Hypocrites crying foul over Kedah

THE fact that Mukhriz Mahathir is shown the door for the second time as Kedah menteri besar should not be construed as an attempt to usurp democratic conventions.

Crossing the floor is a universal practice, and happens even in mature democracies. Sometimes, it results in a change of government, and sometimes, it does not. Even in Malaysia, the practice is not exactly alien. So, who are Dr Mahathir and Anwar to complain about the change in Kedah MB due to reps jumping ship, when they were masters of the game in the past? Is it because Mukhriz is Dr Mahathir’s son and mounting a challenge against Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin in the upcoming party polls?

Let’s not forget Perak in 2009, when the crossover of two Pakatan Rakyat assemblymen triggered the collapse of PAS MB Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin’s administration. Is it now wrong for PAS as part of Perikatan Nasional to give back the same medicine to its enemies? What kind of double standard is this?
