YOURSAY | 'Mahathir knows very well that the proposal for Shafie to be PM will only divide Malaysia.'

Let us leave Anwar Ibrahim aside and see who the real Shafie Apdal is - he is but a shadow of former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Mahathirism, and I have this lingering doubt that this is all but an exercise by a father to make his son the PM and continue with this Mahathirism that had damaged almost everything he had touched.

They are all not even worth mentioning - and who doesn't have the slightest hesitation to play partisan and opportunistic politics? It has to be someone in the make of the late Sarawak chief minister Adenan Satem. You suggest, Netto, that the Members of Parliament from Sabah and Sarawak cannot look askance, implying that they would rise to the cause. Yet, are Borneo’s noble 57 all men of honour? Unfailingly, they have revealed themselves to be most adroit at dancing gleefully for whoever pays more.I would argue with you, sir, that the shattering of myth is counter-productive.

This perhaps explains why DAP and Amanah have decided to back Shafie as PM. This is the only way to bring down Perikatan Nasional . They are obviously doing it for self-interest reasons, after having tasted the glorious trappings of power and are now feeling the pinch in opposition. Sabah and Sarawak have always been treated with disdain and contempt by the federal ministers. The only interests they have are the East Malaysian seats and assets that they milk from the two states.
