Malaysia's Mahathir, 92, to be sworn in as prime minister
- Thread starter micromachine
- Start date
I think PKR has the highest number of seats. So king should appoint Wan Azizah to be PM to form govt. Therefore, legally she is the one to decide who to be PM if she chooses to relinquish the PM post after forming the govt.
Therefore, technically, Mahathir is not in the position to decide. Wan Azizah is the one to call the shot.
The thing is mahatir is sort of the front man of the alliance...and it has all agreed he be PM...and later Anwar will take over after he is release and wins the BE...so if mahatir is replaced un conventionally ...there will be uproar and the m&ds that that votes oppo will turn against them. And don't forget the biggest issue is the bumiputra policy. The m&ds want that policy to remain but the minorities wants it abolish.. better to let mahatir remain and deal with these hot potato issues..also heaps of interest groups are affected because their gravy train was BN...they will pull out all stops to disrupt the opposition...it won't be an easy ride for the opposition
My apology for not being clear. Under their election rule, if no single party has 112 seats, I think the King shall appoint a PM from the party with the highest seats to form the govt with other parties , i.e. coalition. So coalition formed before election results is not officially recognized. It is probably wirh this in mind that Mahathir's party was made "illegal". Therefore, the appointment of PM to form govt is still quite messy.
All mahatir had to do is get his party absorbed into the PKR...tat way problem solved.. in mudland parleement can defect n change party etc also won't lose seat
Even mahatir could rise from his grave and become prime minister again in a free election.
sum party ask their candidates 2 sign letter 2 resign if dey changed party after winning ... otherwise, haf 2 pay dunno how much ... got cases where sum after winning n kena lottery from other party, became independent but din cross over ...
Birds of a feather flock together...both are soft men and both believe money alone can solve everything even weakness of character.Dr M looking at the evidence from durian to lo hei.
Private home dinner
Signing of contracts hastily before election
Both are in the position they are in bcos of dad
A serious bout of amnesia has hit mudlanders, voting for the one person responsible for their miserable lives and exodus to foreign countries for jobs while shouting reformasi. Voting him back in will suddenly improve their lives? Anwar is the biggest fool of all, he has zero chance of ascending the throne, which Dr. M will conveniently leave to his own son...
my gut feelings tell me so too.
The PMship is decided on the basis of whoever has the majority support of the elected MPs. It's not based on parties, party size, etc. So technically, Najib from the losing party can still be PM if there are enough MPs (including those MPs from the winning PH parties) should they decide to support him to be PM.
If it happens , all I can say is 1 MDB scandal is more complicated than what the world has thought .
Won't happen. At Mahatir's age, it's all about quitting as a winner and leaving a legacy. So Anwar will be the next PM.
john talking out of his ass again.
this king is different from the rest...one who is actually pious. Actually met him when he was doing his post-grad in europe. humble fella, goes about incognito dressed in islamic garb, never spotted drinking or womanizing.
