1M PM6 : So many problems, so little options...

1. When it rains, it pours. The people has send a strong message to BN, better buck up or else...

2. With that "get up" warning, BN works overtime to arrest their slide. And 1 year after, we see new presidents leading UMNO, Gerakan and MCA. Malaysia even has new 1M PM6 who took his oath of office on 3rd April 2009.

3. The new presidents promise reforms within their own parties whilst MIC, PPP and other BN component parties take a "wait and look" approach. They may change their presidents or the presidents may hang on to their posts, despite losing in 8th March 2008 election.

4. For the time being, the chips are down for BN. Apparently, even BN component parties are hounding the PM in a bid to strengthened their position.

5. Kayveas of PPP has taken steps to sack T Murugiah, the only PPP representative in PM6's cabinet. On top of that, Kayveas has gone 1 step further to propose Murugiah's replacement when PM6 has not even decided whether to retain Murugiah or not. Case of 1 upmanship by Kayveas?

6. Next comes Gerakan. Teng Hock Nan of Penang Gerakan urged PM6 to consider allowing communist Chin Peng to return to Malaysia. His reasons? Chin Peng is no longer a security threat.

7. If PPP can, MIC also can. Vell Paari, MIC VP aspirant cum Samy Vellu's son reportedly asked Kayveas (again?) to provide an explanation on the Kayveas remark calling MIC - monkeys in a cage.

8. MCA? They also has theirs. With their members helming PKA and PKFZ, all is not well there. PKFZ chief executive resigned whilst PKFZ Chairman still cannot produce the audit report on Port Klang Free Zone whilst the minister in charge cum MCA president, OTK, is passing the buck to the cabinet.

9. SPDP's Tiong King Sing who is also BN's BBC's chairperson has a controlling stake in one of the companies dealing with PKFZ.

10. Sabah's Musa Aman is stuck with Mazu statue. For this time, I am leaving out Taib mahmud as he is still grieving on the loss of his wife to cancer.

11. There you have it. How will 1M PM6 steer his way out with so many problems facing him and BN? And Perak political impasse is not included yet.

12. Will PM6, with his back on the wall, begin to take decisive action to stop BN's rot? Will BN components continue hounding him so that they can find an excuse to abandon BN and make a beeline to PR?

13. If the first 30 days on PM6 is interesting, wait for the next 60 days and see what he is made of. Man of steel or just a paper tiger...

14. PM6 has few options but he has to juggle carefully or else the eggs will be breaking on his face. He has to show Kayveas who is the boss, corraled in Gerakan within BN's understanding against communism, reprimanded MIC on hearing hearsays, allow MCA to publish PKFZ report...

15. Right now, he has nothing to lose but lots to gain. As said earlier, let's see what PM 6 is made of...


Till then...G'nite M'sia...wherever u are...

Dear Sir

The company we keep does reflect our own worth.

So, go figure what he is made of looking at our comical and childish (kitchen) cabinet and its running dogs (plus the botoxish mem) :)

As politicians, they have different companies to suit the time and conditions. If they happen to make their rounds in Chow Kit, will that make them drunkards, addicts or pros?

Kitchen cabinet? He should try adding Wenger, Sak, Zorro for more oommpph.

Running dogs? I thought that only happens in an island off Pulau Ketam? And even that, they are starving....

Botoxish mem? Well, in that case, I raised my white flag...never use, never need, never think of botoxing, just to be photogenic...

Dear Sir

I mentioned - the company you keep. Not the people you meet.

Thats their responsibility to go do rounds in Chow Kit. But did they ever do that? I remember only Allahyarham Sudirman had his big concert there too long a time ago. Even the police f(a)rce closed their mobile station.

Well, i am so sure you know what i mean - literally and figuratively.

p.s. wow, you are one funny guy sir (yes, sarcastically out by me)

Chow kit? Yes, politicians go there. Najib goes as far as Masjid India before he turned back to Puduraya, Tg Razaleigh went there to visit the orphanage, the FT Minister also went there. Even the Domestic trade minister visited the chow kit market. Of course, they go there to visit and not to hold concerts!! They are not entertainers...

The police mobile station was demobilised because the mobile station area could not provide best services to the people i.e. it was next to the rubbish bin, in line with a row of shophouses that sells gaming tickets. It is also out of pedestrian paths and as such is unsuitable. The only slag there is the former Interior minister, Hamid Al Blur, blurted out the wrong statement implying that the police were scared of drug addicts and pros.
