Former Prime Minister Chedet goes, his wife follows… (although not all in the family have the same opinion…)- Clinton the man goes, Clinton the woman almost returns…
- Bush senior invades Iraq a bit and Bush junior invades Iraq because… (???) … a good son follows the steps of his father…
- Chedet’s son is almost Umno Youth head, just that he has to defeat the son in law of the actual Prime Minister Pak Lah to become Umno Youth leader …
One starts wondering if democracy is really a people’s affair or is it just a family affair?
One smart move of Chedet aka Dr. Tun Mahathir is leaving UMNO and fighting the system from the outside on his chedet blog. Just like in the sixties when Che Det started writing columns in the newspaper spreading his ideas.
Of course his dear wife stands by her man and quits the party as well and even one of his sons follows… It’s an different story all together with Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger and his democratic wife Maria Shriver: you can have a different political stand and still be happily married.
That must be the same idea CheDet’s other son has: Mukhriz stays in parliament to fight the system from within.
Well, if you can fight the system both from without and within, you should be stronger than before. On the other hand we wonder whether this Mahathir – Abdullah fight shouldn’t be restricted all in the family of both and not in the public arena.
