As I have said earlier the Perak crisis will enter Round 2.
Today, the Court of Appeal has granted Zambry the BN backed MB a stay of execution and to continue as MB until the case is disposed off.
It's back to square one for Nizar. There will be appeals and counter appeals.The constitutional jugglers and peddlers would continue to spin their own version of the constitution.
Unfortunately, the joy, a flash in the pan, was short-lived for Nizar, Pakatan and their supporters.It's back to spit and sputter for Pakatan supporters on unfair judiciary, political intrigue and a tale of cloak and dagger of the BN government.
Maybe, someone in Pakatan can suggest some street demo and civil disobedience to maintain their political culture of defiance.Well, let's hope they respect the court's decision.
Round 2 will be slow and painful for Pakatan.

Nizar Should Go Back To The Assembly
Hantu Laut
Nizar should go back to the assembly to show that he has the majority support of the members to continue as menteri besar and that Pakatan has control of the house.Then there would be no need for him to ask for dissolution.
A dissolution is not necessary unless there is a stalemate in the assembly.The Regent should ask Nizar to prove his claim that there exists a stalemate. The assembly must reconvene without any members being barred from attending it.
The sacking of the two assemblymen that crossed over to the BN was illegal as the pre-signed undated letter of resignation was considered illegal (a precedence in Sabah) and goes against Article 10 of the Federal Constitution.
The last say is still the Sultan.Dissolution may or may not be granted.

A Test For Nizar: Round 1 BN K.O Round 2 ?
Hantu Laut
Will Nizar be granted dissolution of the state assembly when he meets the Regent to morrow?
The Sultan can dissolve the assembly or ask Nizar to reconvene the assembly and put to the test whether he still command the majority support of members of the house.If he does than there is no need for a dissolution.
Going back to the house could prove fatal for Nizar.
Don't forget judge can err in their judgment.
Round 1 BN K.O.
There is still Round 2 or even Round 3.
The good thing is there is no demonstrations and street protests by UMNO and its supporters.

Perak:A Reversal Of Fortune
Hantu Laut
Now, who says our judiciary is not fair and always sided with the government? I would like to hear what Pakatan supporters have to say.
The High Court has declared that Nizar is still the lawful menteri besar of Perak. The BN should respect the court decision and let the law takes its course.If the state assembly has to be dissolved, so be it.
