Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim muncul sebagai pilihan popular untuk menjadi perdana menteri, diikuti oleh Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, demikian menurut hasil tinjauan pendapat oleh Merdeka Center.
Hasil tinjauan tersebut menunjukkan 40 peratus memilih Anwar manakala Najib memperolehi 34 peratus. Manakala satu perempat responden tidak dapat memilih atau yakin dengan kedua-dua calon tersebut.
Dalam soalan berasingan, 39 peratus bersetuju Najib boleh menjadi perdana menteri hyang baik, manakala 44 peratus lagi tidak bersetuju.
Ini dianggap sebagai satu berita baik untuk timbalan perdana menteri itu walaupun ketinggalan di belakang Anwar kerana peratusan penerimaannya sebagai perdana menteri telah meningkat lima peratus berbanding dengan tinjauan pendapat Julai lalu. Manakala peratusan untuk Anwar pula turun tiga peratus.
Ketika dihubungi, pengarah eksekutif Merdeka Center, Ibrahim Suffin berkata ini adalah kali pertama mereka membandingkan Anwar dengan Najib.
“Antara sebab kami turut memasukkan soalan itu kali ini ialah kerana tinjauan ini dijalankan di sekitar 16 September. Juga, Anwar telah menonjolkan diri sebagai bakal perdana menteri,” kata Ibrahim.
Sebelum ini, penasihat PKR itu telah menetapkan tarikh 16 September untuk mengambil alih pentadbiran kerajaan pusat dari Barisan Nasional.
Seramai 1,002 responden dipilih untuk tinjauan pendapat tersebut yang diadakan antara 11 hingga 22 September lalu.
Dalam tinjauan itu juga, hanya 15 peratus percaya tuduhan salahlaku seks terhadap Anwar manakala 13 peratus lagi percaya beliau seorang “penjenayah seksual”.
Walaupun 21 peratus percaya dengan tuduhan bahawa beliau menjadi “ejen Amerika” tetapi 51 peratus lagi percaya ketua pembangkang itu seorang pemimpin yang “kuat dan berwawasan” serta “seorang pengurus ekonomi yang cekap”.
Penyokong Anwar adalah lebih pelbagai kaum, berbanding dengan penyokong Najib yang sebahagian besarnya orang Melayu. Bagaimanapun, tidak dapat dipastikan sokongan sebenar orang Melayu kepada kedua-dua pemimpin tersebut.
Sebanyak 17 peratus orang responden Melayu percaya Anwar seorang “penjenayah seks” manakala hanya 8 peratus responden Cina dan 1 peratus responden India berkongsi sentimen tersebut.
Hasilnya adalah sama berhubung tuduhan Anwar seorang “ejen Amerika/Yahudi” dengan 28 peratus Melayu berkata “iya” berbanding dengan hanya 12 peratus (Cina) dan 4 peratus (India).
Apabila ditanya secara khusus sama ada Najib boleh menjadi perdana menteri yang baik – tanpa membandingkan beliau dengan orang lain – responden Melayu 52 peratus, Cina (29) dan India (10 peratus).
Mengenai Abdullah
Hasil tinjauan tersebut juga menunjukkan ranking bagi Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi tidak berubah berbanding dengan tinjauan bagi bulan Julai.
Bagaimanapun, ramai rakyat Malaysia (21 peratus) menyifatkan keadaan politik yang tidak menentu yang menyelubungi negara sekarang sebagai kebimbangan mereka yang paling besar – meningkat daripada 10 peratus berbanding dengan dua bulan lalu.
Sebanyak 50 peratus berkata mereka masih begitu bimbang dengan isu-isu ekonomi. – mkini
nota: Memang tidak dinafikan DSAI lebih popular berbanding DNTR. Tetapi harus diperhatikan bahawa kedua-dua tokoh politik ini menggunakan pendekatan politik yang berbeza.
Any sane person in the country knows that Anwar will make a better PM. Najib is far away from having a mettle to be an astute leader. Besides, with his tarnished credibility, it would be an almost uphill task getting the respect from the people.Najib’s rise into his present position came through parental and other vested patronage, not because he had some exemplary qualities of leadership. He hasn’t been through the mill. He would be detrimental for the future of the country. Very likely Malaysia would degress rather than progress. As soon as he graduated from Nottingham University he was appointed to a a comfortable position in Petronas coz of his father. He hardly knows how to work up on his own mettle. So having Najib as PM would be an absolute gross error. On the contrary, I give full marks to DSAI coz he has proven himself with dignity. My choice is DSAI. thanks.

very educational comments…good
My choice of the next Prime Minister would be Anwar Ibrahim. He has the experience and ability to lead this country into the future. He was the former DPM and knows how to run the government.
On the other hand Najib being the serving DPM should have used all possible avenues to overcome some of the serious economic, social, political and racial problems that Malaysia is facing. Why should he wait till the day he becomes Prime Minister to take steps to solve these problems. If that is his intention that it is selfish in nature and clearly does not auger well for him.
Malaysians needs a capable leader to take the nation out of some of the worst difficulties ever faced. I have more confident on Anwar to deliver that and not Najib. Malaysia appears to be drifting in the ocean and we need to safe the situation.

Who Is Baradan Kuppusamy?
By Anwar Ibrahim
Dear Abang Din,
Ramadhan Karim and I hope you are well and doing fine.
I’m an ardent reader of your blog and I leave a comment most of the times specially if the topic is “explosive” and heat generating. (I use the tagname Abdul/Abdullah in your blog). That said, you may know one Baradan Kappusamy who writes for whoever pays him or whichever paper that demands his article which is mainly an anti-Anwar articles. My Indian friends call him a “paid whore.”
His behaviour and hatred against Anwar is very strong and he strongly supports Najib and we have reports that he has been recruited by him to run down Anwar. You can see it his the Star commentary yesterday and today’s The Malaysian-Insider (both BN leaflets) which are simply hateful concoctions full of bigotry, biased reporting and hatred.
I have looked for his contacts and even my Indian friends failed to get them, I wanted to contact him concerning his shameful diatribe and hysterical hatred against DSAI but I can’t get his contacts. I have been told that he is a shadowy figure who is a hired assassin. Therefore, I appeal to you Abang Din to try your best to supply me with his contacts (email, or phone, or both) if you have them or can get them through other friends in the media. He sometimes writes in Malaysiakini, so may be you can get his contacts from your Malaysiakini friends and pass it to me through this email address. (I have also contacted Susan Loone just now and I hope she will answer me).
Yesterday, I have contacted blogger MagickRiver (Antares)**, an Indian Anwar supporter and he told me that he couldn’t get the contacts of what he called a “shameful paid whore.” So, try your best if you can get me his address. Otherwise, you can contact him ask him the cause of his hatred against Anwar. He should be bombarded with outrageous comments in relation to his outrageous conduct so that he knows there is a limit. I’m really mad at this shameful character.
Thanking you in advance
Happy Hari Raya.
Note from Din Merican: “Let us ban Baradan Kuppusamy from our PCs, if there is truth in this private e-mail to me. Salams.”

So, how do you feel when Anwar (or his mate) also :
1. Ban ! ban source of net info;
2. Search and call and seduce other to search for his foes;
These are going back to the zero point even worst !!!
