Perak State Assembly makes world history — proposer and seconder of confidence motion voted against their own motion

(Tatal ke bawah untuk kenyataan versi BM)

The Perak State Assembly has made world history — with the proposer and seconder of the confidence motion on the Perak Mentri Besar, Ahmad Faizal Azumu, both voting against their own motion.

The confidence vote was moved  by  the UMNO Assemblyman for Pengkalan Bharu Abdul Manaf Hashim and seconded by the UMNO Assemblyman for Kenering Mohd Tarmizi Idris, but both voted against the motion.

The result of the vote is 48-10 against  the motion and a new Perak Mentri Besar will have to be found.

It would be interesting to find out where else in the legislatures of the world does the proposer and seconder vote against their own motion.

Registrar of Societies should cancel the 30-day provisional dissolution order to PPBM on Monday as it its extraordinarily improper and mala fide for any such order to be issued to any political party on the eve of a general election and caretaker government

The 13th Parliament was dissolved on midnight and what Malaysians have today is a caretaker government, which means a government which should not make any policy decision, spend or promise a single ringgit over and above from what is required in normal government administrative requirements and all government resources including government aircrafts, helicopters and vehicles should be grounded and not misused for electioneering by anyone, whether Prime Minister or any Cabinet Minister, until a new government is elected in the nation’s 14th General Election.

Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia Chairman Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad’s statement yesterday that his party cannot offer the DAP to use its logo as Bersatu must remain a Malay party if the DAP is de-registered which would render the party’s parliamentary and state assembly candidates unable to use the Rocket logo is being exploited by many quarters against the DAP.

Mahathir defended his stance as necessary in order to appeal to the Malay electorate.

He argued that Harapan’s past approach under its predecessor Pakatan Rakyat in 2013 failed to gain sufficient Malay support.

He said: “Whether we like it or not, the Malays are still very communal, which was why they are supporting Umno.

“If they see a multi-racial party, they will not support it. They (Pakatan Rakyat) got a lot of support from the Chinese but little Malay support and without it, you can’t win.”
