Surveys are like a bikini, what it reveals are suggestive, what it hides is vital. Devil's advocate series no 87.

1. In my opinion only, Anwar shouldn't be elated at being installed as the best liked person in Malaysia.

2. The ' installation' was carried out by a poll/survey done by Merdeka Centre

3. He got 52% vote followed by the man with the drunken mapillay looks with 50%

4. To be included in the company of people like DJ-KJ and wak47 is an insult

5. Luckily the survey is somewhat redeemed with the inclusion of Rafizi and Dr Sam Rasputin

6. To arrive at that preposterous outcomes, I'd be better off reading tea leaves, chicken entrails or reading sliced lime in a basin

7. Those who can't see what I see will be short aged or are children out of wedlock.

8. No need to employ mathematical analyses, statistical surveys or econometric calculations

9. As my stats professor used to say, stats is like a bikini. What it reveals are suggestive, what it hides is vital

10. What it hides, which is more important is the mental fortitude and mental resolve of the PM.

11. What it has revealed is the PMs childish exuberance at being adulated and given smarmy assessment.

12. The survey/poll is preposterous because it included the macha with the drunken looks

13. DJ-KJ lost in the previous election,is not an MP, does not hold any posts in a political group and yet comes out at 50%? Blimey by Jove!

14. WTF voted for him? Tipsy people at the bar? Lawyers debating heatedly at the counter of the bar at the Selangor clubhouse?

15. If it were I,I would be happier debating who gets to date amber chia, thanuja or the saucy Joanne kam or Seremban born Joyce Chu.

16. I am reminded of what Maggie Thatcher said, if you follow the polls, you are not practising leadership but followership

17. For God's sake, Mr PM sir, you are our leader! You don't dance to the song by kumpulan boria Tanjung!

18. Henry Kissinger said you shouldn't bother with the consequences of polls/surveys, you ought to be more concerned with the consequences of your actions.

19. Another astute politician said, the only results he is concerned with are the results voter make on election day.

20. Nearer to home, lee kuan yew drove home a telling point.

21. If you govern by polls, you are a blow with the wind leader. A weathervane fellow.

22. As a leader, you create a vision and then pursue it or them with resolute determination and doggedly

23. You don't wait and be imprisoned by validation and approval of the public

24. Certainly not by social media busybodies-men who just reach puberty and still visit Mrs Palmer and her 5 daughters. Plus bitchy ladies on perpetual heat

25. So Mr PM sir, don't be too mindful of the tune sung by kumpulan boria Tanjung Pinang.

26. Those who got 52%, 50% or 31% support, should be more concerned about cultivating as much support from the 48%,50% and 69% of those who disliked you.
