What Next for Abdul Khalid?
Since Abdul Khalid is now party-less, it would be kind of strange for his councilors from PKR and DAP to be working with him, unless these councilors are still supporting him as menteri besar.
Jeg Hui
We Selangorians now have an independent Menteri Besar after his sacking from PKR yesterday. Irony. Abdul Khalid Ibrahim was accused of a working “independently”, “not a team player” all this while anyway as he would not listen to de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim when running Selangor. Well, if this is not a good thing, then you are being hypocritical with the way you see others ruling the people by proxy i.e. having a puppet leader.
Yesterday also marked the fall of Pakatan Rakyat government in Selangor, technically speaking, as the state is run by Khalid Ibrahim and his team of Executive Councilors. Since Abdul Khalid is now party-less, it would be kind of strange for his councilors from PKR and DAP to be working with him, unless these councilors are still supporting him as menteri besar. Or, that they are a bunch of power-hungry politicians who would not relinquish their positions with or without Khald. I am inclined to believe the latter.
As mentioned in an earlier article, PAS is now in the driving seat in both determining the new Selangor government and the vote of no confidence motion in the assembly, if that would ever happen. PAS are effectively at the crossroads of their own party struggle (perjuangan) with either to stay ethical and honorable or sacrifice a good man for the sake of Pakatan Rakyat, in a marriage of inconvenience with DAP and PKR, against the force of old foes Barisan Nasional. Their decision would simply be the road PAS would take in determining its own future including at national level so they really have to think it through, and quick.
