Question for Muhyiddin: Was Mahathir subservient to DAP when he was Prime Minister the second time for 22 months?
Posted by Kit in Muhyiddin Yassin, Perikatan Nasional on Saturday, 16 December 2023
Perikatan Nasional chairperson Muhyiddin Yassin said that “DAP’s dominance in the current government could make it possible for a non-Malay to be appointed as the Prime Minster.
Challenge to Hadi and Muhyiddin — what they want Malaysia to be world champions of
Posted by Kit in Elections, Hadi Awang, Muhyiddin Yassin on Thursday, 22 June 2023
The six state general elections in August is the beginning of Malaysia becoming world champions again or Malaysia remaining in the trajectory of a divided, failed, and rogue state in the coming decades.
What I would do in Parliament if I am Muhyiddin or Hadi
Posted by Kit in Hadi Awang, Muhyiddin Yassin on Monday, 8 May 2023
If I am Muhyiddin Yassin or Hadi Awang, I would ask the Opposition Leader Hamzah Zainudin to move a motion in the three-week parliamentary meeting starting on May 22 to commend Malaysia for the 40-ranking jump in the RSF’s World Press Freedom Ranking 2023 where Malaysia jumped from the 113th ranking in 2022 to 73rd ranking in 2023, challenge the Anwar unity government to perform a similar 40-ranking jump in the annual Transparency International (TI ) Corruption Perception Index (CPI) to jump from the 61st ranking in the TI CPI 2022 to 21st ranking in the TI CPI 2023, and to express support for the aspiration of the Yang di Pertuan Agong and various Sultans for political stability and national unity in the country, and to endorse the vision for Malaysia to achieve developed nation status, and the nine strategic objectives of Vision 2020 by the end of the five year term of the Anwar unity government in 2027.
Will Muhyiddin and Hadi take up Anwar’s challenge and move a vote of no confidence in him as 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia in the May/June meeting of Parliament?

This is the first time that I am speaking publicly at a DAP function after I announced my retirement from the DAP leadership last March. One of the reasons is that it is at the invitation of the DAP State Johore as at the end of it all, I am a Johorian.
The 48-hour silence of Muhyiddin and Hadi that they will not be involved in any plot to topple the Anwar Unity government for the next five years is loud and significant as it indicate that the two political leaders want Malaysia to continue to have political instability and to stumble from one crisis to another, without any hope of a recovery

The 48-hour silence of Muhyiddin Yassin and Hadi Awang that they will not be involved in any plot to topple the Anwar Unity government for the next five years is loud and significant as it indicate that the two political leaders, as well as Bersatu and PAS, want Malaysia to continue to have political instability and to stumble from one crisis to another without any hope of a recovery.
Hamzah Zainudin may have committed serious offences when he said he has files on government party leaders from his time as Home Minister

Parliamentary Opposition Leader, Hamzah Zainudin may have committed serious offences when he said he has files on government party leaders from his time as Home Minister.
As he is no more Home Minister, Hamzah should not wilfully retain government files.
It’s make-or-break time for Malaysia, the most critical period for the country in the last six decades as to whether Malaysia can reset and return to the original nation-building principles to become a first-rate world-class nation, or we are fated to become a divided, failed, and kleptocratic state

We are now in the most critical make-or-break period of the country in the last six decades as to whether Malaysia can reset and return to the original nation-building principles to become a first-rate world-class nation, or we are fated to become a divided, failed, and kleptocratic state.
Recently, I came across a 54-year-old Official Secrets Act (OSA) document, which was declassified on 24th February 2020 as a result of a defamation suit I instituted against the former Inspector-General of Police, Tun Hanif Omar, that stated that in my statement to the police during my first Internal Security Act detention in 1969, I told the Police that I wanted a “clean, honest, efficient, incorruptible, and effective government”.
The real power behind the Opposition Leader has spoken: it’s a declaration of war as Muhyiddin has completely ignored the Yang di Pertuan Agong’s wishes that he will not swear in another Prime Minister before his five-year reign ends next January

The real power behind the Parliamentary Opposition Leader has spoken — it’s a declaration of war as the the Bersatu President Muhyiddin Yassin has completely ignored the 16th Yang di Pertuan Agong’s wishes that he will not have to swear in another Prime Minister before his five-year reign ends next January.
Yesterday, I criticised the Opposition Leader Hamzah Zainudin for failing the Agong’s test to ensure political stability for the next five years to allow the country to unite a very polarised plural nation, and to reset and return to the original nation-building principles to become a first-rate world-class nation.
There is a fourth reason why Muhyiddin is not the Parliamentary Opposition Leader — his dismal record in fighting corruption when he was first “backdoor” Prime Minister

I have given three reasons why Muhyiddin Yassin is not the Parliamentary Opposition Leader although he has not given up hope to become prime Minister again.
Why is Muhyiddin Yassin not the Parliamentary Opposition Leader?

Why is Muhyddin Yassin not the Parliamentary Opposition Leader?
Is he retiring from politics?
A breakthrough for Malaysia in Covid-19 pandemic in the last six days with triple-digit daily cases and single-digit daily deaths in Malaysia which should be a prelude to a wide-ranging study why Malaysia, indexed as among the top 20 countries in the world in a global study on health in 2019, became one the worst performers in the Covid-19 pandemic
Posted by Kit in COVID-19, Muhyiddin Yassin on Friday, 23 December 2022
Malaysia achieved a breakthrough in the Covid-19 pandemic, recording triple-digit daily Covid-19 cases and single-digit daily Covid-19 deaths for six consecutive days, bringing Malaysia back to more than two years ago before Malaysia broke the daily barrier for triple-digit Covid-19 cases and single-digit Covid-19 deaths, reaching five-digit daily new Covid-19 cases and triple-digit daily Covid-19 deaths terminating the “backdoor” premiership of Muhyiddin Yassin.
Muhyiddin’s most patriotic duty is to abstain from the vote of confidence in Parliament as his opposition to the motion would mean he subordinates the country’s stability and future to his own personal and selfish zeal to become a “backdoor” Prime Minister again

Muhyiddin Yassin’s most patriotic duty is to abstain from the vote of confidence in Parliament as his opposition to the motion would mean that he subordinates the country’s stability and future to his own personal and selfish zeal to become a “backdoor” Prime Minister again.
I think I have the qualifications to tell Muhyiddin a thing or two how to be a responsible Opposition Leader having served as the longest Opposition Leader in the country — even in the darkest days of parliamentary democracy in the country.

Advice to Muhyiddin and Hadi not to be desperadoes and not to go against the teachings of Islam and all great religions not to resort to lies and falsehood just for worldly gains

I arrived in Penang only at 5.30 am this morning.
After logging about 15,000 kilometres in the two-week election campaign since Nomination Day on Nov 5, 2022, covering Penang, Kedah, Perak, Selangor, Pahang, Malacca, Johore, Sabah and Sarawak to campaign for Pakatan Harapan candidates and Pakatan Harapan President Anwar Ibrahim to be made the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia to head a Pakatan Harapan Federal Government in Putrajaya, speaking at two to three ceramahs a night, I took the last flight from Kuala Lumpur to Penang at 11.20 pm yesterday, 16th November 2022.
How can Muhyiddin be an “overlooked reformer” when SOSMA, Sedition Act and Prevention of Crimes Act remain untouched on the statute books despite his being Home Minister for 22 months and Prime Minister for 17 months?

How can the Parliament Speaker Azhar Azizan Harun hail Muhyiddin Yassin as an “overlooked reformist” when SOSMA, Sedition Act and the Prevention of Crimes Act remain untouched on the statute books despite his being Minister for 22 months and Prime Minister for 17 months?
Azhar said on Friday at the launch of the book “Muhyiddin Yassin: Leading a Nation in Unprecedented Crisis” by Abdul Mutalib Razak that he could speak from personal experience as among Muhyiddin’s first initiatives as minister was to set up a committee to look into laws that were deemed “unsuitable” such as the Sedition Act, the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act, and the Prevention of Crimes Act.

The Speaker, Azhar Azizan Harun, took everybody by surprise when at the launch of the book, “Muhyiddin Yassin: Leading a Nation in Unprecedented Crisis” by Abdul Mutalib Razak, he described the eighth Prime Minister of Malaysia as an “overlooked reformist” which “many choose to overlook, for whatever reason they may have:”.

Malaysia would have performed better in fighting the Covid-19 pandemic if an emergency had not been declared on January 11 last year
Posted by Kit in COVID-19, Emergency, Muhyiddin Yassin on Monday, 17 January 2022
I am shocked that the former Prime Minister, Muhyddin Yassin, is still trying to justify the declaration of Emergency on January 11, 2021 which completely undermined parliamentary oversight of the government in fighting the Covid-19 pandemic until the month of August and made Malaysia one of the worst performing nations in the world in the two-year battle with the Covid-19 pandemic.
Muhyiddin attempted to justify the declaration of Emergency on January 11, 2021 in an interview with Abu Dhabi-based newspaper, The National, where he claimed that the additional powers were important to fight the Covid-19 pandemic. Read the rest of this entry »
Malacca General Election the most extraordinary of the 22 general elections in my experience – an election where physical campaigning is banned
Posted by Kit in DAP, Elections, Muhyiddin Yassin, PH Government on Friday, 19 November 2021
The Malacca General Election is the most extraordinary of the 22 general elections in my experience in the last 56 years – an election where all forms of physical campaigning are banned.
I have gone through 12 national general elections, nine Sarawak state general elections and countless by-elections but this is the first time that we have an election where there are no public rallies, ceramahs, talks and walkabouts – which put the Opposition parties at a great disadvantage.
Nobody can be certain what would be the outcome of the Polling Day tomorrow. Read the rest of this entry »
Objection inside Bersatu to Mas Ermieyati’s appointment as Malacca Chief Minister is the Bersatu time-bomb in Malacca
Posted by Kit in COVID-19, DAP, Muhyiddin Yassin, PH Government on Saturday, 13 November 2021
Malaysians must be startled by Muhyiddin Yassin’ spate of confessions in the last two days as a renegade in the 22-month Pakatan Harapan government, in particular his statement that he is not like Mahathir Mohamad and that Perikatan Nasional (PN) won’t lie to the people.
It would appear that the main conspirator in the Sheraton Move conspiracy which toppled a democratically-elected Pakatan Harapan government after 22 months, and ushered in two backdoor, undemocratic and illegitimate governments was not Azmin Ali but Muhyiddin Yassin. Read the rest of this entry »
Will Muhyiddin continue to support Ismail Sabri as Prime Minister if Bersatu is completely wiped out by UMNO in the Malacca general election?
Posted by Kit in DAP, Elections, Muhyiddin Yassin, PH Government on Friday, 12 November 2021
There is a lot of attention in the Malacca general election on “political frogs” but there is no proper discussion on political principles and integrity as if it is a sin and an unpardonable crime to change political parties.
Winston Churchill changed political parties twice, firstly as a Conservative when he first became Member of Parliament in 1901, but he became a Liberal in 1904 protesting against “protectionism” in the Conservative Party. In 1923, he returned to the Conservative Party in protest against Liberal-Labour co-operation.
Was Churchill wrong? I would not say so, as Churchill’s political shift was one of principle and he was prepared to face the verdict of the electorate.
This was why when I suggested in Parliament on March 21, 1978 for a law to prevent party-hopping, I said: Read the rest of this entry »
Great reservations that Muhyiddin, the person responsible for the losing war against the Covid-19 pandemic and millions of Covid-19 cases and tens of thousands of Covid-19 deaths is Chairman of National Recovery Council

I have grave reservations that Muhyiddin Yassin, the person responsible for the losing war against the Covid-19 pandemic and the millions of Covid-19 cases and tens of thousands of Coivid-19 deaths is Chairman of the National Recovery Council.
Muhyiddin said yesterday that he has been given the same amount of authority as when he was Prime Minster to make decisions for the National Recovery Plan (NRP) except when it involves money. Read the rest of this entry »
