Staying within the guard rails. Reminding a PM. No 4. The political longevity of a PM.

1. Today again, I am writing on the subject of political longevity.

2. The longevity of the PM as PM. What are the main factors the PM must take cognizant of. 

3. The great lky mentioned 2 determinants. 

4. Keeping the faith of people in him as the man he says he is. A reformist 

5. Keeping the promises made. 

6. I tumpang 2 factors. He must have a team of like-minded people 

7. Which means these people must have the reformasi state of mind. 

8. He himself must have the unshakeable resolve and determination to carry out to topple the status quo. 

9. The first thing the PM must realise is that he didn't inherit power from UMNO. 

10. He got power through blood sweat and tears by how efforts and WITH help from loyal friends DAP and AMANAH. 

11. UMNO and others are fair weathered friends. You don't invite this kind of people to share power with you 

12. You are giving it time and space to regroup and plot. 

13. The PM must move quickly to show who's boss. There's a new sheriff in town with new terms 

14. He must move rapidly to consolidate his power. He must provide power to his trusted and tried allies. At the same time take every opportunity to weaken UMNO. 

14( b). Ignore the whiners on social media or from UMNO. Do what you must do. 

15. There's a recent opportunity to demonstrate you want to depart from the business as usual ways. 

16. The appointment of Hannah Yeoh as FT minister, signals you want change. 

17. You sir, are not asking permission and validation from the noise makers to make changes. 

18. These people from UMNO, pas , Malay supremacists, fringe groups crying over our dead bodies and people saying Malay interests are in danger and now, it's a mistake to give this position to a Chinese and DAP --ignore these nay sayers. 

19. You must now say the FT minister has your full confidence, support and trust. 

20. You sir, must tell the world, you are getting support and validation from Malaysians who are greater in number from the vocal nay sayers with vested, parochial and racist interests. 

21. The appointment of people like mat sabu, Dr Zulkifli, Hannah, Govind, nga, Steven, is bold 

22. Boldness makes people follow you. Hesitation and vacillation allow your enemies to regroup and people doubting you. 

23. If you act this way, people have faith in you as a reformist.
