Race on for new Malaysian PM: A look at the different scenarios

[TerrexLee]

Scenario 1 – Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah or Ismail Sabri Yaakob


Under this scenario, support would come from Perikatan Nasional (PN), which has 50 MPs, Gabungan Parti Sarawak (18), MCA (2), MIC (1), four independents (Julau, Tebrau, Kuala Langat and Ranau), PBS (1) and the two Umno (38) factions.


This formula is the same as the support of 115 MPs for PN under Mr Muhyiddin.


Whether it will be Kelantan prince, Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, or Umno vice-president Ismail Sabri Yaakob depends on ongoing negotiations.


While the Pagoh MP will no longer be prime minister, it will be largely status quo as the government parties are the same.


Scenario 2 – Anwar Ibrahim variation #1


The PKR president could be prime minister if all 105 MPs in the opposition support him, plus the 15 Umno MPs led by party president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi who pulled support from Mr Muhyiddin.


The composition of current opposition MPs are: Pakatan Harapan (88), Pejuang (4), Warisan (2), Parti Sarawak Bersatu (2), Upko (1), Muda (1) and one independent (Simpang Renggam).


With Mr Zahid’s 15, it will give Mr Anwar 120 MPs, which is 20 more than the PN bloc.


However, this is unlikely to happen as Mr Zahid had promised the Umno general assembly earlier this year that it would never support Mr Anwar or go into government with DAP.


Also, Pejuang under Dr Mahathir Mohamad has so far remained adamant it prefers a National Advisory Council to run the country rather than join the race to name a new prime minister.

Must be that race, otherwise it'll be a political career suicide.

How about that kris waver Hishamuddin? He seems to get along well with PAP scum.

Apart from Mahathir, he has not much support outside of Sabah. My guess is Anwar will promise Shafie the post of DPM instead to placate his supporters and also to gain the support of the people of Sabah and Sarawak.

My bet on Razaleigh to be chosen as the new PM. Some Malaysia media portals have reported that the Gong Gong Agong and his fellow Sultan brothers preferred Razaleigh since he is also from a Royal Family.

I don't understand the Mat concept of being afraid and subservient to their Sultans. These Sultans are selfish Fucktards ,love the good fast life, fuck around and being drunk when overseas. They bully the commoners. Every year the state Government through the Federal government would allocate these Sultans some state land for them and guess what? They sold their allocated lands to the Chinese towkays and some even had the cheek to demand the federal Government give them more state lands! Mahathir put a stop to their nonsense in the 90s after the then Johor Sultan's blatant show of tyranny towards one of his subject. Even Tunku when he was alive, he was exasperated by the antics of some state Sultans when they were holidaying overseas. The Government then even had to pay off the casino debts of a Sultan who suffered huge losses He visited a foreign casino and at the same time he was causing a diplomatic embarrassment for Malaysia. If this present Gong Gong Agong insist on appointing an UMNO man as the new PM instead of Anwar, then I guess you can never eradicate stupidity on a certain race even if he has royal blood oozing inside him.

The monarchs are protected by the system. You criticise them at your own risk. Not worth going down that road. But everyone knows the days of the monarchy is coming to a end.
One reason is cost. Another is interference by monarchs in politics and the monopolies use of state land for their personal benefit.
