Ambitious and Boastful?


I seriously doubt Anwar Ibrahim will be a good PM. He is more interested in becoming the Prime Minister and getting Pakatan Rakyat to form the government thru party-hopping than nation-building. His own actions speak louder than what anyone can say about him.

I'll be PM in three years, says Anwar

Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim today confidently predicted he would be prime minister within three years, sketching out the first rough timetable for his dramatic political comeback. "I don't think we have established a definite clear time-frame when I will take over (as prime minister) but it certainly wouldn't reach three years ... much earlier than that," the former deputy premier told AFP.......

Anwar: Pakatan Rakyat can take over Fed Govt by Sept 16
By MUGUNTAN VANAR

KOTA KINABALU: The Pakatan Rakyat is in a position to form the Federal Government and it will be done no later then Malaysia Day on Sept 16, according to Parti Keadilan Rakyat adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Reiterating that the three-party alliance had the numbers and was in no rush to replace Barisan Nasional, the former deputy prime minister said it would all be in the timing of the announcement.

“God willing we will be there. If not next month, the following month, if not June or July, on Merdeka (Aug 31) or Malaysia Day. I think we should not exceed beyond that,” he told reporters on arrival in Sabah on Wednesday.....

Anwar is a good speaker and an opportunist. But then most politicians are opportunists. I will not be proud to have a government that is formed due to defections. This gives the impressions that there is no true belief in what the party stand for and leaves much to be said about the integrity of the politician. That is why I admire Tun Musa Hitam. He did not form a party to contest against UMNO after he lost to Mahathir. This shows that he has integrity and principle.

Luckily, someone of integrity like Tun Musa Hitam is not leading Pakatan Rakyat, if not BN coalition will fall like dominoes.

Well this is all BN old tactics that he "recycle".

Personally this is not the right way to become government. If they have credibility at all, just resign and call by-election and let Rakyat decides again.

Still, his many years of incarceration, I believe have gave him an unique opportunity to see both side of UMNO dominated BN.

May he be a better person and possibly PM for that.
