Can you trust PKR? Ever?
KTemoc Konsiders
In the aftermath of an intra-Pakatan squabble about Azmin Ali (PKR) buat ta’tahu on the very important issue of state seat allocation, and allegedly lying that PKR has already held 4 meetings with 80% of candidates identified, which Amanah and DAP disputed kaukau, PKR has come out in aggressive fightback.
It has been known that PKR aims to re-contest in all the 21 Selangor seats it contested in GE13, as well as some of UMNO’s 12 seats, which will leave Amanah and Pribumi short if the DAP were to contest again in the 15 seats it won in GE13 (and why shouldn’t the DAP? Wakakaka).
Worse for PKR, Zaid Ibrahim has just lambasted the selfish ketuanan party as a prima donna in Pakatan, especially in Selangor and Negri Sembilan, wanting to dominate everyone else and desiring the most number of seats and the highest position there is.
Anyhow, Selangor PKR Wanita chief Haniza Mohamed Talha has come out fighting to say that PKR Selangor is prepared to surrender its desired state constituencies BUT ONLY if the other Pakatan Harapan parties are willing to prove their winnability in those PKR-staked-out seats they are eyeing.
This has just been reported in Malaysiakini’s S’gor PKR willing to forego seats if others can prove they can win.
She squawk (wakakaka), “If they can prove they can win in the seats they are demanding, there is no problem for us (to allow them to contest).”
Based on PKR’s lamentable record of agreement with the DAP, I would say that’s BULL, wakakaka.

Look, Haniza Mohamed Talha may be honourable in her challenge to the other parties in Pakatan, but someone above her is NOT, wakakaka.
That’s right, don’t ever believe this line of bull that PKR peddles. I like you to recall what occurred in 2016 in the period surrounding the Sarawak state elections.
In that state election, PKR and DAP had both eyed 11 state seats.
On the insistence of PKR’s Tian Chua, both PKR and DAP engaged pollster Merdeka Center to conduct a survey on six of those 11 seats to ascertain the voters’ preference.
The outcome was unfavourable to PKR as the pollster’s findings found the DAP was the preferred party (in comparison to PKR) in all but one of the surveyed constituencies.
Wasn’t that evidence of winnability?
Did PKR then respect that finding?
Well, at least at the top level of the two parties (Whoa, Azmin Ali himself and Guan Eng) who then agreed that DAP would takeMulu, Murum, Ngemah, Mambong, Simanggang, Senadin, Tasik Biru and Bukit Semuja, while PKR would contest the Batu Kitang, Marudi, Machan, Layar and Belaga seats.
