| Dr M is cognizant of the fact that the world is watching. |
Dr M is a man in a hurry and he's determined to get the job done. But he is also mindful of public perception. He knows everyone is watching.
That's why after a public backlash over issues involving the Anti-Fake News Act and party-hopping, he quickly made it clear that he was going to do the right thing.
To be honest, not a whole lot of people were bothered by the fact that he wanted to take on the Education portfolio. Fellow leaders within Pakatan like Kit Siang and Anwar said it was okay by them. But the opposition (read: BN) was already making noise about it so Dr M has decided to kill the issue by dropping the portfolio.
There's good and bad in this. I personally think he would have been effective at it this time around. But by dropping this extra portfolio it means he can focus on the various important things he has to do as PM. So, perhaps it's not such a bad thing that he didn't get what he wanted.
It'll be interesting to see who he appoints to this post.
