What poetic justice for Mahathir


Malaysiakini:

Sacked from Bersatu; poetic justice for Mahathir

Malaysiakini

YOURSAY | 'He set a trap for his enemies. Unfortunately, he fell into it together with his foes.'

Dr M, Mukhriz and three others' Bersatu memberships 'nullified'


Anak JB: Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, this is the poetic justice for believing and surrounding yourself with traitors and for promoting your blue-eye boy Azmin Ali to check Anwar Ibrahim and not wanting to give up your prime minister’s post as promised.


You overplayed your card and you did not know your enemy within. This act of treachery from your enemies within was unprecedented and it made Si Kitul, the ultimate Malay traitor, very tame in comparison.

The traitors thumped their chests and shrieked until their lungs burst to hoodwink you to believe that they wanted you to remain as PM for the full-term, but ended up throwing you under the bus.

Without a party platform, they know you will not thrive. You have disappointed your many supporters who voted for you and gave you a second chance to make it right, but you were still pandering to your ex-Umno and Malay loyalists who had deserted you and did not support you.


In the process, you lost the goodwill of the many Malaysians who voted for change.

I pray and hope you will retire from politics and let Pakatan Harapan do their soul searching and try to rejuvenate themselves.

William Tell: This is ‘finito’ for Mahathir. It took a long time to come but it was overdue anyway. It is time for Malaysia to move on without him.

He has been the bane of Malaysian politics - a man so untrustworthy and devoid of any principles or redeeming feature.

Now we can concentrate on the business of reforming this country. He no longer has any options and it is best for him to bide his time and fade away.

Mazilamani: Why are many pretending to feel sorry for Mahathir? The fact that he resigned to cause the collapse of Harapan is reason enough to terminate his membership with Bersatu. He provided no reason or explanation to Bersatu's central committee for his resignation.

Mahathir not only abandoned the party but also the nation. Fortunately, the King, in his wisdom, advised Mahathir to serve as an interim PM until a successor was chosen.

But despite being an interim PM, didn't Mahathir conspire to become the 8th PM?

Those who followed him to leave the party also did not provide any reason. They just left the party, though none may have submitted official letters of resignation. It indicated that they wanted no association with the party.

They also chose to sit separately from party MPs during the recent Parliament sitting - a clear confirmation of their split from Bersatu.

Are these not enough reasons to sack them? Will the central committee not have done the same if Muhyiddin, Azmin Ali and others left the party in a similar manner?

Mahathir and the four others deserved the sack.

CES: Mahathir set a trap for his enemies. Unfortunately, he fell into it together with his foes.

He planted the seeds of discord in PKR and DAP, but it backfired and his own party is now imploding with his sacking. What poetic justice.

How can he face the world? Even if he is technically right that you can’t sack someone without due process, this action by Bersatu is humiliating.

Mahathir should just pack it in and call the MACC and open all his books.

Majority Must Safeguard Minority Rights: Sacked from Umno in 1969. Step down as PM in 2003. Resigned from Umno in 2008.

Quit Umno again in 2016. Resigned again as PM in 2020. Resigned from Bersatu also in 2020. And now sacked from Bersatu.

Is there anything unpredictable about this man?
