BN is in full damage control

After declared as rightful MB
The political fallout from Perak crisis hit BN badly. The image is severely dented that one day after the fiasco, there's immediate release of ISA detainee which includes the HINDRAF trio that has been a notorious group to BN. The Perak crisis not only posed credibility problem to BN, but has effectively "confirmed" that there's overlapping power between executive and judiciary.

That's why today, we notice the full swing of damage control in judiciary by ruling that Nizar as legitimate MB for Perak. Although this might not cement the power of Pakatan Rakyat in Perak, this might give chance for PR to hold a new election for new mandate. And for BN, this will pacify some anger Malaysian although we won't see the shifting of voting pattern until BN really does more. Majority Malaysian still does not believe the sincerity of BN.

Let's see how the Perak crisis goes with this ruling. We'll have more shows ahead of us.

Najib: We will appeal against decision
From the headline, it seems like the judge decision has nothing to do with BN. But to me, it looks like there's a separation of power between executive and judicial. But whether this is a true changing faces of our judiciary or one off thing, we never know. This is because of previous judges ruling is not really impartial. But overall, this looks good on BN and Malaysia judiciary.
