Here is an interesting take by Malaysiakini on the 'No Confidence' Vote.
Weeks of speculation Muhyiddin's problems passing Budget come to zero
Instead rakyat trained their sights on Anwar Ibrahim
publicly claimed twice he commanded majority support of MPs to be PM
As of today, EIGHT rounds of voting since Dewan Rakyat reconvened on Nov 23
govt yet to even come close to defeat
Anwar's reputation at risk
lose support within PH as their PM candidate
- Anwar not able to provide counter-narrative
- Anwar doesn't have better proposals as basis to reject Budget
- Anwar an empty vessel in Parliament
- which does not change policy positions on Budget
- Anwar did not speak even once when Zafrul delivered speech
- Anwar instructed opposition not to seek "division" vote
- allowing Budget to pass policy stage
Anwar had 8 opportunities to prove his majority but did not
Anwar's ability to lead opposition in next GE in question
If PH questioning Anwar's leadership, it erodes confidence of party members
Eight MPs from Warisan not participating in Budget 2021 debate
further limiting chances of defeating Budget
Warisan decided to "send a signal" to Anwar they disagreed with his strategy
Dr Mahathir criticised Anwar for failing to demand vote on Nov 26
opposition allowed Budget to pass second reading with voice vote
My comments :
It looks like Malaysiakini has nailed it well this time. The shoe has obviously shifted to Brader Anwar's foot.
As of today, EIGHT rounds of voting since Dewan Rakyat reconvened on Nov 23
govt yet to even come close to defeat
To all the Anwar Ibrahim supporters, especially the Chinese and Indians, you are being sold down the river. Correction : you have been sold down the river.
Malaysiakini has brought up an even bigger point : Anwar Ibrahim has become not relevant as the Pakatan Harapan's candidate for Prime Minister.
Despite making bombastic claims that he had the majority support of the MPs to form the government he NOT ONLY COULD NOT stop the Budget 2021 but Anwar Ibrahim instructed the Opposition MPs NOT TO SEEK A DIVISION VOTE against the Budget !!
And according to Malaysiakini's count since November 23rd the government has ALREADY WON EIGHT ROUNDS OF VOTING IN PARLIAMENT !!
So what happened to Brader Anwar's STRONG, CONVINCING, FORMIDABLE NUMBERS ??
I have been saying for 30 years now - the Brader has no substance. He has the ability to speak like a "jual minyak" salesman at Chow Kit Road. That seems to be it. Malaysiakini says :
- Anwar not able to provide counter-narrative
- Anwar doesn't have better proposals as basis to reject Budget
- Anwar an empty vessel in Parliament
- Anwar did not speak even once when Zafrul delivered speech
I have a question for Malaysiakini - Why did it take you this long to realise this?
Now Brader Anwar's only hope - yes this is his only option - of ever becoming Prime Minister is with the support of his old and faithful friend Zahid Hamidi. And Zahid Hamidi has already expressed his support for Brader Anwar's quest to become PM.
There are just a couple of problems with Zahid Hamidi. Zahid does not only NOT command the MPs in UMNO anymore but he has lost their respect quite badly. UMNO Seniors are making fun of Zahid for agreeing to be third fiddle to Anwar Ibrahim when UMNO is still the bigger party in Parliament.
Secondly there is that annoying little detail about Zahid facing so many criminal charges in Court. So far the case against Zahid appears to be quite strong. If convicted, then bye bye Zahid.
So there goes Brader Anwar's only option. Anwar is also getting too old for street demonstrations. Actually his foolish supporters are also getting too old. Takkan sudah boyot, buncit, gout dan kencing manis masih nak lari ke sana ke sini bro?
To conclude I have a question for Anwar Ibrahim's Indian supporters. Go and ask him for a simple and clear answer - If he becomes Prime Minister will Anwar Ibrahim abolish the racial quotas for entry into the medical faculties at the government universities?
Thambi, anna, macha go and ask him lah.
