Had a very nice lunch with some very handsome gentlemen today.
One of them, who looks quite like Puss in Boots told me he got a new list of potential Johor MB candidates.
He said since I seem to be into this new Johor MB guessing business, I probably have some ideas of who among those in the list would probably get the job.
First of all, three out of the five candidates in the list were from the old list I had already posted - Nur Jazlan, Dr Latiff and Razali Ibrahim.
The other two are....well, new -
1. Md Jais Sarday, State Youth and Sports Exco, Kluang Umno chief and Mahkota Assemblyman.
My verdict - Performance as an exco was not very outstanding. Does not have the required stature to hold Johor Umno together. Kluang is a grey area for BN. Jais need to do more in his area before having any hope of becoming an MB
2. Datuk Md Othman Yusof, Tanjung Piai Umno chief and Kukup Assemblyman
My verdict - Tanjung Piai is a grey area. Othman need to improve the chances of BN winning comfortably in his own area before harbouring any hope of becoming an MB. My last check in Tanjung Piai indicated that the BN machinery there was still kalam kabut. Othman however was said to have strong backers in KL and a lot of "resources".
Ok, going through the list again, I noticed something glaring. Front runner Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Khaled Nordin was missing. That's weird. My conclusion was therefore - the new list must have originated from KL and not JB. Why? If the list comes from JB, there is no way Khaled's name would be missing.
Hmmm....nice entertainment these MB wannabes, aren't they?
