Thanks Datuk Abdullah Badawi. Seems like you are quite a gentle man. You were doing ok until your first wife died and this collapsed your support system and the wind went out of your sails. After that you were just trying to survive and it was obvious that you were a lost man. Have a good rest in retirement and thank you for the service.

At times, we have been critical of Pak Lah, while overlooking the personal aspects of his reign. I believe the pivotal moment in his tenure was not political, it was personal. It is often overlooked, and we should thank PASOK for pointing this out.

That was the death of his first wife, Endon Mahmood. From that point onwards, I believe he went on autopilot. Khairy Jamaluddin then took control.

But this, is a very idealistic view of things. Realistically, the facts are that he overpromised, and even prior to the death of Endon Mahmood, it was clear that his regime, with a massive majority was arrogant, complacent, and inept. With this in mind, let us ask the following:

1. How could a program like National Service be introduced without the mandate given? It was certainly a sign of arrogance, particularly when 16 people have died since it started.
2. How could a program like Islam Hadhari be introduced? It was merely an attempt to manufacture something to out PAS PAS themselves. It will be a brave man who will stand and say "Seperation of religion and state". I respect prayer and religion, but the problem is, humanity and earth are not divine. Trying to create the divine on earth leads to countries with rather dubious human rights records such as Saudi Arabia. By contrast, trying to create the secular and athiest on earth creates evils such as the Soviet Union and Cambodia. When Islam Hadhari was launched, I frowned, and said "This is not very intelligent". I considered it a clumsy attempt to engage Kampung people. More so, I regarded it as insulting the intelligence of the rural Malaysian community, who know Islam well enough without any Government minister inventing fancy ideas.
3. How could he allow Hishamuddin Hussein, previously regarded as a Charismatic moderate to make a complete clown of himself at the UMNO conference at PWTC?
4. How could he say "I am the Prime Minister for all Malaysians" and.....behave as the Prime Minister for only the Malays?

Many are still unsure Anwar Ibrahim, he has the spirit and the vitality, and I don't see anyone else in the sidelines who can unify and heal the land? I do like Anwar, but again, he is being put on a pedestal, and it will take more than one man to dismantle the poisoned aspects of Malaysian society in the Government services etc. Noone should ever go on such a pedestal again. The last man to have a pedestal in Malaysia was..........Mahathir.

I still believe that there is more to the Altantuya Shaaribu case than meets the eye, and that Najib Tun Razak etc should be innocent before proven guilty. But when men are being detained in Kamunting, should they actually be accorded that priviledge?

We may well ask, what will be the sobriquet accorded to Datuk Seri Ahmed Abdullah Badawi after his departure?

As of the time of writing, October 8th 2008, it will not be flattering. Between now and March however, he might have some tricks up his sleeve. Do not underestimate him. We can only hope that while looking asleep, he has been sharpening the knives for the people who actually deserve it.

Its time for a change in Malaysia, if only so that the ones who have held the levers of power for so long have their spell in opposition, so they can review their conduct, learn, and reform. If Pakatan Rakyat screw it up, then come back in 2013 and fix it.

Mr. Prime Minister,

Finally you have made up your mind, and I wish you a peaceful and happy retirement.

Before you leave office, the rakyat of Malaysia would like to make a request:

PLEASE, RELEASE ALL THE ISA DETAINEES !! The rakyat shall forgive you for all the wrongs you did to us, and your name shall go down in history as the Malaysian prime minister with a heart of gold, with dignity and compassion...

Pak Lah before you leave office, it is important that you plant some good seeds in your position. Give a deep thought to release RPK,Hindraf and the rest. By so doing you will leave a strong impression of a compassionte PM. You will then reduce your emotional blockages and burden. When you finally have to meet the Almighty you shall be able to bring along the good deeds and merits. All the ISA detainees have family and they need them to be home. Thiink about what I say if you read this message.

We just want basic human dignity, freedom to live as normal human beings free from oppression, intimidation and power abuse. You still have a few months as PM of Malaysia can you please embrace all the races and religious groups and do something very basic for the whole country.

We are grateful citizens and will remember you for this.

We have to be thankful that the Mar 8th tsunami and all the awareness were indirectly due to him. Imagine if we were still under the old doctor who is nipped any small problem with ISA / OSA and iron-fist. The general movement of 'dissension' such as Hindraf, etc may not have happened.

Lest we forget, Pak Lah freed DSAI from imprisonment.

He also let his ministers exposed how inadequate the current ruling party is.

I believe Dr M is back in the controls.

This Abdullah Badawai has damaged the Country during his short tenureship as the Malaysian Prime Minister. He mishandled all and everything as a Prime Minister which lead to the fall of the 5 states to our Opposition. This has never happened in our Malaysian History. He should not be allowed to wait till March 2009 as he may do more blunders which may bring our Beloved Country Malaysia to shambles. He has been pressed by all quarters to go immediately but he wants to hold to his socalled 'pantang cabar' policy. At last what happens to this guy who is being ousted with force. He fails to undedrstand that this is a democratic country. If the ISA is simply being misused, the Rakyat would thrown the BN in the coming General Election with ease. The Rakyat put you MP's up there to perform your duties fairly and once you misuse the trust given to you MP's, watch for the next Genral Election ans see where you go!

Many of us who cursed the Old Man will actually come to miss the gaffer.

Our PM in waiting will have so many things swaying around him that he will have no choice but to resort to more and more force and the Elections process will be a bigger laughing stock that it is today.

All the Ministers will want to outdo each other to show their support to the new Boss and heading the line will be Syed Hamid Alba(God Save Malaysia) with more and more detentions without trial.

If he becomes PM, NTR will not be short of support from his attentive wife(Defacto Minister of Finance?),his Bank tycoon brother and lets not rule out Special Advisor on Strong Arm Government,TDM.

Why is he still pretend to be loving the Nation by promising he wants to do this and to do that? If he's that capable to do so many of the reforms, why shouldn't then he stay and do more good deeds?!

Two wrongs cannot make one right, the rakyat had suffered due to his stupidity and until and unless he can do one last thing right, i.e. to slap on the face of that bugger Botak Sai Hamid, to release RPK now, he can still earn a last respect from the rakyat! Failing which he will not earn the Father of any kind but a mother of some kind

I've always laughed about the RAHMAN prophecy but the possibility seems all too real now.

AAB, a relatively benign PM, is leaving and in his place will come a man who is seemingly connected to a murder case, wants to bath his keris in the blood of 20 % of Malaysians, and who has a dubious track record in his military spending. Add all this to the fact that the nation will soon be a net petroleum importer, is running with a deficit budget for the 12th year in a row, and is seeing an outflow in investment.

Recipe for disaster? I only hope that we fare better than the Filipinos did when they tried to retrieve the wealth from the Marcoses.
