KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here ordered former PKR vice-president Zuraida Kamaruddin to pay RM10 million in damages for breaching a party bond she signed six years ago.
Justice Akhtar Tahir ruled that the party succeeded in proving its claim against Zuraida.
PKR, through its secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, had filed a suit in 2020 against Zuraida, claiming that she had breached the contractual bond by joining Bersatu following the Sheraton Move in late February 2020.
The party said it was invoking Section 71 of the Contracts Act to establish its right to recover compensation from the benefits Zuraida enjoyed as Ampang MP as well as a minister.
In her defence, Zuraida claimed that the bond was “unconstitutional”, adding that PKR cannot execute the terms under the agreement as it breaches one’s freedom of association under Article 10 of the Federal Constitution.

The ongoing dilemma for liberals and moderates in Malaysia is about whether there is an alternative to Anwar Ibrahim and his unity government. I am in some “intelligent” and “not-so-intelligent” chat groups, and there is always a heated debate going on about this.
The old-school liberals want an inclusive and corrupt-free Malaysia. They want the Malaysia that Tunku Abdul Rahman and his coterie of like-minded communal leaders envisaged. A Malaysia where everyone is treated with fairness, all citizens have equal growth prospects enshrined in the constitution, and a Malaysia that does not disintegrate into a parochial non-secular nation.

PETALING JAYA: Perikatan Nasional is seeking to leverage on Azmin Ali’s influence in Selangor to secure victory for the coalition in the upcoming state election, a political analyst said.
Syaza Shukri of International Islamic University Malaysia said Azmin has been tasked with winning Selangor because PN recognises the uphill battle ahead, especially in urban constituencies.
“PN is looking to capitalise on grassroots relations Azmin established in Selangor during his tenure as menteri besar,” she told FMT.

| Dr M, Hadi and Muhyiddin — the 3 blind mice |

From Clement Stanley
Three Blind Mice – the popular nursery rhyme – could have been written with the presidents of PAS, Bersatu and a former prime minister in mind — all of whom have gone way past their shelf life.
Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Abdul Hadi Awang and Muhyiddin Yassin are blinded by their lust for power at any expense and don’t see the need for stability.
With the impending six state elections, their only strategy is to play the race and religion card over and over again.
Why can’t they, for a change, talk about how they can improve the quality of life for all of us if given the opportunity to lead the government, be it at the state or federal level?

| Will the Chinese heed double-faced Hadi’s appeal for their support |

DOUBLE-faced PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang appears very desperate now with the imminent state elections that he finds it necessary to appeal to the Chinese community to help the Islamist party “to save Malaysia”.
By and large, PAS has often used the Chinese and the DAP as its punching bags. It is unlikely that the Chinese would give the Islamist party their votes.
Hadi is, in fact, admitting that the country which was led by Perikatan Nasional (PN) under two former premeirs Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob had gone from bad to worse.
PAS was very much part of the coalition and despite having a Malay majority Cabinet, Ismail Sabri’s government also collapsed.
Although the collapse of the former Pakatan Harapan (PH) administration was due to the Sheraton Move in 2020, the PN coalition also subsequently collapsed in November last year due to the outright rejection by Muhyiddin of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s (YDPA) suggestion to form a unity government.
