Najib’s claim that he has the solid support from his fellow Cabinet members is debatable. No one in his correct and sensible mind will bite his notion that he has the true support from the Cabinet members he appointed. In actuality most of his appointees in the Cabinet are playing double game behind the Prime Minister Najib. His fellow colleagues in the Cabinet are trying to disown the spirit of collective responsibility and accountability and wanted to let Najib to surface with the problems alone and unassisted.
Most of them wanted Najib to answer the question posed by Mahathir in the issue of 1MDB and various other issues that engulf Najib since months ago. When Najib’s chips are down his own appointed men in the Cabinet are hesitant to stand by him. Some are going in the open asking Najib to answer the entire questions put forward by Mahathir to answer. Muhyidin, Shafie Apdal and the youth chief are among the Cabinet members who came out joining the chorus of Mahathir asking the PM to answer all the queries from Dr Mahathir.
It is morally and ethically flawed for Cabinet members to unfasten their responsibility in answering Mahathir’s aggravating questions to the Prime Minister. Muhyiddin and the whole Cabinet members should be jointly accountable and be able to answer all allegations against the Prime minister. All Cabinet members should be able to answer on behalf of the Prime Minister as all deals in 1MDB were collective Cabinet decisions.
It abhors when hearing Cabinet members denying their liability on the 1MDB as they should know the entire goings on in any company that is owned by the Ministry of Finance. In the quiet some of the Ministers give inexcusable reason that Najib had never informed the Cabinet on the deals of 1MDB. How could that be?
They should have demanded from the PM in the weekly meetings about 1MDB as this issue had cropped up in the open for the past four years. By not querying the PM about the deal is as good as collaborating with the dubious act of the Finance Minister and the PM.
It is unspeakably irresponsible for any Cabinet member to deny responsibility on this issue by asking Najib to answer all queries from Dr Mahathir and other pressure groups. Muhyiddin and the rest in the Cabinet have lost all their dignity by denying directly or indirectly their accountability in the awful deals of investment arm of the government.
In reality if Najib is ousted by this issue the whole Cabinet lineup should quit as they were appointed by this ailing Premier. It is depressing to discover that there are groups are in the act of installing Muyiddin as the PM once Najib is ousted. Please realize that he is part and parcel of the weak Cabinet that made all the decisions on 1MDB.
Muhyiddin and the Cabinet were working hand-in-glove with Najib and the Cabinet to approve the proposal by Najib and 1MDB to give RM950 million as standby credit for 1MDB. If the Cabinet including Muhyiddin were at all honest to circumvent the conned act of the PM they would have shot down the stand-by credit of RM950 million for 1MDB proposed by Najib.
Hence replacing Najib with Muhyiddin will put us at risk of returning to more insurmountable problems in the near foreseeable future. Then we are not solving the problems but instead giving another lease of evil, devilish and irresponsible regime to manage us in perpetuity.
Let us admit that the spirit accountability is already out of fashioned these days.
