Too Late For Regrets – Traitor Azmin Now Worse Than Before He Betrayed His Own Party - superadmin - 07-22-2024 Too Late For Regrets – Traitor Azmin Now Worse Than Before He Betrayed His Own Party PKR In 2020 With a blink of an eye, the prospect of becoming the country’s youngest prime minister evaporated into thin air. It was only in 2018 when Azmin Ali, at the age of 53, was on cloud nine after Mahathir Mohamad appointed him as Minister of Economic Affairs – a newly created portfolio to reduce the size and involvement of the Prime Minister’s Department in the economy.   In his evil effort to groom Azmin as a potential prime minister, then-Prime Minister Mahathir had transferred all the economic functions of the Prime Minister’s Department to the Ministry of Economic Affairs, particularly the powerful Economic Planning Unit (EPU). Essentially, the new portfolio would allow unlimited opportunities to enrich the minister through nepotism, corruption and embezzlement.   Mahathir, who ruled with an iron fist for 22 years (from 1981 to 2003) as the 4th Prime Minister, before returning as the 7th Prime Minister in May 2018 at the age of 92, knew precisely how to bribe his pawn in exchange for loyalty. It was the same way a younger version of Anwar Ibrahim was recruited – and rewarded – back in 1982 by master strategist Mahathir. - More -
