Is Hadi a joker?

 

From P Ramasamy

I think PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang has run out of ideas to the extent he is constantly making bizarre statements.

He cannot even use the right metaphor to describe the former Pakatan Harapan (PH) government.

At the Perikatan Nasional (PN) Convention yesterday, he said that the former PH government was like an “instant noodles government”.

He interpreted “instant noodles” as “uncooked” noodles.

In other words, it was not really a “cooked” government, but “uncooked” like instant noodles.

In reality, the whole idea behind the use of instant noodles is that it gets cooked fast, in a matter of minutes, in comparison to how regular noodles are cooked.

Therefore, equating instant noodles to uncooked noodles is factually wrong.

I believe the analogy he was trying to make by saying that the PH government was like instant noodles, was meant to show it was not a stable or mature government.

He cited the indecision on who should be the prime minister and to be frank, that was an issue that might have plagued the shortlived PH government.

However, it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that the PH government was democratically elected with the mandate from the people in the last general election (GE14).

Unfortunately, it was usurped and undermined by Bersatu, PAS, Umno and others.

Therefore, the PN-led government that took over Putrajaya in March 2020 following the Sheraton Move was an illegal backdoor government.

PAS, among other parties, seized power through illegal means.

Yet Hadi is of the opinion that the PN government came to power through democratic means.

Was the Sheraton Move that engineered the collapse of the PH government endorsed by Parliament?

Hadi was one of the prime architects of the collapse of the PH government.

He cannot whitewash the PN-led government by lying and twisting the facts.

Hadi talks as though there is no one more virtuous than him. However, of late, he seems to have emerged as the most racist and bigoted political leader.

He seems to have completely lost sense of what needs to be said.

Blaming the non-Malays as the source of corruption was another instance of Hadi’s utter political nonsense.

Hadi might have lost his sense of purpose and political balance, however, such traits do not give him the right to say whatever he wants.

Perhaps the time has come when he could be referred to as a comedian. Such a label might predispose Malaysians not to take him seriously anymore. - FMT
