Mahathir’s Resignation Brought The Pakatan Government Down (In Other Obvious News)

(Batu 9: Prabaganesan) – The two-time PM Mahathir Mohamad has resorted to pointing to others for his downfall, without looking at a mirror. That’s where the true villain of his piece resides.
He asked to leave. The government collapsed thereafter.
What about the shenanigans at the Pakatan Harapan Council meeting on Feb 21, and then the subterfuges over that weekend, which shocked him so much he resigned?
Was it ever possible for Pribumi Bersatu’s senior leadership and PKR’s alternative leadership to plan a transfer of majority from Pakatan — eject DAP, Anwar’s PKR and no one’s Amanah — to a new ultra-Malay bloc without Mahathir’s awareness of the sordid proceedings?
He was not upset that they were conspiring. He was displeased it had Umno in it, and not Umno deserters. The old man wanted the allure of power to force the Umno rats to flee a sinking ship, in his mind anyways. And therefore a rejuvenated Pribumi Bersatu with PKR rebels and Umno has-beens can march to Putrajaya with PAS as garnish. Mahathir in a true Malay bloc.
Rebrand themselves as the New New Umno (Umno Baru Terbaru)— Umno Baru is already taken, unfortunately.
School history curriculum developers, like in 1990, do not need to disrupt the story flow in textbooks of Umno from 1946 to 2020. They’d have to label 2018 to 2020 as something, though.
Only printers need to cringe about the loss of contracts to print newer versions of the past.
Alas, Mahathir’s operators did not execute exactly.
Muhyiddin Yassin and Azmin Ali, thought it was the same thing, having Umno inside rather than Umno deserters. Mahathir disagreed and went for a different plan. A better improved plan, in his mind.
To those less aware, since Pakatan won Putrajaya, all losers queued to kiss the grandmaster’s hand. Repeatedly and often. Mahathir had to endure almost two years of completely obnoxious politicians falling over each other to love him more than the next selfish politician.
It seemed every elected politician in Malaysia, the 220 MPs after crossing off Mahathir and Anwar, wanted the mighty tactician to be numero uno. PAS willed a parliamentary vote to show its undying devotion for Mahathir before events overtook that eventuality.
Mahathir thought he transcended coalition, party, ideology and the time-space continuum. To be PM for all sides means he is obligated to no side. No more Pakatan presidential council to answer to, or any other council.
And they all did look for him, swarming his office but somehow contrived to name Muhyiddin or Anwar when they went to see the Agong to state their choice of PM.
An alarmed Mahathir tried to present his case to the Malaysian people on live TV on February 26, but it was too late.
The bus already left the MRT station, and all the other developments altered the equations permanently.
Today, Mahathir knows the game is up. He’s a retiree, finally.
The cliché is too tempting, it’s a younger man’s game now.
No country for old men.
