dennisignatius.com/2026/03/08/wil… For Zahid, GE16 may not simply be another election. It may be his last roll of the dice. If his gamble pays off, he could emerge as the next prime minister of Malaysia.

dennisignatius.com/2026/03/04/wha… Why is the PM so intent on protecting the MACC chief that he appears  willing to undermine his own credibility by conjuring up wild and fanciful conspiracy theories about a ploy to topple the government?

dennisignatius.com/2026/03/02/the… The alleged plot to overthrow the government is simply too convenient, too contrived and too chimerical to be believed. If there’s a plot, its against the people not the government.

dennisignatius.com/2026/02/16/the… The PM should have no illusions – the longer this drags on, the more it damages his own credibility and integrity. It is no longer merely about Azam Baki; it is about his weak leadership and an unconvincing commitment to reform.

dennisignatius.com/2026/02/06/zah… Zahid is absolutely right that UMNO needs to change but the answer is not better messaging, smarter marketing, or a more polished sales pitch but a real and fundamental change from within. Is Zahid the man to bring about such change?

UMNO now faces a conundrum of its own making - to remain relevant and in a position of power, it must cooperate with the very party it spent decades portraying as a mortal threat to the Malays. dennisignatius.com/2026/01/23/zah…

When are they going to realize that this the whole Malay unity thing is a fool's errand, a game played by Malay elites to distract attention from their own corruption and failures. Why is it that Chinese or Indians are not obsessed with such silly things? freemalaysiatoday.com/category/natio…

“She vowed to confront her father, the Prime Minister and PKR president Anwar Ibrahim [[over Azam Baki’s reappointment] if elected.” Wrong is wrong and must be confronted whether you hold office or not? Is this leadership? malaysiakini.com/news/743372
