For the first time I agree with Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia, former Speaker of Parliament.
Pandikar said:“Persidangan Dewan Rakyat tidak boleh dibuat sesuka hati oleh sesiapa pun.”
He said from the statement of the interim Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, “persidangan khas Parlimen” yang akan diadakan pada 2hb Mac, 2020 adalah untuk menentukan siapa individu yang layak menjadi Perdana Menteri mengikut bilangan undi dari ahli-ahli Dewan Rakyat.
Pandikar said:
“Pada saya, kalau lah tujuan persidangan khas yang akan diadakan pada 2hb Mac itu adalah untuk menentukan kedudukan Perdana Menteri, ianya melanggar Peraturn Mesyuarat (PM) 11 (2) dan PM 11 (3) atas dua sebab:
“1. Tun Mahathir adalah bukan Ketua Majlis atau Perdana Menteri dalam konteks pengertian/tafsiran PM 11. Tun Mahathir telah meletakkan jawatannya sebagai Perdana Menteri dan lantikannya sebagai Perdana Menteri Interim adalah tidak dirangkumi oleh tafsiran sebagai Ketua Majlis.
“2. Memilih seorang Perdana Menteri adalah bukan FAEDAH orang ramai dalam konteks tafsiran PM 11 (3). Urusan yang dibincang dalam mesyuarat Dewan Rakyat dibawah PM 11 (3) adalah bukan untuk memilih kedudukan jawatan seorang Perdana Menteri.”
This is in line with the decision taken by the Pakatan Harapan Presidential Council last night.

Frankly, even if the technicality is highly important, its delaying inevitable of PH doing what it has to do. Yes, it’s unfair PH has to confront the challenges before it but it was always going to be unfair as there was never going to be enough time for PH to be prepared to confront the challenges.
PH is a deep end of a crap pool. It must dig itself out no matter what. If PH cannot, then we deserve to sink, everyone for itself. No, Malaysia is not absolutely worth saving

So it’s OK for Malays to steal and plunder so long as they can perpetuate racist slander and false victimhood.
Malaysia is done. Period.
#3 by Bigjoe on Saturday, 29 February 2020 - 2:20 am
While I had expected it, fact Bersatu is willing to fully join with still UMNO that is still basically the same is still shocking how much they believe the racist lies that has been perpetuated for decades.
Anwar is Malay, PKR is largely Malay, Amanah is ALL Malay. Is the difference between Anwar rule and Mahathir rule worth the corruption and abuse we have seen and will repeat that can destroy the nation? Where is the patriotism and common sensibility of Malays in Malay parties that clearly still exists with the Malays themselves as they clearly chose Anwar to be next PM?
Its shocking the racism, the irresponsibity, the institutional and cultural wreck of Malay politics.

One thing someone must clear up.. How can Ali Bjiu, Willie Mongjin and Baru Bian, Sarawakian who fought BN for the longest time, join what is obviously Malay hegemonist in Bersatu and by default with UMNO and old BN Sarawak???
Seriously, can we even take politicians in this country seriously when their self interest are so unprincipled?
#5 by winstony on Saturday, 29 February 2020 - 5:45 pm
Well, well, well.
Since the electorate has given PH the mandate in GE14 to form the government it must be followed through.
Including the handover promise to Anwar in May this year.
This is the PROPER WAY the government must be run!
Instead of having frogs defying and overturning the will of the electorate.
QED or Quite Easily Done.

It looks like Mahathir and Anwar got outplayed by GPS.. The problem is how do GPS explain going to bed with Hadi’s PAS who think they are infidels?
#7 by Bigjoe on Saturday, 29 February 2020 - 8:41 pm
More nonsense is this about GPS is not in Perikatan but support Muhiyiddin as PM? Is GPS staying out of the Federal Govt? That is even more stupid to give more power to PAS. If they are in the Govt than they are in the coalition with PAS, Perikatan or not..
Seriously, GPS like Azmin & Co need to quit politics and go home and suckle their mother’s breast and leave politics to adults.
#8 by Bigjoe on Sunday, 1 March 2020 - 2:55 am
GPS said they were stupid to join up with DAP but they are not even more stupid to join up with PAS? Choosing to be caught with corruption if DAP gets in power in Sarawak vs losing Sarawak way of life, I admit is hobson’s choice for GPS. But to believe there was no way to do a deal with DAP vs destroying their way of life and and the nation, is really why GPS show their true mediocrity and need to go..
#9 by Bigjoe on Sunday, 1 March 2020 - 7:17 pm
Frankly DAP better keep saying Syariah Laws in Sarawak and Sabah again and again because that is what it means – and its one set of law for GPS and another for the rest of us..
#10 by Bigjoe on Sunday, 1 March 2020 - 8:22 pm
Sarawak really think GPS can keep them safe from biggest hypocrite and bigot that is Hadi’s PAS??
#11 by Bigjoe on Monday, 2 March 2020 - 4:01 am
Hadi Awang was at a meeting to push Mahathir to accept Najib, Zahid Hamidi, etc charged with corruption. Sarawakian think their state will not have Syariah Law now Hadi is in govt? Hadi Vs. GPS, GPS is dead duck and will cave. Hadi’s PAS will never give up power once they are in. Never.. under Any circumstances.
#12 by winstony on Monday, 2 March 2020 - 10:30 am
Perhaps the newly minted PM should be given a chance to run the country given the fact that the PM he replaces has proven to be very impulsive!!!
#13 by Bigjoe on Tuesday, 3 March 2020 - 2:08 am
Muhiyiddin is PM and says he is not the traitor which is not exactly true and the main traitor is Azmin and Najib and he did the deal with them to topple the elected govt.
But it already shows how Muhiyiddin think. Some deep real truth can be given up for practical politics. In other words, immediate big real truth, Muhiyiddin will defend but real long term principles, liberals ones or old habits, you can count him out. Muhiyiddin is not going to let Najib go. How UMNO react after they realized that will determine the final outcome. Muhiyiddin is also going to let further Islamisation by Hadi’s PAS happen, if it does not topple his govt. Push Hadi to make Syariah Laws and likely Muhiyiddin will delay until next GE which then will happen.
Biggest losers are Sarawakian followed by rest of us because the biggest idiot is GPS who thought they were so smart to reject a deal with DAP.
#14 by Bigjoe on Tuesday, 3 March 2020 - 2:14 am
But frankly DAP is not much smarter not to have shored up Sarawak much faster as a fundamental bedrock for PH stability.. If DAP can take Sarawak for certain, the whole thing would not have happened. It is still the key to any return to PH and avoiding racial religo based national mediocrity
#15 by Bigjoe on Tuesday, 3 March 2020 - 2:45 am
What DAP really losing sight is Hadi Awang, arrogance of religo politics In Malaysia, has approved corruption – if he can excuse it. He is the biggest hypocrite and bigot and his party is not different. Divine hypocrisy, bigotry and corruption. God help us all..
#16 by good coolie on Tuesday, 10 March 2020 - 2:07 pm
Hadi’s co-operation with the traitors and UMNO is to deal with Pakatan Harapan which was moving away from the proposed Islamic State. That, they have achieved. Another reason is to achieve the seemingly impossible, that is, putting PAS’s foot into the door of gomen. The next step is to walk in, if possible and play to the sentiments of honest and religious Malays from a position of strength.
