The Continuing Travails Of Brader Anwar And His Elusive Parliamentary Seat, MP For Port Dickson Will Vacate His Seat?

The latest news I heard on the whatsapp vine is that PKR MP for Port Dickson Danyal Balagopal will be vacating his Parliamentary seat in Port Dickson to allow Brader Anwar to contest in a By Election.  An announcement is due in about 48 hours.

Its good to see Brader Anwar singing, dancing and having a good time. Certainly all those back injuries and shoulder pains have healed.

Let me start this by saying that I do admire or respect some people in PKR.  Number 1 is of course Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, now our Deputy Prime Minister. It is a great achievement by any measure for Dr Wan Azizah to have become the Deputy Prime Minister. 

But (despite all my differences with their party before) my highest regard for Wan Azizah's immense patience, fortitude and all that she has endured over the past 20 years of her life, being the ever faithful wife, mother and the lady who kept the party together throughout her husband's absence.  Now she is our Deputy Prime Minister. I hope Wan Azizah can sustain in the DPM's post for her full term. Talk is that she may just be a seat warmer and become the shortest duration DPM in the country's history. This is a real possibility if Brader Anwar gets into Parliament.

The other person in PKR whom I respect is Tian Chua. Aside from the politics, Tian Chua showed tremendous amount of courage, tenacity, commitment and loyalty to the party and to the cause in which he believed. Getting arrested many times, beaten by the Police, had his shirt torn, dragged in the street and thrown in jail. An unbelievable commitment. 

Now Tian Chua is history in the PKR. But tabik bro. You will not be forgotten. Some day history will write about you favourably. 

Here is more news about PKR. 

First up is Tian Chua. 

Tian Chua questioned Rafizi announcing parliamentary seat would be vacated 
to enable Anwar Ibrahim to contest in a by-election

Tian Chua said matter never discussed among party’s senior leadership
announcement by Rafizi all the more puzzling

Rafizi, he said, has no right to make announcement 
Who is Rafizi to announce this? 

Wan Azizah forced to confirm matter because Rafizi announced it
not sure if Wan Azizah even knew 

no one knew of the move. Just like the ‘Kajang Move’, no one knew
should be discussed at leadership level, cannot be done in secret,” he told NSTP

Tian Chua tweet - questioned individual appointed himself kingmaker for all matters

also questioned how many times this individual intended to drag party into mud
as what happened during the Kajang Move

Rafizi revealed parliamentary seat vacated next for Anwar 
Wan Azizah declined to reveal which MP would be giving up seat for Anwar

(Rafizi) no right to make announcement
no right to go around as if making decisions for everything,” he said.

Tian Chua sarcastically replied Rafizi decides “all matters, decisions in OKR.”

He wants to show the world he is the one who planned everything
he said he planned Amanah and PH to be established
He arranged for Khalid Ibrahim to go down. He arranged it all

now planning for Anwar’s transition to prime minister
he says, he planned every single thing

NSTP reaching out to Rafizi for comments.

My comments :  So Rafizi went ahead and announced (last week - Thursday?) that someone would vacate a seat for Anwar.  It will not be Wan Azizah or Nurul Izzah. It would have to be someone else.

One former MP messaged to me :  "It should be either Wan Azizah or Nurul Izzah. They should vacate their seat for Anwar".

Another viral Whatsapp fingered  the PKR MP for Nibong Tebal as the person who was supposed to vacate his Parliamentary seat for Brader Anwar. The Nibong Tebal MP has since denied the suggestion completely. Here be the news:

Nibong Tebal MP Mansor Othman denied vacating seat for Anwar by-election

message is not correct
I deny I will vacate Nibong Tebal seat
I will not give up Nibong Tebal seat, he said 

During Sungai Kandis, Anwar say seat vacated to allow him to contest 
hinted he would return as MP by year end
Saifuddin confirmed announcement after he returns from Hong Kong this Wed 

My comments :  Wow, Brader Anwar is in Hong Kong?? Over Awal Muharram?  Brader Anwar ada bisnes apa pula di Hong Kong?  Officiating at the Hong Kong Whampoa Chinese Muslims Halal Chicken Slaughterers Associations'  Annual General Meeting ke?     (Xiānggǎng huángbù huárén mùsīlín Halal Chicken Slaughterers Association niándù dàhuì) It does not exist. I just made it up, ok. 

Wife and daughter will not vacate. 
That Selayang fellow will not vacate. 
Nibong Tebal will not vacate. 
UMNO independents will not vacate.
Johari Abdul? Has agreed but has not vacated yet. 
Tunggu drama be$aq ke Jo? 

Well this means more delay. I doubt Anwar will be able to make that announcement when he comes back from Hong Kong on Wednesday? As the stomach churns.

Other than normal kai, Hong Kong does offer sum-yung-gai as well.

Here is another Tamil song.  Cannot dance too much to this tune. As you can see, riding a bicycle could be more appropriate.
