Is Nik Aziz Losing His Grip?
Any PAS supporter out there would be forgiven for thinking his party was in the news for all the wrong reasons.

The Tunku Aziz Saga: The Lim Dynasty Got It All Wrong
The DAP Secretary General Lim Guan Eng is probably not going to be dragged kicking and screaming before the MACC because he offered an academic job to Tunku Abdul Aziz Tunku Ibrahim – the Malay elder statesman he hounded from the party.
But the sight of Parti Cinta Malaysia vice-president Huan Cheng Guan standing outside the Penang MACC offices holding a report he had just filed alleging corruption by Guan Eng over the job offer is the latest ch...
The Great and the Good
Not a Friend of Free Speech
The attack on the press by Penang chief minister Lim Guan Eng has evoked a storm of criticism from the public and from independent observers.
Already seen as proud and arrogant, and far less charming and diplomatic than his old father Lim Kit Siang, he has now destroyed his credibility in the view of his critics.
The Centre for Independent Journalism (CIJ) said it was now clear that a Pakatan Rakyat-led government would not guarantee media free...

What does Aung San Suu Kyi say to her closest friends after breakfast? And what about our own Official National Martyr, the De Facto Opposition Leader?
