Should Tony Pua apologize for calling Hadi 'NYANYUK'

Tony Pua has become more and more vocal, especially during the Selangor menteri besar fiasco. This is not necessarily a good thing, especially if he keeps attacking the president of PAS with stupid and childish labels. Most recently, he labelled the PAS president as “nyanyuk” – the move was not only childish but also sparked anger among PAS supporters. Nothing good can come from his Facebook post, a very weird move to strengthen Pakatan Rakyat (PR).

He should focus on the argument, a trait that makes young adults consider him the future of Malaysian politics. Together with Rafizi Ramli, he is considered a new type of politician who focuses on people’s issue and argues with facts and numbers, something we have missed for so long in the Malaysian political scene. He must understand, the headlines he was referring to were misleading and inaccurate.

The PAS president never said anything about how choosing Wan Azizah will lead to hell, but was speaking about the importance of choosing leaders and how it could lead to hell if the matter was taken lightly. His argument, which based on Al-Quran which is the main reference in Islam, was taken out of context by the media. I am not sure why Tony Pua loves to create new strains in PR lately – perhaps he think that PR can stay strong without PAS.

Perhaps that is why he does not care about DAP Sarawak, which wants to stay alone and does want to be associated with PR anymore.

Why doesn’t everyone focus on strengthening their own party and come back stronger together? DAP must acknowledge that they have their own problems, and DAP Sarawak is only one of them. They also lost Teluk Intan, and we did not heard a word from PAS saying this was due to lack of leadership from DAP leaders.

We miss the old Tony, who is like Rafizi and seems a different person after the MB fiasco. His book, “The Tiger Who Lost Its Roar” is still one of my favourite books. We need you back, Tony. And stop pushing PAS away. We are stronger together.

And most importantly, people miss the old Pakatan Rakyat. –TMI
