Is it the reformist agenda he has touted all this while or him being the prime minister courtesy of Lajim Ukin and Taib Mahmud?
COMMENT
Today we ask ourselves what is the responsible way to vote while our politicians are still focused on retaining or taking power by doing whatever is necessary to do so.
We know that politics is not a job for life but judging from Barisan Nasional’s tenure in office, it can be a highly lucrative vocation. How goes Pakatan Rakyat against an embattled Umno?
Umno has its fixed deposit votes: the Malay votes, the rural votes, the votes from the armed forces, the “religious factor” votes, the “pendatang” votes, the “I scratch your back, you scratch mine back” votes and, of course, there is their impregnable fortress – Johor.
Everything that money can buy, Umno already has. Pakatan has to earn every single vote it takes take from Umno.
