Anwar Ibrahim factor in PR

Li Tsin had already questioned the illogical scenario of the police report against Anwar Ibrahim for sodomy. I would like to look at it from a political perspective. Would Pakatan Rakyat(PR) be able strongly hold together?

The losers in this case would definitely be Abdullah Badawi and the BN government as pointed out by Ong Kian Meng and Oon Yeoh.

As for PR, the current status of it is similar to BBA a decade ago. The coalition has not been registered as the BN. There are no mechanisms to resolve differences as seen in the spate between Kedah MB Azizan (PAS)and Penang CM Guan Eng (DAP).

The strongest factor gluing all PKR, DAP and PAS is Anwar Ibrahim. Thus this new set of sodomy allegations against him has put the PR under the limelight instead of the BN that had been on their toes lately.
