Raja Petra wrote a very enlightening article on the power struggles behind the current Terengganu Menteri Besar fiasco, explaining why the Agong chose Ahmad Said, and why Badawi is adamant Idris Jusoh is the MB. Take with a grain of salt, but well worth a read...

Update March 27, 2am EST: Idris Jusoh stripped of Datuk-ship by the Agong? Guess his apology wasn't accepted...
Update March 27, 10am EST: The heavyweight match between PM vs Agong ends... Agong wins!
"Idris, who also took part in the meeting, had been directed to accept the endorsement [of Ahmad Said]..." (NST)
har har...
Update March 27, 2pm EST: Malaysiakini, on its free BM site, tracks the chronology of the Menteri Besar debacle, and its subscriber site reports on the events of the night, including a snippy Badawi telling the press that the details of what transpired during the UMNO supreme council meeting was not for them to know. It sucks having to lose face yet again, doesn't it?

:( That's so scary. Tganu is my diving heaven. It is indeed heartbreaking to see the women entrepreneurs (selling keropok & kain) and the fishermen with outdated unsafe equipments, when they should be given proper support from the state govt.
