Analysis Fallen angel Anwar Ibrahim - the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor - has set 'the uncanny calm of Sarawak before the storm' in his sights after Permatang Pauh. He made this clear even in the midst of hectic campaigning in Permatang Pauh, citing that Sarawak Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud has overstayed his welcome.

The fact that this call didn’t come from people that matter in Sarawak is a big political mistake and Taib’s inner circle led by his predecessor and uncle Abdul Rahman Yakub, if not the man himself, must be laughing their heads off. However for how long is anybody’s guess.
