Lame Duck? You Bet!

As Lame As It Gets!

While PM has agreed to an earlier 'power transition' after meetings with his deputy, his action has got huge approval from UMNO grassroots. No matter how hard he denies it, I see it as a gentle sacking from within his own party.... what a sad ending to the most powerful political figure in Malaysia.

Lame duck? YES! He was cornered by everybody; Anwar and PR from the outside while UMNO wanted him out ASAP. Shahrir has said 'lame duck' does not apply here.... hahaha still in denial in an attempt to save face for Pak Lah.

How else would the rakyat describe him? Retiring for the good of the country? That's the opposite! If Pak Lah wants to do the country good, he must stand up and fight! Reform pledges made him a popular figure thus a huge mandate when he lead BN to the best victory in history during the previous GE. When things not going smoothly; the recent GE result showed that the rakyat wants more to be done. He must carry on with his pledges; not just trying to manoeuvre a graceful exit. Is there anything such as a graceful exit in politics?

It was said that many of his reforms agenda were met with huge resistance from within. Zaid gave up and quits because he knew he was fighting a losing battle when his boss are not backing him up. When Muhyiddin wanted him to go citing grassroots sentiments, Pak Lah should act fast and not let the spark becomes fire. Look what happening now. He got cornered while Najib and Muhyiddin are the biggest winner. Indeed in this game Pak Lah loss big. The rakyat loss too!

So with UMNO now becomes a bigger bully, what is in store for the rest of us? Only time will tell.

God help us!
