Perak - The "Confusion" Continues...

The Appeal Court decided the "rightful" Menteri Besar of Perak is Zambry.

While I respect the learned Judges' decision, this "confusion" would continue.  For all intent and purposes, the decision should be made by the State Assembly or the people of Perak.

A State Assembly sitting should be called and the motion of no-confidence against Nizar should be tabled.  The Speaker (from Pakatan) should allow this motion to be tabled accordingly.

If that does not break the impasse then a fresh election should be called.  This way the people of Perak would be the decision makers.  We should try to avoid putting this very heavy responsibility on the shoulder of a very few people as discontentment would persist.

My five-sen worth of thoughts...

Khairy ticks off PKR leaders on ‘hotel democracy’

BUKIT MERTAJAM: Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin has chided PKR leaders for treating democracy like a hotel where they can check in and out whenever they wished.

He said the resignation of Penanti assemblyman Mohamad Fairus Khairudin was proof that PKR did not uphold democracy and respect the wishes of the people who voted him in.

“You must honour your pledge to be their representative and not resign as and when you like. This is not a hotel where you can check in and check out anytime you feel like doing so.

“This involves the trust and expectations of the people who supported you,” he said after a meet-the-people session at the Guar Perahu mosque near here yesterday.

Khairy said his movement has started its meet-the-people programmes which would be continued even if by-elections are held in the areas.

“By-elections are not the main reason for Umno to be close to the people. We will be with them rain or shine,” he added.

Khairy said the wing had expressed its views on whether Barisan Nasional should contest in the Penanti by-election but declined to elaborate, adding that the wing would gather information and present them to the party leadership before a decision is made on Monday.

Khairy also urged opposition parties not to be engrossed in politicking as it was detrimental to the country which was facing an economic slowdown.

He expressed the hope that the Perak Mentri Besar issue would be resolved either through the courts or the state assembly and that the majority support in the assembly should be respected.

I seriously think this young punk feels that the public has forgotten his corrupt ways in winning the UMNO Youth Chief post.  I for one would not forget who he is and what he represent!

He is really desperate to "promote" himself after laying low for way too long!  He seems to be a person that badly need a "fix" or else he would suffer from withdrawal syndrome, just like smokers that have not had their cigarette for a few hours! 

Who is he to "tick" off anyone? He has lost that "moral ground" to tick anyone and anything.

If Najib and Co do not fix this guy fast enough, the chances are he would be the real thorn in UMNO's recovery... 

The longer Najib & Co wait, the worst would be the repercussion for Najib as well as UMNO.  There is no two way about it!

KJ slams Anwar for Perak fresh polls dare

NST online - 14 May 2009

SEREMBAN, Thurs: 

Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin yesterday hit out at opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim for daring Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to call for elections in Perak.

Khairy said the Barisan Nasional was not afraid of state elections as alleged by Anwar and was ready for anything.

“We have nothing to be afraid of and are ready to face the people,” he said.

He also called the Parti Keadilan Rakyat leader a hypocrite for courting defections last year but favouring elections when they occurred against the Pakatan Rakyat.

“When things work in their favour, they are quiet but when we managed to obtain a stay of execution, they claim there’s a conspiracy.
“Ultimately, it is a question of principles, consistency and standards, which is something they (the opposition) don’t stand for,” he said after attending an Umno Youth meeting at the state Umno building near here today.

Khairy said the political situation in Perak could only be solved through two processes, legal or legislative.

“Let the legal process be completed first before proceeding with the legislative process,” he said, adding that Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir was the rightful Perak menteri besar as BN had the majority of state seats.

He said the BN would work hard to win over the people of Perak.

Muhyiddin says he can't predict what will happen in Perak - The Malaysian Insider

My comments on The Malaysian Insider's article "Muhyiddin says he can't predict what will happen in Perak" - Tuesday, 12 May 2009

Perak - Dissolve the State Assembly

When there is a political deadlock, the rakyat must be given a chance to decide who should represent their interests.

Since the High Court has made a ruling, the ruling must be uphold.  

And whoever has been declared the rightful MB must seek consent to dissolve the State Assembly.  

The ruler, in this case the Sultan of Perak, must seriously consider allowing the people to decide who should administer the State.  

If appeal and counter-appeal are allowed to proceed, no one party would be satisfied. In the end, the rakyat suffers.

So it is only logical to go back to the voters, the rakyat, to choose who they want.  

This process is a waste of public funds but, unfortunately, it has to be done.  

Neither party would want to give in to the other.  

So let the rakyat decide. All parties then must abide by the rakyat's decision.

Common sense must prevail...!!!

Perak...

The High Court declared Nizar as the rightful MB of Perak.  

What next?

The only certainty is "more resources would be wasted..."

Perak dan Kelantan: Sekadar Ingatan - A Kadir Jasin

My request to A Kadir Jasin on the Perak "crisis"...

_________________________________

Sdr. A Kadir Jasin, I am really baffled to say the least...!!! Why is BN so desperate to takeover Perak from PR? Till today, I have yet to comprehend the official as well as unofficial reasons for this desperate act. Sdr. AKJ, your enlightenment on this is very much appreciated. Sekian.

_______________________________

I really cannot comprehend this desparate act by BN in Perak.

With the support of 3 renegade "wakil rakyat", the BN has simple majority in the DUN. Why can't they go for a vote of no confidence. If the majority agrees to the motion then MB Nizar would become ex-MB. Then again, if the motion is allowed by the Speaker. Here the Speaker must be objective and allow such motion be put to a vote.

Is BN afraid that they would not get to table the motion of no confidence? Maybe. But that cannot justify whatever they are doing now...

The whole circus is a waste of resources - time and money. Consider the number of man-hours wasted and multiple this with the average costs for each man-hour. The number can be staggering. If this wasted man-hour costs is put to economical use the benefits to the people is huge. Think about it.

Sdr The Botak Man,
I won't harzard an answer.
But Si Kitols are everywhere.
They can be in the political parties. They can also be in the Palaces.
Si Kitols play one against another for their personal benefit.
Some Si Kitols survive well and long. They love being seen with powerful people.
Thank you.
