| The man who seeks to return for the third time as Malaysia’s prime minister suffers from a trust deficit so large as to make him morally bankrupt in the eyes of Malaysians.
The pledges he made alongside the democratically-elected Pakatan Harapan he said he would lead, especially the oft-repeated plan to hand over the premiership to PKR leader Anwar Ibrahim, are nothing but water under the bridge. In the next few days, we may expect him to bring a perverse meaning to the words ‘unity government’, as he teams up with Bersatu - the party he chaired and quit the very day he resigned the prime ministership - PAS and Umno.
Where Umno is concerned, we will probably see Mahathir propose teaming with members of the very party that - trust him, he told us - had brought the country to the brink of collapse. We should not be surprised he is even more scornful of democratic processes and outcomes. The clearly expressed will of the people, the promised reform agenda, the pledge to administer as the leader of the Harapan government are nothing but encumbrances and petty inconveniences to his megalomania.
This is One (1) man view. Below views are more important and legitimate: 1. Parliament vote by MP 2. Snap poll by Rakyat is always keen to flog 1-man view as majority view, yet it's always failed.
