The Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib has good reasons to be in happy moods these few days.
Two weeks before his 100 days as PM , a survey conducted showed that his approval rating had increased to 65%.
This is a big increase from the 42% he scored just when he took office.
With the slew of goodies announced in conjunction with his 100 days as PM on 11.7.2009, his approval rating can only go up.
The unexpected slim majority win by PAS at the Manek Urai by election, which UMNO has claimed as a moral victory, is another reason for Najib to be happy.
Some political observers will even say that the by election result is an indication that UMNO has won back the support of the Malays.
I will repeat that we can and should not rule out the possibility of the Parliament being dissolved at the of this year or early next year.
Hence, Pakatan Rakyat must buck up . In fact, there have been political observers' comments that PR is losing momentum.
Some PR supporters have recently expressed to me their unhappiness about the various recent internal spat among the PR parties.
We must not underestimate the disastrous effect of such ceaseless internal spat on PR credibility and image, especially when our problems are exploited in the BN controlled electronic and printed media.
The voters have placed great hopes in us in the last general election and we must not let them down. Time to back up.
In this regard, Sdr Lim Kit Siang's call that the PR leadership Council set up a disciplinary committee to restore public confidence in PR cohesion, unity and common sense of purpose is timely and ought to be acted upon.
