Netto comments upon a Mansor Matter
by Terence Netto@www.malaysiakini.com
COMMENT: Next time there is a PKR assembly upon strategising for a ubiquitous election, attendees will have to be electronically vetted for recording devices. Otherwise what a little participants might contend about various others from a Pakatan Rakyat companionship might wend a approach in to blogs as great as means a lot of red faces as a consequence.
Then what a French reflective thinker Blaise Pascal hold to be a adage about interpersonal relations "I lay it down as a fact that if all organisation knew what others contend about them, there would not be 4 friends in a world" would be reliable as indisputable truth.
Later this morning during a press discussion in Komtar, Deputy Chief Minister Dato' Mansor Othman, a PKR State Chief, in a presence of DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng, would in all probability try to disavow disparaging remarks he reportedly made about a Penang Chief Minister during a celebration strategy assembly in March.
A recording of a remarks was uploaded in Jun upon an obscure website (there is an anarchic plethora of them these days even dedicated netizens find it formidable to keep track) where a potentially embarrassing stuff lay, similar to a predator undetected between a prey, until discontented elements in PKR called attention to it and, as a result, have right away succeeded in causing a outcry that Mansor, with assistance from Lim, would have to onslaught to tamp down.
How most is this highly avoidable situation due to governing body which, even durin! g a slig htest deplorable, is use to mistreat as great as how most due to a cussedness of human inlet opposite that even a prevision of electronic safeguards would not be enough insulation is a question?
Who did it?
To strip a convoluted story to a bare as great as motive comprehending essentials, a single has to go behind to a strategy assembly between Chinese leaders in Penang PKR as great as Dato' Mansor that was hold in March.
One of a attendees was a chairman already nursing a grievance opposite a DCM1 that led him to secretly record what was pronounced during a assembly upon fasten as great as keep it for vital deployment later.
Part of a reason for land a assembly was to allay a fears of a Chinese leaders in PKR that should Sim Tze Tzin (right), PKR state assemblyman from a Chinese-majority chair of Pantai Jerejak, be chosen to competition a parliamentary subdivision of Bayan Baru, assigned by Zahrain Mohd Hashim who defected to a independent benches, Sim's chair would not be given, as bruited about, to a PKR Malay to contest.
Chinese PKR leaders, sensitive to a DAP Chinese notice of them as unduly debasing to Malays, would be great to perspective a PKR decision to concede a Malay to competition in Pantai Jerejak as fodder for a derogatory perspective of them hold by their counterparts in a DAP.
At a meeting, Dato' Mansor had to wrestle with these perceptions, that maybe were what led to a desire to overcompensate by taking PKR frustrations out upon Lim in front of a organisation of people who see a Penang Chief Minister as a epitome of what they be vexed in a DAP racial chauvinism.
When in Jun a list of PKR candidates for a election was finalised, a single or dual incumbent legislators found that their n! ames wer e excluded. It is speculated that a excluded, apprised of a life of a tape, sought to discharge their rancour during being dropped by persuading a tape deck to upload a element upon a little great known blog (they did not go to a stridently anti-Lim Guan Eng blogs since they feared exposing their identities) where it lay unheralded until an additional of PKR's malcontents motionless to post a flaming red summons upon it.
This led to a tape's entry in to a glare of media broadside where something that was potentially bothersome but implicit is magnified in to a full-blown controversy.
Mansor might not continue as DCM
The upshot is this morning's press discussion where Mansor would have to go through a motions of disavowal as great as contrition as great as Lim would play a role of magnanimous skipper of a Pakatan ship of state by accepting a invitation as great as hinting that all's great that publicly comports to be well.
The idealisation outcome would be that after a ubiquitous elections, Mansor cannot be Deputy Chief Minister since that would constitute an unwarranted aspersion to a DAP. This would roughly positively mean that he will be tapped for a parliamentary subdivision of Nibong Tebal, assigned by Tan Tee Beng, formerly, similar to Zahrain, of PKR as great as right away of a BN-supporting independent organisation in a Lower House.
Come to consider of it, this would be a great finish to a whole embarrassing mistake since Dato' Mansor, great male though, is not a leader.
He is a great engine room man, clever upon research as great as backing up a front pack, that was what he was when he was an educational in Universiti Sains Malaysia where he did great work for Anwar Ibrahim, that prompted a lat! ter to h ave him his domestic secretary in a final years before Dr Mahathir Mohamad executed his decapitation in 1998 that was a trigger to all that is function today.
Talk of unintended consequences, governing body is rife with it not all of which, mercifully, is bad.
