Umno supreme council member Mohd Razlan Rafii said the shifting of allegiance by a number of Bersatu MPs to Langkawi MP Dr Mahathir Mohamad won't guarantee his return as prime minister.
"Even the shift of four to five Bersatu MPs to Mahathir's team does not guarantee he can become prime minister again," Razlan (photo, above) said in a statement.
He did not reveal who are the Bersatu MPs who were said to have switched sides to Mahathir's camp.
To date, the MPs who are known to be Mahathir's loyalists are his son Mukhriz Mahathir (Jerlun), Amiruddin Hamzah (Kubang Pasu), Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman (Muar) and Maszlee Malik (Simpang Renggam).
The four have been loyalists since the start of Mahathir's power struggle with Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin for the control of the party.
Muhyiddin's faction had sacked all five MPs from Bersatu amid speculations of a counter-coup move, but the MPs who are said to be switching sides have yet to reveal themselves.
Razlan said while Mahathir may have the support of more MPs now, he questioned if the Harapan component parties, particularly PKR and DAP, would still be willing to back the former prime minister.
"The leaked audio clip of a Bersatu meeting where Mahathir clearly said he disliked (PKR president) Anwar Ibrahim and DAP clearly showed he is not sincere in being with PKR and DAP.
"Are PKR and DAP prepared (to stand with Mahathir) if they feel that they will be tricked by Mahathir yet again and appoint himself as the ninth prime minister?" he said.
Furthermore, Razlan said, Anwar (above) is now the opposition leader, not Mahathir.
Yesterday, speculation was rife that Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Redzuan Mohd Yusof (Alor Gajah) and Deputy Works Minister Shahruddin Md Salleh (Sri Gading) would declare their support for Mahathir, but this did not materialise.
Based on the current status quo, Muhyiddin has the support of 113 MPs, a two-seat majority in the 222-member Dewan Rakyat.
Muhyiddin was sworn in as the new prime minister on March 1, after Mahathir refused to lead a new coalition Muhyiddin put together, comprising Bersatu, BN, PAS, GPS, PBS and STAR.
Mahathir, whose position as Bersatu chairperson is disputed, has indicated he plans to take Bersatu back to Pakatan Harapan, but Muhyiddin at present appears to have the upper hand in the party.
Razlan said Muhyiddin was trying to cope with the Covid-19 pandemic and Mahathir should not be playing politics at this time.
"Tun should realise the country's politics is not about the political continuity of his children and cronies.
"That's enough, Mahathir. You have been prime minister for 24 years. Your children are millionaires and your family is living a good life. Is that not enough?
"Your services are no longer needed. Malaysia is not called 'Mahathir', nor is it your personal tool," Razlan added. - Mkini
Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr Afrid Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
