Mahathir in full control, Anwar’s chances to become PM now remote: Analysts

KUALA LUMPUR: As Malaysia’s political landscape descended into uncertainty on Monday , the man at the centre of it all was largely silent., triggering a chain reaction of parties quitting the Pakatan Harapan coalition and cabinet ministers being relieved of their duties, he never elaborated on his decision.The string of events has triggered uncertainty in many quarters.

Dr Mahathir Mohamad posted this photo on Facebook on Feb 25, 2020, a day after he resigned as prime minister and was appointed as interim prime minister. "Just another day in the office," the caption read. He said Dr Mahathir had agreed to the PH succession pact to hand over the premiership to Mr Anwar before the May 2018 polls because he needed the help of PKR, Democratic Action Party and Parti Amanah Negara to overthrow former prime minister Najib Razak and his Barisan Nasional coalition.

Prof Chin said the bitter history between Dr Mahathir and Mr Anwar suggested that the succession would never have happened between them. Mr Anwar was Dr Mahathir's deputy prime minister during the latter's first term in office, until he was sacked in 1998 and jailed later on what he said were trumped-up charges of corruption and sodomy.

Don't think he ever will. However, most important is to give power to choose to rakyat which is the first and only goal. RAKYAT get EVEN don't get upset. VOTE these people out the next round so they will no longer cause harm to Malaysia.

CNA spread fake news?

The King do not trust Anwar who have high hopes to be the next prime minister.

And who knows what this old snake is planning? Act innocent but is he really? Hmmm

It is true. Those who think Anwar still have a chance is simply naive.
