Badawi Resigns, Najib Takes Over
“Why Badawi did not want to meet with Anwar?” This is not a million dollar question.
Badawi has been saying that Anwar doesn’t have the numbers. That he is a liar, who is trying to deceive the people. It’s just a mirage and a dream. Is it?
Why then did he refuse to entertain Anwar? Isn’t it an opportunity to dispute Anwar’s claim that he has the numbers once and for all? This is an opportunity to put Anwar to shame and prove himself right that Anwar is a liar. So why didn’t he not grab it? After all he is so convinced that there will be no crossover and all the talks are preposterous.
In fact, by refusing to meet Anwar to discuss the issues, he has convinced the world that Anwar do have the numbers.
Ok, I have another theory. It might sound far out, but hey…, this is politics! Anything is possible in politics.
You see, Badawi is not as bodoh as most of us think he is. Or is he? Anyway, the reason he refuses to meet Anwar is because he knows Anwar has the numbers, as we all agreed. But then that’s not all. Since he knows Anwar got the numbers and he knows that after meeting Anwar he has no choice but to turn over the reign to him. He will then have to go down in history as the first Prime Minister to be kicked out while in office. Malu lol!
So what he did was to give the Finance post to Najib and reassured him of the agreed transition of power. And at the same time he knows that grassroots has been demanding for him to pass the baton to Najib sooner than later and before 9th Oct. With this excuse, he will then resign before the next sitting. And when parliament resumes, Anwar will debate on the issue, produce the numbers and claim the majority. And who will get kicked out of the office? Najib! Yep, he will then go down in history as the shortest reigning PM. That’s my bizarre theory. Logical?
Oh, by the way, I need to mention this. A friend told me that in Badawi’s world, 2 years is 2 months. He is not very good with numbers, not like Anwar who is got the numbers. That’s the reason he swapped the finance post with Najib.
When he said that he will hand over the reign to Najib in 2010, he forgot to put the dot or slash after the 20. What he really meant was 20.10! That’s why the last couple of days he said that the 2010 power transition pact is “flexible” and that he might quit sooner. What he was hinting that he could leave earlier than 20.10 (20th Oct!), not the year 2010. So now we could expect him to resign before the 9th Oct as demanded by several of his senior members in the Umno supreme council. This will save him face, lol! And he can retire peacefully in Perth!

Pak Lah is smart and very sly. He is not going to give up the PM to Najib while under pressure. It is a known fact he does not like Najib and only tolerates him . He chose Najib as a DPM because he has dirt on Najib. Do not spend too much time reading into PaK Lah but watch Khairy\’s wheeling and dealing with Anwar. Khairy is throwing the support behind Anwar and to stay relevant. He will not show his hand but have his people support Anwar. In the mean time as soon as Umno is out of power he will consolidate his power in UMNO by instigating a witch hunt. Najib and the others who plotted against Pak Lah will be surrendered to Anwar with evidence to prosecute them in court. These senior UMNO plotters when convicted and will be bar from political office. He will rebuild UMNO and will have UMNO allied with PR has a strategic partner. MCA/MIC/Gerakan and other BN parties will be left high and dry if by this time they have not gone over to PR. Khairy knows once he has made UMNO strong and he can bid for power in PR as a strategic partner. This is the only way for Khairy to survive. Do not write off Khairy. Read the Anwar\’s PR statements that the BN MPs do not necessary need to cross over to support the PR government. This way Khairy keeps UMNO intact and mold into a progressive party in the mold of PKR. UMNO will remain a Bumiputra party but the UMNO constitution will be change to bar racial politics and statements by UMNO members. In 2 or 3 years Khairy will made a bid for PM with the blessing of PR.He will prove that UMNO without the racist will be an asset to PR and the people.
Pak Lah in next few days is going to get the King to call Anwar to show prove that he has the backing of the majority of the MPs. What Pak Lah is saying in the media is a wayang kulit to keep his enemies in UMNO off balance. This is the only way to say his legacy and history will judge him as a man who place the country before himself.
The story or you can call the script continues as I left it with the parting words “More to Come”
As the days get neared to the suppose target day, the haze suddenly stars to clear as the plot / script becomes clearer.
Anwar Ibrahim as say very famously “why wouldn’t Abdullah Badawi want to meet me, He is my friend”. This statement is to assure Abdullah Badawai the he Anwar has not ditched the plan agreed by both of them.
Abdullah Badawi when he says something but means the opposite. He says no Emergency session of Parliament is planed but what he is try to say is that there will be a emergency session of Parliament in the next few days. Abdullah knows that for UMNO to survive, it has to be reformed, getting rid of the self serving UMNO warlords and be in the opposition and reflect on it self. When UMNO is in the opposition, it will be easy to rid the party of the Warlords. Simple reason is to hand them over to the PR government with evidence for prosecution.
Khairy is the Middle and point man between Anwar and Abdullah. Remember when he returned Anwar’s passport personally to Anwar on his release from prison. Khairy knows if he wants to succeed, he must get rid of the obstacles in UMNO. Down the line after 2 to 3 years UMNO in the opposition, UMNO been reformed will be invited by PR to be a partner. Anwar will be PM for another 9 years and when he reaches 70, Khairy will be the PM by virtue of the largest party in PR. These 9 years Khairy will work to polish his image and the public will be grateful that he was instrumental in placing Anwar in power and getting rid of racial politics. He will prove to be an even better PM that Anwar.
Najib, ooh Poor Najib. He has already got a smell on the plot (But too late) and had to call of his visit to the Middle East. Najib knows that Anwar with Abdullah’s backing have sent the letter to the King to seek an audience with the King. Najib is trying to foil the plan. Once Anwar has the audience, Abdullah will have Parliament in session. Najib is no longer the Defense Minister (Abdullah’s master stoke) and can not call on the Armed Forces to effect a coup d-eta. Najib is working hard now to marshal the BN MPs and trying to prevent the defections. All is lost now for Najib. It is too late for him as he has already been checkmate by Khairy. Najib must be wondering about his fate either in exile, prison or in the hangman’s noose.
Syed Hamid has played the dumb Interior minister to the hilt and deserves an Oscar. He has as per plan made UMNO and the government unpopular with the tactic approval of Abdullah / Khairy. When the BN government falls, no pity will be felt for UMNO. Khairy knows he needs to get rid of the 40 to 60 years old warlord if he wants to be PM in 9 years time.
Mahathir, poor Mahathir, he was sucked into the plan unknowingly by Abdullah and Khairy. He made the Government very unpopular when he criticized the Government. Including washing the dirty laundry in the public. He is a has been and would not be of any use now to anybody. He is an old man past his glory days.
Muyuddin is just a stooge of Najib to force Abdullah out as a PM. This is only role and he has no more value except spending time in Prison.
For the other warlords I will come back to them in regards to their fate in my follow up which will be soon and also the role of the bloggers in the rise of Anwar and the defeat of Najib.
