Australian PM John Howard suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of the Labour Party leader Kevin Rudd, who has promised to immediately sign the Kyoto Protocol on global warming and withdraw Australia's combat troops from Iraq. Australians remain strong supporters of the so-called Anzus alliance,the security pact among Australia, New Zealand and the United States, but,a great number of Australians do not approve of Mr. Bush or the Iraqi war.
Howard also suffers the indignity of losing his own seat in the Sydney suburb of Bennelong, which he has held for 33 years. Only the outcome of pre-polls and postal ballots might see him thru,ala Najib style. However,despite those pre-polls and postal ballots Howard failed to defend his seat and became the the first sitting PM in 78 years to face such a humiliating defeat.
In his speech,after winning the Premiership,Kevin Rudd said, "I will be a Prime Minister for all Australians," "Let us be the generation that seizes the opportunity of today to invest in the Australia of tomorrow. That's the mission statement we have as the next government of this country." He added, "I want to do it with all of us working together."
That’s what our PM,Pat Lah,promised when he won the last general election. He said,”I will be a Prime Minister for all Malaysians,come work with me and not for me” However, things never worked out as promised,he became arrogant and never listen to the rakyat’s plight. He promised to fight corruption,but condoned his minister,children,UMNO goons and cronies to indulge in corrupt practices. He promised to do away with mega projects, but instead replaced it with mega corridors here,there and every where running into trillions of ringgit Malaysia and handing out these projects to his selected cronies, his children and his son-in-law.
To Kevin Rudd….dont be another Pat Lah…. best of luck.
cheers.
Bush not only lost Australia as an ally to the Iraq war,but Britain,
ReplyDeleteSpain & Poland when the govt. that licked Bush ass & supported the war were bundled out by the people.
Bush lost a lot of friends now & soon he will be playing his pocket marbles at his ranch in Texas.
Wah the new Australian PM also want to copy Pak Lah by saying 'Kerja dengan saya' in English la of course. Then he will coin up cemerlang, gemilang terbilang in English, sleep on the job, go for holidays in borrowed yachts, sleep on the job, coin up Christian Hadhari, sleep on the job, open up an Australian equivalet of Nasi Kandar in Kuala Terengganu, sleep on the job, and close it down in a few months, sleep on the job, sleep on the job and sleep on the job.
