From P Ramasamy
Bersatu deputy president Ahmad Faizal Azumu, popularly known as Peja, seems to think that he is more knowledgeable about the attitude of Malay voters than others, including me, as reported here.
At least I don’t pretend to know or understand the voting behaviour of not just the Malays but Chinese or Indians, too.
Peja made reference to my recent Facebook posting in which I provided analysis of why the green wave might be on the decline.
I gave eight reasons for the decline.
My analysis was not so much about the voting behaviour of the Malays but about the pyrrhic nature of the green wave bubble.
If Peja is so knowledgeable about Malay voters, why did he lose in the parliamentary election in Tambun to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
Was he the victim of his own miscalculation on the voting behaviour of Malay voters in the constituency?
Peja should not pretend that he is the repository of all knowledge about the behaviour of Malay voters.
In fact, he should be humble enough to the extent of wanting to find out why the green wave might be on the decline.
He and other Perikatan Nasional (PN) leaders should not behave as if they know more about Malay voters.
In politics, humility is a virtue, certainly not arrogance. - FMT
