Can you trust PKR? Ever?

In the aftermath of an intra-Pakatan squabble about Azmin Ali (PKR) buat ta'tahu on the very important issue of state seat allocation, and allegedly lying that PKR has already held 4 meetings with 80% of candidates identified, which Amanah and DAP disputed kaukau, PKR has come out in aggressive fightback.


It has been known that PKR aims to re-contest in all the 21 Selangor seats it contested in GE13, as well as some of UMNO's 12 seats, which will leave Amanah and Pribumi short if the DAP were to contest again in the 15 seats it won in GE13 (and why shouldn't the DAP? Wakakaka).

Worse for PKR, Zaid Ibrahim has just lambasted the selfish ketuanan party as a prima donna in Pakatan, especially in Selangor and Negri Sembilan, wanting to dominate everyone else and desiring the most number of seats and the highest position there is.


Anyhow, Selangor PKR Wanita chief Haniza Mohamed Talha has come out fighting to say that PKR Selangor is prepared to surrender its desired state constituencies BUT ONLY if the other Pakatan Harapan parties are willing to prove their winnability in those PKR-staked-out seats they are eyeing.

This has just been reported in Malaysiakini's S'gor PKR willing to forego seats if others can prove they can win.

She squawk (wakakaka), "If they can prove they can win in the seats they are demanding, there is no problem for us (to allow them to contest)."

B
ased on PKR's lamentable record of agreement with the DAP, I would say that's BULL, wakakaka.


Haniza Mohamed Talha 

Look, Haniza Mohamed Talha may be honourable in her challenge to the other parties in Pakatan, but someone above her is NOT, wakakaka.


That's right, don't ever believe this line of bull that PKR peddles. I like you to recall what occurred in 2016 in the period surrounding the Sarawak state elections.

In that state election, PKR and DAP had both eyed 11 state seats.

On the insistence of PKR's Tian Chua, both PKR and DAP engaged pollster Merdeka Center to conduct a survey on six of those 11 seats to ascertain the voters' preference.

The outcome was unfavourable to PKR as the pollster’s findings found the DAP was the preferred party (in comparison to PKR) in all but one of the surveyed constituencies.

Wasn't that evidence of winnability?

Did PKR then respect that finding?

Well, at least at the top level of the two parties (Whoa, Azmin Ali himself and Guan Eng) who then agreed that DAP would take Mulu, Murum, Ngemah, Mambong, Simanggang, Senadin, Tasik Biru and Bukit Semuja, while PKR would contest the Batu Kitang, Marudi, Machan, Layar and Belaga seats.


But Tian Chua reneged on the deal based on a poll which he insisted on and initiated. At the close of nominations, PKR and DAP were seen pitted against one another in six seats, namely Mulu, Ngemah, Murum, Mambong, Simanggang.

The DAP who was also more favoured in Batu Kitang, but in a bid to maintain Pakatan cohesiveness against BN, had originally conceded that constituency to PKR Kitang as a goodwill gesture. The polling in Batu Kitang showed 60% of the voters favoured DAP while only a measly 8% will vote for PKR.

But when PKR was hell-bent on contesting the 5 seats already allocated by the top Pakatan leadership to the DAP, namely, Mulu, Murum, Ngemah, Mambong, Simanggang, DAP decided to play toit for tat by threatening Batu Kitang.

Oh oh oh, do you know what happened when the nomination for the PKR candidate in Batu Kitang was being submitted?

Her proposer was found to be an alleged bankrupt, which would have automatically invalidated her candidacy, and gave the DAP blue-ribbon seat to the BN without even a fight. What a f**k-up!

What was PKR up to, in having an alleged bankrupt as a proposer to a PKR candidate in such an important sure-win seat? I suspected the EC gave the PKR a second chance because a 3-corner fight in Batu Kitang would favour BN rather than the DAP. 

I have my theory on why PKR was so apathetic in Batu Kitang, but we'll leave that for another day. Here, please read this FMT news item published yesterday, as follows:

PKR rep for Batu Kitang almost disqualified

Nawar Firdaws | April 25, 2016

Sarawak DAP chief Chong Chieng Jen says PKR candidate Voon Shiak Ni’s proposer was found to be a bankrupt.


Naturally Azmin Ali backed Tian Chua. But at the same time, Azmin also placed the blame on Bian Baru, saying the PKR state leader had autonomy in deciding where to stand, notwithstanding the two party signing agreement on seat sharing-allocation. Basically, Azmin was saying: to F**Ks with any agreement which did NOT favour PKR.

At that time I read Rafizi Ramli and Xavier Jeyakumar saying Wan Azizah was the only one in PKR who has the authority to sign off candidates for the Sarawak elections, and that she did NOT assigned her powers to anyone but which Azmin claimed she did.


Malaysiakini had then also reported:

Azmin claimed he made the decision based on the mandate given to him by party president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail to settle the seat negotiation disputes.

"I was given the mandate in writing by the president to resolve all outstanding issues concerning the state election, including seat allocations and the candidates," he said at a function in Shah Alam today.

"I was given the mandate by the party. Can you question it? You should not question it," Azmin added.

However, Azmin could not remember when Wan Azizah gave him the mandate.

That's Azmin for you. Mahathir too has been like that, not remembering where was a certain letter or file he referred to, wakakaka.

In another Malaysiakini reporta PKR leader said the party president (Wan Azizah), who signed the appointment letter for 35 candidates, turned down the request for three-cornered fights, saying:

"She had dealt with the recent developments nicely, she had put her feet down and made it clear that she would honour what has been agreed."

Additionally it must be sheer bullshit that the Sarawak PKR state leader had autonomy in deciding where to stand as PKR has been notorious as a party which has always been obsessed with centralised control from KL.

For a PKR that was/is de facto under Azmin Ali, there was/is no such words as 'autonomy' for the state branch - we also witnessed that in Sabah and recently in the resignation of William Leong (MP Selayang) who quit the PKR political bureau out of frustration after the party leadership (guess who? wakakaka) said it'd continue to try and work together with PAS to prevent three-cornered fights, against Pakatan policy.


William Leong (MP Selayang) 

So don't believe or take up Haniza Mohamed Talha's challenge. As I mentioned, she may be honourable in her dare to the other parties in Pakatan, but someone above her is NOT, wakakaka.

Finally, PKR contested 21 seats in GE13 and won only 14. Doesn't that prove PKR will NOT be winnable in 7 of those seats? Wakakaka.

  1. PKR is a party of opportunists and backstabbers.It not only includes Azmin and Manmanlai,but many others not worth mentioning.I will rather have the Arabian camels screw them then have them near Donald Trump.Not within a fifty foot pole anyway.

    The way Azmin is playing it seems to be that he does not want to rock the boat.That is the Najib/BN boat.Maybe he knows that if by the works of the skies that lightning strikes and thunder howls like a crazy dog and PH is the next incoming federal government,he will be treated like a used condom and discarded.

    Nobody likes creeps that plays both sides.So maybe the dwarf have a secret pact with the devil too?
