Losing the Malay vote: Comparison with Anwar is Najib's greatest fear

Embattled Prime Minister Najib Razak is underneath conflict from all fronts. Not usually is a many powerful 'warlord' in Umno - former premier Mahathir Mohamad - losing certainty in him to win a 13th ubiquitous election, even a smaller chieftains ! as well as a ashamed ones such as former Selangor arch apportion Khir Toyo have been publicly giving their dual cents value upon how to wand off Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim as well as his Pakatan Rakyat coalition.

For Najib - a clumsy as well as ungainly politician - a solution is simple. Bombard Anwar. It does not seem to have occurred to him which Pakatan has grown over what it was when it went in to a 2008 ubiquitous elections - a lax pact of 3 parties, namely PKR, PAS as well as DAP. Be which as it may, Najib's coherence upon media sensationalism as well as a untrustworthy organisation of bought-over politicians has reaped a little reward for a Pakatan, in which a tactic has boomeranged as well as whittled down Najib's credit even more.

Malaysians would choose Anwar

When Najib first took over as budding apportion in 2009 as well as promised reforms, Malaysians were optimistic as well as gave him a chance. But nearly 4 years have passed, as well as Najib has been proven to be a rascal - espousing lofty ideals in public though you do a opposite in reality. In a end, he is seen as little some-more than usually an additional weak Umno personality who needs to rely u! pon race as well as sacrament to stir up await for himself.

On this basis, it is no consternation which try as he will, a near nightly TV appearances by indeterminate people such Senator S Nallakauppan, Senator Ezam Mohd Nor, Ummi Hafilda as well as former MIC Youth personality N Gobalakrishnan have usually sparked doubt about his caliber as a budding minister. Nonetheless, carrying paid out hefty fees, plus handing out multiform Senatorships, Najib feels it is 'safer' to go upon with his "sex, sex, sex" discuss opposite Anwar. After all, it worked for Mahathir, so because not for him? But it usually 'worked' for Mahathir since he threw Anwar in to jail. Can Najib do a same to Anwar today? Will a domestic consequences be a same?

Conveniently, Najib also seems to have forgotten which a people have been able to think for themselves or which they competence consternation because is he pulling such an incredulous campaign? Why doesn't he usually take upon Anwar in a public discuss which a Opposition Leader has challenged him to over as well as over again?

The answers have been obvious, of course. Najib could never take upon Anwar as well as it is not usually to do with bombastic skills. A discuss would hint a really more aged which he is perplexing to avoid during all costs. Najib knows he is no match for a gifted Anwar. Even Mahathir picked Anwar over Najib to be his deputy budding apportion when Anwar was still in Umno.

Therefore, to concede Malaysians who will surely glue themselves to a TV for s! uch a de bate, as well as concede them - generally a Malays - a opportunity to evaluate as well as - horrors of horror - review a dual men, Najib competence as well throw in a towel straightaway.

Things have been not working out for Najib

At 58, Najib is in an ungainly position due mainly to his own incapacity to lead as well as to his inconclusive character. This is because ! mother R osmah Mansor has been so successful compared to a other wives of a prior premiers. As PKR Women's arch Zuraida Kamaruddin has pointed out, if Najib cannot carry out his mother - whose furious spending sprees have uneasy a man in a travel all a way up to Parliament - how can he be expected to carry out a nation.

Until now, he has unsuccessful to utter a squeak in response to a invitation from WikiLeaks owner Julian Assange to team up with refugee blogger Raja Petra as well as take upon Anwar in a moderated debate. By sheer comparison, Anwar agreed though fuss despite a unfairness of carrying to take upon Najib as well as Raja Petra in a two-versus-one.

Perhaps, Najib expected Anwar to be as aroused as he is as well as to withstand Assange. After all, dual versus a single is hardly fair. But Anwar upped a ante when he straight line said yes, arguing which paramount was to give a people a chance to assess as well as evaluate for themselves a state of their republic as well as to confirm who could improved run their republic - Pakatan or BN?

So to go upon to bombard Anwar upon a "sex, sex, sex" theme is 'safer', Najib reckons. There have been many reasons for him as well as his stay to reason they have been upon a right track. One factor is desperation.

Back to a wall

Najib is himself in a really vulnerable position right now, since so many issues as well as scandals have been coming together during him, all during a same time. He simply can't cope. Hence, a frequent overseas trips. Each time, a cabin doorway of a government's plush jet closes, Najib heaves a sigh of relief as well as wipes his cold as well as damp brow.

Everyone as well as everything seems to be closing in upon him as well as he has no answers. No even as to when a 13th ubiquitous choosing will be held. Initially a! Opposit ion was indicted of perplexing to pour out GE-13, though because would they when a electoral reforms they have been demanding have been nowhere ready?

No, a ones pier pressure upon Najib to have known a GE-13 date have been a Umno warlords themselves. The large ones similar to Mahathir as well as Daim can wait. Like a Opposition, they wish to win as well as if it takes an additional year when a BN's mandate officially expires in March 2013, so be it. But discuss it which to a smaller warlords, who can hardly wait for for to get their hands upon a supports which Najib will allocate to any multiplication to get their machine ready for polls. These guys have been baying similar to werewolves for a money, as well as in Umno tradition, a single can safely design which 90% will be siphoned over to their own accounts. Yes, a majority of Umno warlords wish their 'ringgit' as well as now!

Malaysians dismay an additional 5 years underneath Najib as well as Rosmah

As for Najib as well as Rosmah, they would prefer to forever reason upon to Putrajaya, a official Seri Perdana residence, a overseas trips upon taxpayers' expense, a armed forces of flunkies during their beck as well as call as well as so forth. In fact, their ideal would be - no ubiquitous choosing during all, period!

But for a people, it is clear their calm has run out. The latest Christianization hazard unsuccessful to stir a ruckus which similar episodes in a past had. This time, a Christians were not bashful to lash out as well as though pulling punches. However, a rest of Malaysia watched with a weary eye.

Uppermost upon their minds were a thoughts which if Najib was to be re-elected, they would have to live with an additional 5 years of such time-wasting rule. Can they bear an additional 5 years of Najib as well as Rosmah, an additional 5 years of manipulation as well as backseat driving by Mahathir as well as Daim! , an add itional 5 years of crime as well as unlawful outf! lows?

This is what Najib should face up to. These have been a questions which have been using by a people minds. But he does not feel a beat of a nation. He never has.

Recent flops

Look during a Felda Global Ventures Holdings listing he is hammering by in June. It is unpopular to a large number of a Felda settlers though Najib usually chooses to hear a calls of await from those who wish it.

Same goes for a MAS-AirAsia share swap deal, which was condemned as well as heavily protested by MAS staff. Did Najib listen? But right divided which a national carrier has posted even misfortune results after a swap, he is perplexing to inveigle a MAS staff, a large proportion of whom have been Malays as well as might opinion for a Pakatan out of disgust if h! e doesn' t take notice of their complaints. But usually similar to everyone else in Malaysia, MAS staff will shortly find out which Najib doesn't mean what he says. The PM usually intends to cluck his tongue as well as express a little sympathy though until a understanding is reversed, MAS staff should not reason their breath.

Another large wave was a My First House intrigue which Najib was pinning his hopes upon to win a votes of a immature professionals, who had suddenly found themselves incompetent to buy skill due to runaway prices which he - as Finance apportion - unsuccessful to do anything about or to try as well as control. It was usually last week which a executive Bank Negara eventually voiced measures to recover a pressure valve in a skill marketplace by creation it tougher to steal as well as assume upon real estate prices.

So, no, Najib did zero to redeem himself as Finance minister. If he had, he could still have a little legacy. But a manage to buy was often low to negligenc! e during a past 4 years, as well as relocating upon auto-pilot. The gears have right divided shifted up a nick for a major slack as past warnings of a ! tellurian s queeze begin to filter in to a local economy. With a Opposition hyperactive as well as not missing anything, Najib is no longer able to plunder from a cash-rich Employee Provident Fund as his predecessors used to. This equates to Umno will no longer be able to pass a buck from a left palm to a right palm as well as afterwards fake which a republic has progressed when a movement was merely lateral as well as not brazen during all.

Hence, sensationalism as well as "sex, sex, sex" to obstruct a Malays

So, no consternation Najib needs "sex, sex, sex" opposite Anwar. He has to have use of sensationalism to constraint a Malays' interest, similar to a poverty-stricken in India rely upon Bollywood for respite opposite their harsh daily lives.

Malaysians as well as Christians contingency beware as well as brace for new onslaughts from a likes of nonconformist groups Perkasa as well as Hasan Ali's Jati. In fact, upon Monday, Hasan will eventually be revealing a much-awaited video, which he claims proves which Christians have been starting all out to convert Muslims in Malaysia.

On a racial front, education is expected to be used as an additional tool of diversion to get a Malays upset as well as aroused of a Chinese. The May 13, 1969 racial riots will again be used to frighten a Chinese in to acquiescence as well as it is no collision which Najib programmed a Umno 66th anniversary celebration to finish upon May 13, where he is expected to have a 'special' speech.

To Najib, it is a matter of life as well as death to keep knocking down Anwar. Why? He cannot means to concede a Malays to focus upon a being as well as come to a fulfilment which Anw! ar is re ally a single of a many gifted Malay leaders of recent times. There is a huge disproportion in their domestic styles, culture, education as well as economic programs.

In economics, Najib goes for a alphabet soup programs of GTP, ETP, EPP as well as so on. Anw! ar, opinion d most appropriate Finance apportion by an international magazine, prior to Mahathir locked up him has stranded to his guns. It is elementary for a 64-year-old Anwar. Just stick to priority for a prior, distribution of wealth as well as goodies upon a basement of needs, keep a republic open as well as have sure Malaysia is clean as well as transparently administered. The rest will tumble in. Ii does crop up simplistic compared to Najib's glitzy acronyms. But as economist indicate out, a essentials contingency be put in place first as well as foremost.

Malays already wising up

Can Najib as well as Umno ever means to stop smearing Anwar? Already a Malays - a core electorate - have been starting to review Anwar with Najib, Umno with Pakatan. Indeed, it is really easy for a Malays to swing to Anwar's side. He used to be a heavenly of their community until Mahathir hatched a Sodomy we swindling opposite him. Even then, Mahathir had to renounce as well as Umno was separate down a line.

After Anwar was acquitted as well as decided to return to active politics, Najib knew he had to keep pitter-patter up sexual accusations opposite Anwar to keep a seeds of doubts alive. Hence, Nalla, Ezam, Ummi as well as not to discuss a Datuk T trio. But Najib is foolish. Or maybe he usually doesn't wish! to admi t which his devise - his a single as well as usually superfluous bullet - is not working. Look during a Datuk T sex video which was played out daily in a mainstream newspapers as well as upon TV. What did it do for Najib except consolidate a ! picture which he as well as Umno know zero though "sex, sex, sex".

If Najib is smart, he would notice a hearten which was raised all around a republic as well as a world when Anwar was found not guilty of Sodomy II. And be afraid, really afraid.

Najib is a self-evident child who cried wolf. From Saiful Bukhari Azlan, a Sodomy II complainant, to a Datuk T trio as well as thence to a Nalla-Ezam-Ummi group, his passageway for liquid strategies have unsuccessful as well as will go upon to explode - eating divided during his own credibility.The great thing for Anwar as well as a Pakatan is which Najib is as well ridiculous to even comprehend it.
