Mr Lim's Meeting With Some Chinese Corporate Big Wigs.

Talk is some Chinese corporate big wigs recently had a meeting with Mr Lim. 

Two of them have initials JC and WC. 

They were most unhappy with a few things in the country including that khat issue, the Zakir thing, the Dong Zong as well as the Lynas issue.

(For the record I have never criticised the Lynas plant - I have my reasons on the subject.) 

The corporate bigwigs are said to have told Mr Lim that if he does not make a firm stand on the above issues, 'he will be removed'. Meaning they will not support Mr Lim and his party anymore. 

Later Mr Lim is believed to have had a meeting with other MPs from his party - the second such meeting in recent weeks.  The consensus among the MPs was similar to what the corporate bigwigs had said.  Make a clear stand against those issues. 

It would seem that both the Chinese corporate bigwigs plus the other MPs from the party  conveyed the general feelings of the entire Chinese community.  To ignore their views would be or could be quite suicidal.

However Mr Lim has decided to stand by the PM.  In his calculations this is indeed a golden opportunity for him and his party. They have been struggling for decades with little to show. Now they are on the inside.  This opportunity cannot be  wasted. 

Mr Lim also said that power does not reside with the Brader anymore. 

The Brader does not have the numbers with him.   

To stand with the Brader  would be a seriously wrong political move. 

So the Brader is now quite alone.

Of course this also places Mr Lim at the mercy of the PM.

Which Mr Lim am I talking about? 

Its a common name.
