Mahathir still have the chance to restore his statesmanship

Najib is attempting his best shot to maintain at his current position in the party and the government. He is hectic these few weeks and months soliciting support from his own party leaders as there were quite clear indications that he would be toppled by his own colleagues in the party. He is preparing to defend himself from being challenged by his colleague as the party president. He is also in defense of his position as the Prime Minister as pressure for him to quit is becoming more exerting. 

The sitting PM is facing fierce pressure from numerous organizations including some from UMNO that he is in need to retire as he is doomed to be the most irresponsible and detested PM in all time history of this country. The most disturbing person to Najib was his former mentor Dr Mahathir Mohammed. Dr Mahathir on the hand has the moral right to pull him down as he was the one who paved the way for Najib to ascend the undeserving positions as Prime Minister and the party president.

Najib should be more thankful to Dr Mahathir as it was the weakness of Dr Mahathir that Najib expediently took advantage to successfully holding lofty position. By his admission Mahathir has the strong tendency to choose wrong persons to lead the country and the worst of them all was Najib Razak. However there is an easy answer as to why Dr Mahathir had made recurring mistakes in his choices.

Mahathir had always put his personal preferences ahead of what the country’s leadership essentials.  Both Abdullah Badawi and Najib were weak personalities he props up to be leaders whom he (Mahathir) thinks would be grateful to him in return for the positions they earned undeservingly. Mahathir should now realize that choosing the undeserving persons to lead will be ungainly to the nation and to him personally.

In effect Mahathir will be read by history as the leader who underwrote to the destruction of the nation by propping up contemptible and unworthy leaders to inherit his leadership. That history will stay forever and will be read by generations after generations. Mahathir does not have the privilege of time as his age is fast catching up.

He won’t have the age of Prophet Noah who lived for 950 years to see and mend all the destructive consequences of leaderships of his mold as I have recurrently mentioned in my writings. It must be conclusively confessed that Muhyiddin and the rest of the leaders in the Supreme Council are all leaders who are within the mold that Mahathir has developed for more than two decades of time. Replacing Najib with anyone of them is no change.

I believe Mahathir still has the chance to restore his appearance as a statesman and a leader who was truly magnanimous to work out for the Malaysians while he is still living. Mahathir should realize that he has been circled by too many 'Abdullah bin Ubai' that have put him in perpetual unhappiness.

Saudara AA

If Najib is replaced by Muhyiddin or any other member currently in the UMNO Supreme Council, the nation will still suffer as it now does because it is stuck in a rut.

Hence, the only way for Mahathir to atone himself from his past blunders of anointing failed leaders is to endorse Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah as the PM in-waiting. Mahathir owes that much to TRH indeed.

Tuan, saya masih menunggu tuan mengulasnya dlm bahasa ibunda. Walaupun saya juga memahami tulisan tuan dlm bahasa inggeris. Tapi saya lebih suka membacanya dlm bahasa melayu. Gaya tuan mirip dgn gaya bahasa Hamka. Mungkin kerana tuan dan beliau sama2 dari minangkabau agaknya.
terima kasih.

Dear Aspan Alias,

First of all, what kind of MOLD you talking about? The system has been in place since UMNO inception 1946. All UMNO past leaders, except Tun Razak, stepped down. Those past leaders are the one emerged from the fire of Perjuangan, were born in pre independent. Unlike nowadays, UMNO leaders do not have that trait anymore, they are more self centred for personal gain, not the country, religion or its people they representing. This is what Dr M means by Melayu Mudah Lupa.

To me Dr M thinking is just for country, its people and his religion, he aspire for his successor to be grateful to him. He has the option to remain silence, spending the rest remaining life for personal matter, like what Pak Lah did currently - but he chose not, why? He even willing to burn the bridge, why?

Tuan AA. Guna bahasa ibunda lebih mudah dfaham oleh kebanyakan rakyat dan mampu mencapai matlamat mendidik mereka cara berfikir dan berpolitik cara yg betul. Input yg tuan berikan amat berguna untuk mengajak mereka supaya berfikiran kritis dan rational dalam berpolitik demi masa depan negara kita yang tercinta.

Posting admin dalam bahasa inggeris, biasanya menggunakan gaya bahasa yang bermutu, dan ditambah pula dengan beberapa perbendaharaan kata yang mungkin baru kepada beberapa pembaca termasuklah diri saya sendiri. Saya akui yang saya ini dulu amat membenci bahasa inggeris baik dari sudut percakapan mahupun penulisan. Dengan memaksa diri membaca tulisan dalam bahasa inggeris sama ada dalam blog, akhbar dan sebagainya ia sedikit demi sedikit telah menambah kefahaman tentang lenggok penggunaannya, walaupun kesalahan menulis dan menuturnya tetap ada tetapi ia menjadikan seseorang itu lebih mahir dalam bahasa inggeris serta menerbitkan rasa keyakinan diri semasa menggunakannya. Kepada rakan-rakan semua, jika hendak memberikan komen dalam bahasa inggeris rasanya tidak salah menggunakan 'broken language' dari situ ia akan 'improve' kemahiran kita berbahasa inggeris. Tetapi jika hendak memberikan komen dalam bahasa melayu, nampaknya komen sebegitu tetap juga disiarkan oleh admin. Anak jati orang inggeris pun tidak dilahirkan terus pandai berbahasa inggeris, ianya adalah hakikat. Akhir sekali, ulasan saya ini tidaklah bertujuan untuk membela admin dan bukan juga untuk mengagungkan bahasa penjajah serta tidak merasa pun diri sebagai hamba bila berbahasa inggeris.
