“Anwar..Even If You Love him??”
January 25, 2010 9 Comments
The word is out and if Anwar does not act against Kulim Bandar Baharu MP Zulkifli Noordin he is putting the Pakatan coalition at risks of being divided in opinions. Lim Kit Siang DAP supremo has already said the Pakatan coalition will survive even though if Anwar is jailed for his sodomy case.
According to a number of political analysts Anwar will be as good as like a martyr to the Pakatan coalition and the people who supports him if he is again jailed. However there are those who will question whether he will be spoken in same breadth as Nelson Mandela of the ANC and Aung San Suu Kyi (Burmese democarcy leader). That remains to be seen as and when the time comes.
But for now Anwar needs to sort out this thorn that has been pricking the backside of the Pakatan coalition. No one is indispensable and not even Zulkifli even if Anwar loves him so much.
The Pakatan coalition will be at risk and drastic and immediate measures must be taken by PKR to stem the threat of a breakup. Of course PKR has ways to deal with this problems but when someone has grown to be too big for the party to handle the disciplinary committtee of PKR needs to swing into action.
This is the usual practise of all political parties in Malaysia but few dare to take that line….
The article which appeared in Malaysiakini portal:-
Pakatan Rakyat stalwart Zaid Ibrahim has called for the sacking of PKR’s outspoken Kulim Bandar Baharu MP Zulkifli Noordin.
According to him, Pakatan cannot afford to have MPs who go against reform.
“If you say the (amendment) of the law is wrong, that’s okay. But don’t lodge police reports as this is a form of intimidation,” he told a press conference.
The PKR supreme council member was responding to the police report filed by Zulkifli against PAS Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad for calling for the amendment of a Selangor religious enactment.
Zaid also warned that Pakatan’s image as a champion of democracy would be affected, if the coalition did not act against Zulkifli (right).
“If not ‘Middle Malaysia’ will ask what we stand for and our party will become a laughing stock. We are not Umno or Barisan Nasional,” he said.
