Malaysia’s Parliament dissolved, elections to be held soon
It’s official folks! Malaysia’s Parliament has been dissolved today, and we can expect the elections to be held in less than 60 days. Most predictions put it closer, saying it will likely be held within 30 days.
This announcement comes from Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, who only yesterday denied that Parliament would be dissolved today. The reason for the flip-flop is probably some strategy to confuse opponents, but it just comes across like some petty, girlish, little kid act. At any rate, it probably confused as many allies as enemies in this case.
No surprise here though, that the PM’s final act before dissolving the government is to prove once again, that he is a liar.
