A leader blaming a past leader

It's absolutely wrong for Dr Mahathir Mohamad to say that the present prime minister is facing difficulty because he inherited a weak government led by an 'incompetent' prime minister.

If true, then the fifth prime minister also must have found it difficult to handle the country because he inherited a government led by another 'less competent' prime minister before him.

Mahathir should also admit that what the present prime minister is facing is also inherited from his time as prime minister. He should just admit it instead of continuously putting the blame on others.

Of course, the fifth prime minister did not obtain a strong mandate from the people in the 12th general election. Nonetheless, the fourth prime minister also did not get a strong mandate from the people in the 10th general election. So what's the bare difference between the two leaders?

And it looks like the present prime minister too is not going to get a strong mandate from the people to govern the country comes the next general election. Not only BN would be deprived of two-thirds majority as reported and predicted by Mahathir but there is all likelihood that it may lose to Pakatan Rakyat in the next general election.

And if it is based on Mahathir's equation, there is all probability that the new government is going to inherit all the 'mess' created by the present government.

On balance, we practise democracy and 'people power' is always crucial in determining who should govern them. When leaders come with a lot of baggage the people will make up their minds not to support them.

This is common sense. If a party fails to deliver and makes life difficult for the people, let another party take over in a democratic way.

Good or bad governance is sometimes a matter of perception. The present prime minister is facing difficulty because of many reasons, some of which are only best known to him. The culture of corruption among some leaders cannot be eradicated and this has become a 'tool' for the opposition to exploit.

Also, there are those personalities who wield too much power and cannot be 'touched' by the authorities at all for fear that the whole party system will collapse or it will give a negative perception of the incumbent government.

The culture of corruption was endemic during the fourth prime minister's reign and this was passed over to the fifth prime minister to deal and now to the present prime minister. Corruption at all levels has been rearing its ugly head since the reign of the fourth prime minster, then passed over to the fifth and sixth prime ministers.

Rife corruptions at all levels did not start during the fifth prime minister's tenure. It started way back before that.

Despite all the publicity given to corruption, cronyism, abuse of power, wastage of taxpayers' money by the alternative media, not much has been done by the incumbent government to tackle the problems until today.

The mainstream media is gagged and does not to highlight all these issues. The good thing now is that the people are not as ignorant as before and they are aware of all these political menaces and turbulence.

In fact, the alternative media is doing a service to the people by informing them of all the wrongdoings and abuses that are happening in the country.

Alas, the people today perceive the mainstream media, the judiciary, the police and the MACC and many other government machinery as mere 'tools' for politicians to remain in power.

Investors are scared of these ordeals and even local investors are making a flight to other countries. They all see a bleak prospect for the country.

The Perak debacle in 2009 has caused immeasurable damage to the image of the country. The Anwar factor too has a bearing in the Malay political equation. Where Umno loses PAS and the opposition wins. PAS, a Malay-based party, has adopted a soft approach to politics as opposed to Umno. PAS is gaining more support these days from all races in the country.

Arrogance does not pay. Harsh words on the non-Malays have undeniably hurt their feelings. Consequently the non-Malays have begun to shift their allegiance from the incumbent to the country's opposition party.

Good for the nation, the non-Malays of today do not have qualms about voting for PAS. DAP has metamorphosed for the better and become more mature in politics.

The general public now perceive PAS, DAP and PKR as more moderate and a more viable coalition than BN and Umno - the backbone party of BN. All these events have happened not during the tenure of our fifth prime minister but the present. Why blame the fifth prime minister then?
