NAJIB'S BITTER PILL FOR DR M TO SWALLOW: FOR NOW, MUKHRIZ'S WORK IN KEDAH IS DONE

steadyaku47 comment - We are being led to believe that the "crisis" in Kedah is one between who the people of Kedah wants as their MB and what the powers that be from Umno wants as their MB. Lest we get carried away with the rhetoric's being hurled at each other by both side a few "facts" has emerged from this conundrum.

At the last Kedah state executive council weekly meeting only three out of the nine exco members attended that meeting with Menteri Besar Mukhriz. Any which way you look at it - Mukhriz no longer has the support of Umno in Kedah.

And since the state exco are the elected representative of the people of Kedah, common sense tells you that Mukhriz no longer has the support of the people of Kedah too.

As president of Umno, Najib Razak appointed Mukhriz to the position of MB and as president of Umno he can replace Mukhriz with someone who enjoys the confidence of Umno and the elected representative of the people of Kedah - in this case the Kedah State Assemblymen - six of which did not attend the weekly exco meeting held recently.

Mukhriz’s function as state liaison chief was no longer tenable. “In UMNO’s structure, the liaison head is appointed by the Prime Minister as the UMNO President, but the appointment is supported by the divisions in the state. So if the divisions no longer support you, you no longer can function, it is as simple as that,” Othman Aziz

This is an open and shut case. Anything else are just sandiwara which money, influence and your ability to "play politics" can make happen. Whether that involve organizing a crowd of thousands to parade the streets of Kedah to loudly voice their support for or against Mukhriz or have people from various walks of life voice their reasons as to why Mulhriz can or cannot stay as MB.

For now, Mukhriz work in Kedah is done. -  http://steadyaku-steadyaku-husseinhamid.blogspot.my/
