When will be the general election be called? Only the prime minister knows. You know the guessing game has been going on for one year. What were the previous members of Parliament and state assembly-persons voted in for? Nothing but for wasting the taxpayers’ money!

The tenure for the government voted in is five years but in actual fact it always lasts for only four years. The representatives would work for three years and will spend the fourth year preparing for elections. Worse still are those getting another salary for being a cabinet minister! They get paid while doing their campaigning.

We should change the system for the general election. We should remove the power of the PM to dissolve Parliament. The government should complete its full five years of tenure. Unless there is an emergency in between, the King should not endorse the dissolving of Parliament.

The advantage in this is that the ruling coalition would be careful in running the country. They will never be able to call for an election to their advantage. The flaws of in the elections system in the past have resulted in unfair elections and this has subsequently resulted in a ‘bully government’.

I pray that the citizens will wake up to see the flaws. It is time for a change. We see that since the time of the former premier until now, things have been getting worse each day: These include:

• Limited freedom of speech with newspapers being constantly warned and some banned.

In conclusion, when is the general election? Let me guess. If I am wrong, don’t blame me, blame the flawed system. It would be in April or beyond. Why? Because Abdullah wants Anwar Ibrahim to be in Parliament. Because the PM cannot deal with all those corrupt officials around him.

Anwar, being in Parliament, would expose the sins of these people. So PM would have good excuses to axe them. Therefore Anwar is a good tool for Abdullah Anwar is capable of restraining those wild Umno MPs.
