MAHATHIR MISLEADS THE PEOPLE INTO ACCEPTING NAJIB AS THE PRIME MINISTER!


Mahathir Mohamad has vowed in working to oust the incoming premier Najib Abdul Razak, if he appoints corrupt leaders in his new cabinet. Does it mean that Najib Razak is not corrupt?

How clean is Najib? Can Mahathir prove to the nation that he is supporting an uncorrupt and clean future Prime Minister? Why is Mahathir interfering with the running of the country and the upcoming UMNO elections, when he has already resigned from being an UMNO member? What is his hidden agenda? What powers does he still hold? These are the many pertinent questions cropping up in the minds of the people.

It is very obvious that Mahathir’s reasons are not as simple as they may seem to be. Mahathir is one of the most cunning and shrewdest statesmen of this region. What is the motive behind Mahathir’s tactics? Why is he issuing these kinds of statements now? Is he fearful that Abdullah Badawi may not decide to leave his position as the Prime Minister?

Why this desperation on the part of Mahathir? Why is he pursuing diligently to make sure that Abdullah Badawi does not carry on? Questioning the mind of Mahathir, we can come to the conclusion, that he may have a personal agenda to fulfill. His one and only mission above everything else is to make sure that Anwar Ibrahim does not become the Prime Minister of the nation. Mahathir will go to any extend to prevent Anwar’s ascend to power.

By focusing on the selection of good and clean cabinet members, (which is doubtful with a cabinet full of arrogant and corrupt people), he will be able to divert the attention of the Rakyat. The focus now will be on the cabinet members and not on Najib who is full of controversies.

Secondly this is also to cover up the accusations on Najib’s involvement in the Altantuya Shaaribuu’s murder. Najib is seen to be carrying a heavy baggage of various corruption cases on top of the Altantuya case.

Thirdly, Mahathir is voicing out his views now with so much of fervor so as to be seen to take the side of the public, by saying that he is opposing corruption. On the contrary he has been one of the most corrupt and selfish leaders this country has seen.

Fourthly if the new cabinet is seen to be clean, this will absolve Najib of any wrongdoings. Can a corrupt leader appoint a clean and uncorrupt cabinet?

Mahathir is fundamentally fearful of Abdullah Badawi continuing to be the Prime Minister and he is doing everything possible to make sure that he does not succeed. He has been quoted as saying, “Since half of the BN MPs support Abdullah Badawi and the opposition fully backs him, he will win and continue as prime minister for the opposition.”

In the process of dishonorable manipulations on his part, he has failed to look into the welfare of the nation. He has desperately failed to think of the future of the country and her people that he has so passionately been claiming, as dear to his heart all these years!

His personal vendetta has overcome his national interest and has created this tsunami of the nation’s state of confusion. Mahathir has ignored the path of honorable leaders and shown his true colors of his ignoble quality of selfishness and corruptness.

Then the most important question becomes “Can a dishonest and corrupt leader select a sincere, honest and clean cabinet?” Mahathir is indeed misleading the people into accepting Naib as the Prime Minister! Sadly, this country is gearing itself to being led by the tainted, nationally and internationally blemished deputy prime minister, Najib Razak.
