Silver State's Sickening Sad Sandiwara

Silver State's Sickening Sad Sandiwara

There are some interesting arguments in this blog.

Nasaruddin’s decision is critical and reflected the sentiments of his voters, namely the Malays in his constituency ... this reflected the demand of the public and ... as the beginning of a new wave - Anwar Ibrahim (when welcoming UMNO's Nasarudin Hashim's defection to PKR)

;-) that's the danger of sleeping around with frogs - they won't turn into Princes Charming, coz politics aren't fairy tales and besides, frogs having no loyalty nor morals, are more likely to shaft you (like they did their old side) as that's how they promote their own interests


Jumping in is okay but jumping out is not legal. Hee, hee, hee! - Dr Mahathir (sniping at Anwar Ibrahim)

wakakakakakakakakakakaka


After the March 08 GE, the Sultan of Perak dragged his feet in swearing in the PR State Government. Why is it that He is now so speedy in sacking the PR State Government, and equally speedy in swearing in the Barisan Najis government?

I am very flabbergasted! What has gone wrong with the highly respected Former Chief Justice? - sing lau, February 06, 2009 Malaysian Insider

You tell me ;-) but I have never placed my faith in royalty


The least the sultan could have suggested was for a vote of confidence taken at the assembly before he asked Mohd Nizar to resign and hand over power to BN.

However, the sultan was quite adamant on what he wanted – for Mohd Nizar to step down immediately, and a few hours later, he backed the appointment of Zambry as the new menteri besar.

Sultan Azlan Shah has overruled Mohd Nizar’s repeated request for the dissolution of the state assembly, which would pave the way for fresh state elections.

And by so doing, the sultan who was a former lord president and an eminent reader of the law, had caused a constitutional crisis in Perak - K Kabilan (Malaysiakini journalist)

see sing lau's comments above - HRH was noticeably a wee too eager to gert rid of Nizar and the PR state goivernment


He is the guardian of his people. He must listen to their wishes. He cannot make a decision which the majority of his subjects do not approve.

If we thought a constitutional crisis was looming yesterday, well it is with us today. Perak is facing a constitutional crisis and it is caused by its own sultan - Professor Abdul Aziz Bari (constitutional expert)

I don't like Prof AA Bari very much as he has been noted to be over-the-top pro-PKR but in this instant his remarks may be worth examining, as it seems to concord with Kabilan's.


Many, including the Bar Council have said that His Highness's decision not to dissolve the Perak legislative assembly although advised to do so by the menteri besar (Mohd Nizar Jamaluddin) is beyond question or in legal parlance non justiciable - Zaid Ibrahim (former Law Minister)

HRH has actually ignored his own written words in his book 'Constitutional Monarchy, Rule of Law and Good Governance in 2004' that 'no sultan or agung had withheld consent to dissolve legislative body, except in Kelantan in 1977' ... and that ...

'Under normal circumstances, it is taken for granted that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong would not withhold his consent to a request for dissolution of parliament. His role is purely formal'
