Statesman or madman?

What does one mean when one says that if there were to be a snap election PR would win so don't have a snap-election but rather a confidence vote in the house?

Simple. It means that at that point in time in wherever the snap-election is held, PR is the stronger party. Is that all? Sadly no. It reveals much more.

It also means that the voters, and by voters I mean the Rakyat, wants PR to rule otherwise why would they want to vote the PR in anyway?

There is more to the above statement. It shows the total disregard for the people's wishes by the person who said it.

When that person uttered those words, he had admitted that it is the wish of the people of Perak that they wanted PR to be their government. Isn't that what democracy is all about? The people?

So if he knew that it's the PR that the people wished for isn't he being irresponsible when he said that there should not be a snap-election? Does not that mean that he is actually saying that the wishes of the majority is not important?

These are the words of a power mad man, not a statesman. A statesman would do what is right and the right thing here is to accede to the wishes of the Rakyat. A power mad man would do anything so long as he retains power.

A statesman in my dictionary is not someone who develops a country while enriching kins and cronies. A statesman knows how to make a clear distinction between right and wrong and so if he chooses a clear wrong over an unmistakable right, is he still a statesman?

Not in my book.

AGREED! After seeing the report on interview with the madman, I was waiting eagerly for commentary like this to come out in the blogosphere... I mean how thick-skinned can one be to utter such irresponsible words in open public?! Much worse an ex-premier!!

Unknown said...

ashleigh,
'irresposibe', that's the key word here. He just couldn't be bothered.

Pak Zawi said...

Cikgu,
Spot on. If only he had kept quiet, he could be mistaken as a statesman.
Congratulations! Your post is now picked up by MT.

It's all right. He hasn't got much longer to live. The day of reckoning is drawing nearer-Allah Almighty he will have to account for.

panca said...

Cikgu,

He is gladly known as a 'statesman' that he is but isn't he more than that despite being retired from the PM post? He is the de facto PM, he acts like, speaks like and decides like one! Like the cynical bridge' it's crooked for the money.

Yap said...

Madman talks nonsense. His brain has gone haywire, short circuit somewhere. Should be in a cold storage and let him enjoy his illgotten commission.

Unknown said...

Pak Zawi,
mana tau kenyataan dia itu satu perangkap? Sebab dengan sekoq rangtua ni, saya tak akan percaya sampai bila-bila.

Unknown said...

Anonymous,
Is there any way to speed it up?

Unknown said...

Panca,
Even his bridge has to be crooked. Who knows he initially intended for the KLCC to be crooked too?

Unknown said...

PM,
Oh, he is enjoying it alright.

Tok guru is a statesman but the MAMAK is politician of the lowest level.His intention now is to see Mukhris to become PM.He never care about the people but only his cronies including one MC. So please don't compare HIM with statesman.

By the way, I have a question.Is Nazrin next in line to replace Azlan?I thought he was Raja di Hilir.When he was promoted to be Raja Muda?

Mamadey is not a madman nor a statesman. He is the devil incarnate, the dajjal and the destroyer of the Malays.

Another fellow Mamak

Salam Cikgu,

Huh? Who...? Oh, you mean that zambekk's uncle huh? Nah, Holden Statesman, maybe. But even that would be an insult to that car.

frankie said...

A stateman won't let his deputy being accused sodomising, then let the police chief whack his deputy while in custody to a pulp. And while his deputy down the slump, he kept on stomping on him by orchestrating fictitious charges on his deputy.

And the best thing is he didn't feel any guilt at all. Made me wonder if this guy has any heart left in his body.

Shah,
Holden Statesman? How come he hates Australia then?

Unknown said...

Frankie,
Exactly so to those who still believes he is one, open up your eyes. His recent statement reveals the absence of statesmanship in him.
