MUBARAK NS 3/2017 "enemy in the bedsheet".

Fri 13 Oct 2017.



Just 5 days after "the fight at OK Corral" in Kota Bharu, Yazid called for to-day's "sudden" meeting. Sudden because the AGM was just 5 days ago, and the NS meeting exactly 1 month ago, and this is only the 3rd. meeting for the year. Remarkably Yazid admitted he had a one-hour meeting with the MB this morning. I think he must have let his heart out about being double-crossed in Kota Bharu.

The truth is, Yazid took his loss in Kota Bharu very badly. In these elections, losing 48-84 is huge. He had wanted to resign in a hurried and impromptu meeting in Kota Bharu itself. But, among others, Sainy the former secretary, and Ismail his old friend talked him out of it. Anyway the meeting never happened because there were not enough members around.

So today Yazid really let fly. The only thing he left out was naming the  target of his fury, but everyone knew who it was. The funny thing was, I'm not sure that guy knew who Yazid was talking about. I know him.  He was one of my clerks, and I can't vouch for his intelligence.

Yazid went as far as threatening a sacking for his "enemy in the bedsheet." He mentioned his sacking of the secretary of one of the other organizations he chairs.

For today, he completed the shut-out by naming the secretary as the second member of the Central Committee, and Yusof Misai as his stand-in. The poor guy, who is the Deputy and Negeri's alternate in the Central Committee, now is left high-and-dry.

I'd told a few other members of the Negeri committee that I won't come for this sudden meeting, knowing that a fight might take place. I came anyway, because after talking among a few of us, we agreed that we should solidify and not allow Yazid to resign. If this Deputy takes over, MUBARAK NS would be dead. Thus this "emergency" meeting had an almost  full-quorum. And in spite of the livid language from Yazid, his target remained wordless and looked lost. As I said, maybe he was too dumb to realise that Yazid was targeting him! On the way back from Kota Bharu, a couple of the Chinese members also said this guy should resign, not Yazid. Seeing as to how he's friendless now (even his omnipresent wife didn't come to-day, a first in my memory), maybe he'll resign now.  That's too good to be true. But not impossible.
