Najib's violation of any agreement is expected.

The revelation by Yusuf Kalla one time deputy president of Indonesia, has produced not a few rushed judgements. For those who have in-built prejudices against Anwar will recall that Anwar is such and such a fellow. Most of these perceptions were formed a long time ago and some formed after one or two encounters.

I have met Anwar only once in person and that was last year when he was already entrenched in the role as opposition leader. I wasn’t interested to form a personalised perception of Anwar preferring to judge and assess him on his thinking, ideas and articulation. His darker side if it exists is none of my concern. I am never a fan of Anwar but am no Anwar hater either, but as I have said if more people believed in him that those who don’t, there is nothing anyone can do about it. As it is, more people like Anwar than Najib and that is why PR got 51% of the popular votes. That translates into nearly 500,000 human beings rejecting Najib.

 As I have also said before, in the context of sexual dalliances, the person he is compared with is just as heroic as he is. That, if we believe all those insinuations about Anwar are true. If they were, then they were equally true about poster boy Najib.

Did such an agreement exist? If it does, then it’s incumbent upon Yusuf Kalla to produce the agreement that he has brokered. And reveal to us, what is it that Anwar reneged on. Was Anwar’s agreement insured against Najib’s promise not to cheat in the GE?

That is a more serious matter we should be looking into. We haven’t gone before that courts and tribunals or what  and those who have no inkling about the mechanics on voting on the ground other than dragging one’s own fat carcass to the voting station and marking x on your preferred spot, pontificating to us. stop lecturing us and demanding where’s the proof. It’s not too for Khairy the thoroughbred asked to pull the milk cart,  to say there isn’t any shred of evidence to proof fraud and cheating in the elections. We bring it before the courts and let the impartial courts decide on it. Do a smudge and a slightly blotted paper render the vote spoilt when during the first round it was accepted? The recount if it was done- was it done by collating the figures off the Form 14s? Was the recount done by opening up all the boxes at the counting stations? I didn’t hear of counting done at any of the pusat pengistiharan undi.

So what was the basis of Anwar’s failure to honour the so called agreement between him and Najib?

Why is it that it’s easy for us to rush judgment on Anwar on the basis of our personalised perceptions of him. Why not wait until details of such agreement are revealed.

What about Najib? I can easily come up with a laundry list on why we can’t even trust this hypocrite. I am as qualified to give a personalised perception of Najib just like those who have had fleeting associations with Anwar can.

So let’s see details of the agreement. Let’s not hear what Yusuf Kalla has to say. Let’s hear what both Najib and Anwar have to say about their so called agreement. Did Najib promise Anwar than BN will not cheat? Such a promise, if it comes out from Najib is like believing a camel and go through a needle hole.
