Turn of political events

The turn of political events this past week has been nothing short of dramatic effects. The existence of two Perak state governments, one headed by Nizar and his excos who refused to resign and the other headed by newly installed Mentri Besar Zambry. It is a forgone conclusion which one will prevail since BN enjoys the support of the civil administration, the police and the armed forces.

Then there are the forthcoming bye-elections, one the Bukit Gantang parliamentary seat whose PAS MP passed away and the other a Kedah state seat of Bukit Selambau vacated by Arumugan due to intense pressure.

In view of the current world economic situation, while most countries are busy trying to put their countries into a sound financial footing, we are busy playing politics--trying to secure party hopping and preparing to face expensive bye-elections.
