MALAYSIA - Conspiracy of a thickhead and his jesters

It was a mega conspiracy which briefly became an old man's plot before re-emerging as a conspiracy again. It is touted as actions detrimental to parliamentary democracy.

Initially the tale was presented with much awe, with the alleged involvement of retired top notch politicians, foreign nationals, a media magnate and his entire stable of media outfits and even a former Prime Minister's aide. The infamous and totally untrustworthy fugitive blogger who has now transformed into Najib Razak's greatest lover was among the first to spin the tale. 

Xavier Justo, who never tampered or falsified any 1MDB-PetroSaudi documents or the fugitive blogger's outrageous Statutory Declaration, was also thrown into the plot. When Justo was arrested in Thailand for some other crime, the jesters went into overdrive trying to humour the thickhead. The thickhead thought he had successfully covered his tracks and fooled the people.

As the thickhead is such he couldn't understand why the people refused to believe a single word that he and his jesters were saying, while fresh evidence and expose of the thickhead's numerous crimes against the nation continued.

In recent weeks the conspiracy to topple the government via actions detrimental to parliamentary democracy by utilising Justo's tempered/fabricated/falsified documents on 1MDB-PetroSaudi scandal has all but died. Justo's sentencing to a three-year jail by a Thai Court for blackmailing his employer must have nailed it tight. Justo seems to be a forgotten part of the play now.

Suddenly we have another conspiracy or a plot to topple the government through the back door, or so say a few jesters who could soon be promoted as junior thickheads for their ability to outperform even the best of clown from the Three Stooges. 

Initially it was an old man. A retired, old but influential politician. Then it was the old man, a lawyer, a yellow A4 paper and about 20 other Members of Parliament from the coalition which the lame-duck Prime Minister leads. We still don't know who the old man is but MPs openly accused as being part of the conspiracy by another jester of an anonymous blogger has drawn multiple police reports. Watch closely how the police, particularly the Inspector General of Police, treats these reports compared to the fresh reports alleging another round of 'actions detrimental to parliamentary democracy'.

This latest conspiracy tale is nothing but another attempt to hoodwink the people. Everybody knows it and a few have come forward to educate certain politician/ministers. 

The action of Members of Parliament getting together in private to deliberate on the state of affairs of the nation is not a crime. It is certainly not a conspiracy or a plot. It is the right thing to do and it is provided for under the law. 

If more than half of the 222 elected representatives of the people from throughout the nation who have been allowed to sit in Dewan Rakyat as Members of Parliament decide that Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak is unfit to lead the Government then the Prime Minister must step down. That is the law, it is NOT A CRIME. 

Lately shouts of 'over our dead body' by a minister reverberated threatening those who dared to break ranks to bring down a government via the backdoor. Please confine such threats within the party for party members. It may be an offence within the party, Umno/BN, to break ranks but do take note that desperate times requires desperate measures. 

If you ask me 'Are we in a desperate situation now? I might slap you or get someone to recruit you as the thickhead's jester because you must be an undisputed idiot.

MCA vice-president Gan Ping Sieu who is also a former Deputy Minister explains the provisions in a simple way in his Facebook.

To be a sitting duck is our choice

Some friends ask me, what are the ways that a sitting Prime Minister can be unseated? 

If you believe in the rule of law and the constitutional process, which i no doubt defend, a sitting prime minister can only be "removed" when he loses the confidence of the majority elected members of Parliament.

If you feel, as I do, that despite his earlier efforts as an inclusive and an open liberal minded PM, our PM has

- lost the moral legitimacy to lead the Government of the day,

- could no longer resolve the crisis of confidence that the Government and the Nation are facing, and yet

-- political process doesn't seem to be able to bring about immediate changes ?

Well, please express your honest view to your MP, both in private and public; even organize a petition to ask your MP to take a clear and unequivocal stand whether he or she still think that our PM should continue to serve.

That will be a democratic process one could take. ..or to be a sitting duck and to wait for GE to cast your vote of discontent.

Of course,one is at full liberty and has full political right to defend our PM and accords him the benefit of doubt and express one's confidence in him.

The choice is ours.

Do remember, the mandate of PM and MPs all come from the People.

So, attempting to remove a Prime Minister who has - lost the moral legitimacy to lead the Government of the day, could no longer resolve the crisis of confidence that the Government and the Nation are facing is not a crime. It is in fact national service. A service to Malaysia and her people.

If the IGP and others are still hungry try probing deeper into the recent statements and media interviews of Datuk Haji Abdul Rahman Dahlan the Member of Parliament for Kota Belud and Minister in the Federal Cabinet. 

Abdul Rahman Dahlan may have exposed the actual CONSPIRACY, plot and a host of definite actions seriously undermining parliamentary democracy in our nation. 

The real conspiracy could be the heinous plot to maintain a possible criminal at the helm of the administration, by hook or crook. Abdul Rahman has admitted to such acts, in an open interview with The Star newspaper. 

It is obvious now that even the Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Dr Ali Hamsa has lied to justify the recent removal of Attorney General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail. By Abdul Rahman Dahlan's admission, Gani was not removed because he was sick. Gani was removed because the Prime Minister was about to be charged for a crime against this nation. This was what Rahman Dahlan said. 

Please be reminded that Rahman Dahlan is also the Strategic Communications Director of Barisan Nasional. He said Najib had to 'take people out' after realising that there was a criminal charge being finalised against him.

So, who are the conspirators and what really is the conspiracy? 

Who decided that the move to charge Najib was a conspiracy or a plot? 

Have the police instituted any action or investigation based on Abdul Rahman Dahlan's admission. Why is the often talkative IGP silent on this revelations? 

I'm not a fan of Lim Kit Siang (He has even blocked me on Twitter as in the case of numerous other Opposition politicians after heated exchanges in the past) but I fully agree with the veteran DAP leader's call for Abdul Rahman Dahlan's arrest. 

If we are really keen to expose the real conspiracy to rob the nation and fool the people with lies and deception via deliberate abuse of power and position, we can. As Gan Ping Sieu rightly put it, to be a sitting duck is also our choice.

Those of you who are blowing your trumpet threatening everything that moves including Members of Parliaments against the wishes of an overwhelming majority of the 30-odd million Malaysians please take note that you may inadvertently be the biggest promoters of street demonstrations. 

If you try to scuttle basic democratic rights of the people, via their elected representatives in this case, as provided for under any Parliamentary Democracy, you will just fuel greater public anger. 

Bersih is just around the corner. Don't push those still reluctant Malaysians to the streets.  Thank You!

Stand Up Malaysia!
