WHY are we hard on Anwar Ibrahim? Well because we expect more from him than any other Prime Minister since Abdullah Ahmad Badawi promised us the sky but gave us Khairy Jamaluddin and Kalimullah Hassan instead. READ ; Kalimullah Hassan Was Worse Than Satan When Pak Lah Was PM.
We keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say
You were the one that got away
The one that got away
ANWAR Ibrahim has done all right so far as Prime Minister, but we have to accept to these two hypothesis, if the Prime Minister is to succeed in rebuilding Malaysia.
FIRST, we do not live in a perfect world. Because if this was a perfect world , then 40 per cent of the PKR appointees to the cabinet should have been INDIANS.
WHY is that so you may ask, well because READ : Some 40 per cent of PKR members are Indians, says Malaysian Advancement Party president P. Waytha Moorthy.
THERE was no up roar by any community that Indians did not get 40 per cent of the cabinet position but suddenly there is an uproar by the purist when Anwar Ibrahim wants to purge BERSATU and PAS appointees in Government Linked Companies. READ : Govt draws flaks over reappointment of Ahmad Jazlan as Felcra chairman.
POLITICS is about the art of gaining and then consolidating support and to do that, in the interim the Prime Minister will have to approve some political appointments.
THE second hypothesis is ROME was not build in a day, so Anwar Ibrahim will have to go through due process to remove the speaker of Dewan Rakyat, the attorney general and the head of the Securities Commission.
IF you must judge Anwar Ibrahim judge him not in 2023 but in 2024.
