I got to hand it to the strategists in BN.  What happened in Perak is a brilliant strategy.

First they get one fella to cross over to Pakatan.  They then made sure the press conference made front page news on almost every newspaper and the news on every TV station, showing them celebrating and holding their hands high.  It was a Pakatan victory.  I was already curious then why the govt controlled media was giving this kind of exposure to Pakatan. 

It showed BN in a bad light and Pakatan milked it for all it’s worth.  ‘Another BN rep had yet again lost confidence and jumped ship.’ ‘Another BN rep had yet again come to his senses and join the government that was for the rakyat.’  I was sold.

But then the real bombshell dropped.  3 fellas crossed over to BN, well as independent candidates but pledge their support to BN.  The fella who crossed over to Pakatan then decides to cross over back into BN.  Pakatan was in no position to protest because they had celebrated the crossing over of the BN fella.  If Pakatan had protested now, it would show them as hypocrites.  And now BN was singing the tune that Pakatan had so proudly sung a few days ago.  It’s an absolutely brilliant strategy.  Well done.

This shows that Najib is no Abdullah.  He and his team (whoever they are) put much thought into it.  Put people and strategy into play. 

Things have also been slowly happening in the corporate world.  People are slowly being placed into corporate Malaysia that are Najib friendly.  Something Pak Lah failed to do.  This shows that Najib is gearing up for a long rule.

Anwar should have killed off the competition when he had the chance with Pak Lah.  He had the numbers.  Or at least he told us he had the numbers.  Of course, not many of us believed him.
