In American football, the losing team is within reach of the end zone and the clock is ticking down. The team waits for the last two minutes known as the “two minute warning”.
The quarterback throws deep into the end zone hoping his men will catch the ball and score a final touchdown without any time left for the opponent to come back. This is known as throwing a “Hail Mary.”
Pak Lah is in his final two minutes of the game. Will he have the tenacity to fight like a wounded tiger? Pak Lah, I hope you are reading this. You can leave office with your head down and tail between your legs or you can go with a legacy and guns a blazing. To preserve your name and for the country this is what you should do:
1. Insist that the trial of the decade be completed by December. Expose whoever was behind the murder of Altantuya and bring justice for the family of the deceased.
2. Unleash the ACA fully and give them the green light to bring to book any alleged corruption involving the defence ministry and the ministry of trade and industry in the last five years. Prosecute those who have plundered and robbed from the citizens.
3. Reshuffle your cabinet and bring back Zaid Ibrahim. Remove all those who challenged your presidency. Give Zaid Ibrahim a free hand in reforming the judiciary
4. Revisit and call for a royal inquiry into the 1988 judicial crises and prosecute those who have wronged the nation.
5. Investigate and prosecute all those involved in Project M where illegal immigrants flooded Sabah and were given Malaysian ICs.
6. Repeal the ISA and free all ISA detainees or bring to court those who are truly criminals.
7. Implement the IPCMC for the Royal Malaysian Police
Pak Lah, you must be firm in carrying out these reforms. You must carry them out swiftly. Do not even hesitate for a minute. They must all be completed or at least be half completed by December this year.
Listen to nobody and each day focus on these reforms. If you do so, you will be the best prime minister Malaysia has ever had. Please be courageous enough to complete these reforms. For all you know, you may even lengthen your days as prime minister. Good luck.
