The errors of the PM part 1. Devil's advocate 55

1. I'll try to show where I think the PM has erred. Like I said many times I don't want him a one hit wonder. 

2. Even though I see him as a pasembur raconteur, pretending to be irascible at times, I see him also as the man who could pull Malaysia together. 

3. That's more than I can say of the nincompoops surrounding him 

4. And God have mercy on us, when he gets into constipation or child giving birth mode when speaking to us 

5. His 1st political mistake which could lead to a nasty fall, as I see it, is to bring UMNO into the fold of the unity government n. 

6. I detect a bit of impatience perhaps a bit of over enthusiasm , typical of a man who walks with gait of a trotting dog. 

7. In a flurry fast and furious. Also chiefly because I can't keep up with such energetic pace . 

8. With a little bit of patience and circumspect, Anwar could have discussed more on the subject of coalition partners with Sarawak and Sabah based parties and pliable individuals in Malaya. 

9. That would ostracize UMNO completely and keep it out of the corridors of power 

10. Which is what UMNO wants- power by any means necessary. Even if it has to prostitute itself. 

11. UMNO where got moral scruples one, it has only its interests to look after . 

12. Bringing UMNO into the fold of the unity government has allowed UMNO to spread it's wings-giving it a respiratory machine as it were . 

13. UMNO obtained ministerial and deputy ministerial posts and opportunities to place UMNO appointees in various GLCS. 

14. Especially in GLCs dealing with the Malay heartland. 

15. MARA, Felda, Fecra, Risda and others have UMNO appointees.

16. That's tantamount to giving UMNO chances to cultivate Malay support which is its power base . 

17. Isn't that like PH shooting itself in the foot? 

18. With time remaining for the next GE, revoke the appointment of UMNO appointees and downsize the number of UMNO ministerial positions. 

19. With that, announce that PH will contest all seats solo in N9,fat Albert state and Johor. 

20. In a few weeks, UMNO will have it's PAU . We will hear the normal bragodocious , big and fighting talks. 

21. Let's see after the revoke and downsize, UMNO can still talk big. 

22. Or it's just a paper tiger a shell of it's previous self. 

23. It can only cover its deficiencies with big talks. 

24. I have said this many times, it bores you, but it is a fatal mistake to invite the enemy to share political power with you.
