What are the Media/PR guys doing? Double F sleeping on the job?




PPBM, PAS or PN……the Malay opposition….is oblivious to issues of governance and corruption. They are bent on one thing and one thing only, exploiting the race card and bigotry for their own ends.


What of the non-Malays? The cynics among the urban elites, including some Malays, seem so Islamophobic and would like to dismantle the affirmative action programme that this Unity Madani government had embarked upon in the mistaken belief that these programs are dismantling the very fabric that has held the people of this nation together.


And what of PMX and the United Madani government that he leads? They are focused on ridding our nation of corruption and doing what needs to be done so that we can emerge from the dark days of past exploitative governments, to be once again, formidable, economically.


And if you think me remiss, listen to what PMX has to say and you cannot but agree that he has articulated all that we would him to do as our leader and the leader of our nation.



So pray tell me, why is there so much division among the people of our nation and so much derision for PMX and the Unity Madani government that he leads?

Let us gather our thoughts, chill, take five or just step back from the abyss…from the point where what we do is what our worst enemies want us to do….make life difficult for PMX and this Unity government.


I want PMX and this Unity Government to succeed. I do not want the Opposition to gain from anything that I do on this blog. I certainly do not want PN in government.


There is no denying that by the things he does, PMX has given us much to write about, and yet, there is also much that he has done that we have not talked about. ….or to be more exact…that his own media/public relations people have not talked about. PMX's public relations team is lacking in oomph! Not only are they not able to counter the negative press that seems to be able to spin a negative outlook on almost anything and everything that our PMX does, but they are also unable to highlight what has been achieved by PMX and the Unity Madani government that he leads.


A few weeks back PMX told us that letters to the government must be in Malay or they will not be entertained. Sabah and Sarawak jumped into the fray and said nothing doing, the Sabah and Sarawak State government will continue to entertain letters NOT written in Bahasa. And of course, Netizens everywhere jumped in and accused PMX of being too much of a Nationalist….and more bitingly…asked why did PMX not discuss the matter with Sabah and Sarawak before he made the announcement.


The reality is that a common language unites us all - and nobody in their right mind can disagree with that premise - BUT ...where was the media team from PMX's side to push that argument on behalf of PMX?


There was no pushback on the negativity that PMX's statement generated and PMX was left to deal with that negativity on his own. This sort of thing....leaving PMX to face the blowback from the public for the things he does in the name of government, is not good for PMX and not good for this Unity Madani government.


Double F and his ministry, and all the other government apparatus that should do this work for PMX must be revamped and given notice that they must start doing this work or perish. The rising negativity towards PMX and this Unity Government, as reflected in the chatter on the NET, is giving rise to concern for far too many of us for PMX to ignore.


What say you guys?

The friends of PH and PMX are doing a much better job of pointing out their faults than the opposition! Look at Murray Hunter and even yourself. And yes, PH has lost the perception war. The good they do is lost, sometimes intentionally, because it will draw criticism from those who harp on race and religion. In a divided country, whatever you do will offend one of the sides.

The deep state in the civil services that implements policies need to be addressed urgently and may need revolution.Many of these departments,I fear, may have been infiltrated by pro PN operatives at all levels and they are sabotaging implementation of reforms within the system.

Many going reforms have been announced but have not reached the people,these are obvious tell tale signs of breach in effective implementation.

Deep state or/and little napoleons has been around long before anwar became pm.


As CEO of our country, PMX must see through all the reforms that has been announced……… I have yet to be enlightened what are the positive reforms announced and are these reforms just lip service.

To blame the so called deep state for any failures and to give credit to PMX for any success is not fair.

We voted for Anwar as we believe he is much better than the alternatives……… I personally do not expect much of him BUT I was willing to give a chance .

Maybe 1 year is too short a period for him to show how successful he has been BUT 1…

PMX is hardly a year into his job.

Heading a coalition where some party nominated Ministers still still looking over their shoulders. with everymove,some behaving like turtles on postal box, others like a deer on the road staring at car headlights, and some behaving like a superior village idiots in the way they speak.and their assumptions of level of intelligence of those around them....and worse are those who are tied down by obligations to race and religion in almost all issues

One aging PM.had 22yrs, another had 22months,ruling by emergency decrees,another had 8yrs ,another had 1sleepy term,another a really blurred term.

PMX belum.setahun lagi....yet the scything criticism ,simply unbelievable....with some ,labelling PMX as Spokesperson for Hamas, the most brutal.organisation in…
