Anwar Ibrahim will swear as well
August 27th, 2008 by MM2H
But unlike the other swearings that got the news, Anwar Ibrahim will be sworn in tomorrow as a new member of Parliament - God willing that is.
Yesterday Anwar Ibrahim won the Permatang Pauh by-election with a 2/3 majority of the votes:
|
Anwar Ibrahim got 31,195 votes |
66.6% |
|
Arif Shah Omar Shah got 15,524 votes |
33.2% |
|
Hanafi Hamat got 92 votes |
0.2% |
Anwar Ibrahim now faces 3 challenges:
- staying alive
- staying out of jail and
- living up to his promise: taking over the government by forming a majority coalition at September 16th.
Whatever happens, we hope Malaysia will benefit.
