Mahathir says Najib is a weak leader

Look East Pilgrims!

There must be something terribly wrong with popular ratings made on Najib. The polls say he has a popular rating of 60-65%. If you ask people in the street, most of them could not give a rat’s ass about Najib. If he is so popular and much loved, why was the number of Malaysian Indians celebrating his Ponggol event so dismal?

Because the Malaysian Indians haven’t recovered from the greatest insult Najib dished out to them when handlers were just throwing hampers and rice to the outstretched hands of Malaysian Indians. That was a pitiful site. This is not Zimbabwe or one of the African countries. 
It must be heart-warming to aristocratic and bourgeois Najib to see many of the wretched of the earth scrambling over one another affirming his own pedigreed background. All those ‘I am one of the people’ antics, face booking, twitterings, eating daun pisang, walking around in Petaling Street, busy-bodying in Pasar Khadijah Kota Bharu- everyone knows are all publicity BS. People can see through the hypocrisy.

The majority of Malaysian Indians are so caught up in the beggar mentality that they forgot the insult and humiliation Najib treats them with. Will they still want to give Najib their nambikei? Don’t!

So how come he has a rating of 60%? The population sample has never read newspapers or what? Or is the population sample made up of the deejay I was listening to one day, who pronounced George Town as Jorjee Town? Which school did she go to? RTM employ mental retards or what?

Now the man who can walk on water has said it again. Najib is a weak leader. Because Mahathir can and because Najib is. The usual Najib way of dealing with accusations is to keep silent hoping that silence and maintaining stoical disdain will make all these nasty things go away. His minders and all the UMNO paid bloggers including those who affectionately call the PM’s missus- kak Rose will hail Najib’s actions as that belonging to a great man or even, God forbid, statesman-like.

To which we will say- but of course, Deepak also refers Rosmah as Kak Rose.  

These nasty issues will not go away. Deepakgate has made people become entrenched in their thinking that these two people have something to do with the Alantuya murder. They won’t until you take an iron fist approach the legal way. A nobody like Deepak can besmirch the position of our PM and damage the reputation of Najib and the missus in their personal capacities and all they did, was to respond in a weakly and enfeebled manner. “Deepak cannot be trusted and I swear I do not own such a ring”.  The people are not all impressed and indeed are even more convinced that you have so many things to hide. The UMNO people know all this. But they are polite enough not to tell Najib in his face or will try to save him by laying all the blame with Rosmah.

I have said it a long time ago- Najib is a political invertebrate. If he were a Lee Kuan Yew or Hsien Loong or Chok Tong, the people who make allegations will be hauled to court. But then the court is the last place Najib and Rosmah want to be. Because then everything will have to be said in the open unless the DPPs prosecuting are dumb asses or the judge one of the candidates I propose to have cashiered once PR comes to power.  As an aside, I say this again- in order to restore our judiciary, all we need to do is to pension off most of the senior judges.

Najib with all the skeletons in the carpet has compromised the office of the PM right from day one. Many UMNO member and leaders know Najib is one bloody hypocrite. In the past he has given advice to so many UMNO second liners to rein in their wives but when it comes to him, he is a hopeless case. He is an ow-ow PM just like his not so intelligent cousin.

Why has Mahathir come out so many times to say Najib is a weak leader? Less in the open, but in private, I am told, so many times. Mahathir refers to Rosmah as that woman. Others catching on to what Mahathir say, that evil woman with the insatiable lust to swallow up any business deals. Deals that will make Imelda Marcos looked a dwarf standing beside her not so tall structure.

Because Mahathir knows Najib has so many things to hide. All his indiscretions, business deals and so forth. Or maybe Mahathir knows, Najib has accumulated more money than Mahathir could ever did.

Apart from Isa Samad and Rahim Tamby Chik who Najib fears, the man he fears most is Mahathir. Because the old man knows who the real Najib is from the day Najib abandoned and did a Judas to Tengku Razaleigh when Razaleigh was fighting Mahathir for the UMNO presidency. He had Najib in his palms.

Mahathir decides who can hold office and not Najib. The only reason why Khairy Jamaluddin does not hold office is because Mahathir does not allow Najib to appoint KJ. If the Pemdua UMNO has got any semblance of amour-propre they would have pressured Najib to appoint their leader. The leader of UMNO’s girl scouts is a deputy minister. The deputy of Pemuda UMNO holds an office. The leader of UMNO’s Auntie’s Club was a minister until she was caught out by the NFC scandal. And the man KJ vanquished for the post of Youth Leader is made a minister.

And still people insist that Najib is visionary! The visionary is asking Mahathir for a lifeline.
