The dust is gradually settle on this busy week. First Asean, Asean+3, East Asia Submit. Then Global Peace Forum and then WTO meeting in Hong Kong. Minister of International Trade and Industry Rafidah Aziz busy handle Asean submit and then WTO meeting to end today in Hong Kong.
While media has to cover all the above plus recent strip and squats issue. It is a best opportunity to announced cabinet reshuffle to caught every one by surprise.
Whether cabinet reshuffle happen soon or later, it is interesting to analyze the fate of Deputy Internal Security Minister Noh Omar and The Human Rights Caucus chairman and Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz.
Media like to attend press conference call by Noh Omar previously as he usually have breaking news for media especially on corruption. He support strongly Pak Lah policies especially on eradicated corruption. Media initially expected Noh Omar would be promoted on coming cabinet reshuffle.
Whereas Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz have bad track record as he has investigate by ACA when he was a entrepreneur Development Minister. . Political analyst expected Nazri might be drop in the coming cabinet reshuffle.
However, what happen recently have change all the above.
Noh Omar express displeasure when the lady from China come to Parliament to look for Nazri who is chairman of The Human Right Caucus rather than him as a Deputy Internal Security Minister. He pay a price on this emotion when he choose to protect his own subordinate by asked foreigners to go back to their own country if they find the Malaysian police cruel. He later offend the media by mentioning that media has misquote him.
He was later reprimand by the Prime Minister who is also Internal Security Minister (Noh Omar direct superior) and Finance Minister 1 (Who know the important of tourist from China on our country economy).
Nazri did a good job as a Chairman of The Human Right Caucus. His act was accepted by opposition and whole Malaysian, and most important, in line with Pak Lah policy. He is expected at least to keep his Minister job, if not promoted to more important Ministry.
Home Minister Datuk Azmi Khalid, who is said handle the repatriations of Indonesian worker inappropriately and cause mini recession was assigned to head the delegation to China to explaine to the government on the incident. Thus, out of the three Minister who was unelected as a UMNO central committee. He appear more safer than the other two.
It is interesting to see what will happen then!
Update: When I write the above article. I so not know The Sun have published an interview with Datuk Seri Nazri Abdul Aziz. Datuk Seri Nazri Abdul Aziz give explaination on ACA investigation, his effort to reform parliament by forming more non partisan caucus. I have more respect on him after reading such interview. As a human, I understand his explanation on why he loss temper on M. Kulasegaran case. However, such incident really sent bad image on him if he never give explanation. A leader should not only be fair and reasonable but also seen be fair and reasonable. Hope he improve in such area in the future. Read the interview here
