honors would likely go to someone from this city-state. It is time we dismantle this post-colonial club. The track record is dismal.

More than a score of former british colonies in Asia and Africa refused to join the commonwealth to this day because they realise long ago that it is a worthless organisation being propped up by the british to remind themselves of the days of empire. Even PPP's Kayveas himself would not even apply for that post and prefer the more prestigious position of being taiping mp You think najib is so stupid to give up the emperor’s post in malaysia and settle for a position of no importance in a dying third-rate organisation such as the commonwealth.
