PERAK WITH MALAYSIAKINI: Your turn, Mohamad Ariff


Perak turmoil
touches on many people. The ball rolled when Bota guy switch allegiance to Anwar's team. There house was heavy with laughters and thunder. Grins were wide, ear to ear as it were. Everybody on Anwar's side were happy. Of course, that was an indication that the dream of 16th september is coming back. Bota is at the heart of Perak and by the bank of Sungai Perak, once the route of royal entourage from hilir to hulu. The x factor was found!

A week later, three switched camps plus the return of Bota guy. Then things moved rather fast, with the swearing in of the new MB, and excos formed. Oh, things started to go beserk from then on. Chaos in Kuala kangsar. Even Khairy stole the limelight with his pemuda gesture. V Sivakumar barred MB and the excos from coming to the Big House for 18 and 12 months respectively. Then everybody run to the police stations and courts for some kind of justice to themselves. Everybody threw everything with their last dime for broke! Nizar aimed for Royal Flush in this poker game.

Now, it is the turn of TuanYang Arif, Mohamad Ariff Md Yusoff. The atmosphere is really festive! Lets not miss even a second.


High Court Judicial Commissioner Mohamad Ariff Md Yusof will decide tomorrow whether to disqualify himself from hearing the suit filed by former Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jama­luddin.

Mohamad Ariff said he would need time to see if his decision would make the trial of the suit against present Mentri Besar Da­­tuk Dr Zambry Abd Kadir a fairer one. [JC to decide whether to stay or step aside Malaysia Star]
