“Nobody’s blaming Kit Siang for his strong faith in Anwar but he jolly well be right about Anwar”
PRIME Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s supporters – Tan Sri Lim Kit Siang included – simply do not understand. They keep thinking that people are criticising Anwar and the unity government because we are impatient with results but that is not the case.
We know that results take time. Heck, we even know that the results are not fully in Anwar’s or the unity government’s control.
Take the economy for example. If the economy does badly, we know that it might not necessarily be Anwar’s or the unity government’s fault. Results depend on many things, among which is fortune and luck.
If Anwar and the unity government truly did their best – even if they couldn’t get the desired result – we can understand and accept that fortune was just not on our side. The problem is that we don’t believe that Anwar has tried his best or is even trying at all.
We don’t see Anwar trying to re-establish the doctrine of separation of power, institute the independence of the judiciary, fight against corruption, practise good governance, make educational reforms or uphold human rights or freedom of speech and religion.
