1. Najib says Pakatan Harapan will be squabbling over who should be the Prime Minister if it wins. He seems to think that the four parties in the coalition cannot work together.

2. If he thinks so, why is he so afraid to register Pakatan Harapan, the coalition of the four opposition parties. Application for registration by PH has not been answered. He knows very well time is of the essence. The coalition has to use the same symbol in the ballot papers. It is important for the symbol to be well-known to the voters. BN’s and PAS symbols are well-known, having been around for more than half a century. Voters would not know the PH symbol unless it is promoted a long time before voting day.

3. On the other hand if the coalition is rejected now the four parties would be able to promote the alternative symbol they would use. Not knowing whether the coalition and it’s symbol would be approved or not puts the four parties in a quandary. They need to produce flags and banners etc, in their own names and symbols. If at the last moment the coalition is approved, much money would have been wasted. More money would have to be spent on producing common flags and buntings with the coalition symbols.

1. Tidak pernah dalam sejarah Malaysia yang begitu ramai orang berada dalam ketakutan. Di zaman Jepun pun kita tidak berasa begitu takut.

2. Tetapi sekarang perasaan takut ini dirasai oleh ramai pegawai dan kakitangan Kerajaan, peniaga kecil dan besar dan orang biasa.

3. Apakah yang ditakuti oleh mereka. Mereka takut Najib. Pegawai dan kakitangan Kerajaan takut mengatakan yang benar kerana takut jika tidak disukai oleh Najib. Mereka takut mereka didera oleh Najib. Mereka takut dibuang kerja. Mereka takut diturun pangkat atau ditukar ke jawatan lain. Mereka takut apabila bersara tidak ada peluang jadi pengarah dalam syarikat Kerajaan.

1. Najib must know the whole country is against him. His chances of winning the 14th G.E. are almost nil.2. He also knows the direct consequences for him if he loses. He would be charged in court and he may find himself in jail.

3. Knowing all these, he must make sure he would not lose. By hook and most certainly by crook he must win.

4. One of the things he is likely to do if he loses by a small margin is to declare a state of emergency and to suspend parliament. He would set up a Mageran type of Government and rule the country by decree.

5. To do this he will need the support of mainly the army chief and the police chief.

6. When Marcos was ruling the Philippines as a dictator, he had the support of army and police chiefs. But when he caused Aquino to be assassinated, the chiefs withdrew their support. With that the people took to the streets and demanded the removal of Marcos as President. The people power movement was successful because Marcos had lost the support of the chiefs.

7. In Malaysia currently the Inspector General of Police and Chief of the armed forces are supporters of the Prime Minister or at least are compliant to what he does. Even when he clearly breaks the law they appear not to be concerned.

8. Najib’s misrule is far more serious than Marcos. There is clear evidence that he has stolen Government money. In the eyes of the world his abuse of power is acknowledged. Najib’s Malaysia is described as a kleptocracy, not a democracy any more. The rule of law is blatantly ignored by Najib. Corruption by him is rampant.

9. The question is whether the support would continue if he seizes power following the election. At this moment the people believe the possibility is real, very real. Only an overwhelming victory of the opposition will prevent this.

10. If Najib wins the consequences would be terrible. This country will become bankrupt as total debt now is almost one trillion Ringgit. Najib has been selling chunks of Malaysia in order to pay debts. All the best land have been sold. There will come a time when he would not be able to raise money to pay debts. When that time comes, Malaysia would become a bankrupt country.

1. Terkejut saya apabila diberitahu pemilihan dalam PRU 14 ini tidak lebih dari pemilihan antara Pepsi Cola dengan Coca Cola. Oleh itu apa perlunya kita mengundi.

2. Begitu rendahkah kebolehan kita berfikir dan membuat bandingan? Jika ditanya antara Proton dengan Rolls Royce, yang mana satu yang nak dipilih? Mana-mana sahajalah. Apa bezanya antara Proton dengan Rolls Royce. Kedua-duanya kereta bermotor, tak lebih dari itu.

3. Keputusan yang dibuat ialah untuk tidak membeli Proton atau Rolls Royce. Kereta bermotor boleh terlibat dengan kemalangan. Adalah lebih baik berjalan kaki.

1. People and the media never fail to point out that I was a dictator. I presided over an authoritarian Government of Malaysia for 22 years. Any mention of my name must be preceded or followed with the qualification “dictator”.

2. Looking back now, I realise why, as Prime Minister of Malaysia I was described as a dictator. There were many things I did which were typically dictatorial.

3. Actually I showed this tendency very early. Upon being appointed as Minister of Education, the first command I made was for the “Menteri” plate above the number plate of my official car to be ripped off. Maybe I feared assassination. I don’t know. But, unlike other democratic ministers I did not have the “Menteri” plate on my car.
