My Comments :

The October 7th date can be dismissed. It is least likely that the GE will be held this year at all.

Another theory says that the GE will be held around Chinese New Year 2023 (CNY falls on January 22nd, 2023). 

Another "well informed" theory says that one more passenger would have bought his ticket to Sungei Buloh Station by that time.  

I think that is a more likely scenario. 

If an MP is convicted by the Court on a criminal charge he cannot be nominated as a candidate for any Parliamentary elections, even if he appeals his conviction. 

What about eligibility to contest in future elections?

While an MP can hold on to his seat as long as he has an appeal pending in the courts, an individual sentenced to more than RM2,000 fine or more than one-year jail would not be allowed to be an election candidate for federal seats even if there is an ongoing appeal.

“In terms of eligibility to contest as an MP, pursuant to Art 48(5), the effect of such a conviction operates immediately and notwithstanding any appeals filed,” he said.

Under Article 48(5), a person is “immediately” disqualified upon such sentencing from being nominated, or contesting in elections or being appointed to either the Dewan Rakyat or Dewan Negara.

Such a ban would last for five years, noting that : “Article 48(3) basically says an MP upon being disqualified under Article 48(1)(e), cannot run for office to be an MP for a period of five years from the date of his sentence.”

OSTB : The big fight in Parti Rasuah will be who will control the surat watikah. Meaning who will choose the candidates to represent Parti Rasuah? He who chooses the candidates will also control the fate and future of the candidates. Win or lose they will become his slaves.

That one fellow is absolutely desperate to have the elections today because he feels he can escape the hangman's rope that is coming closer and closer to him. Too late. If you do the crime then you have to do the time. He will not hang but he will certainly get put away for a long time.
