Menanti... the Penanti penalty

What if the Election Commission (EC) had decided there's not going to be a by-election in Penanti?

I received an SMS from a regular Little Bird on Monday. It contained three predictions.

One: That the EC would meet on Wednesday, yesterday, to deliberate on the vacancy for Penanti, but would delay the announcement of the decision to next Monday, and not tomorrow, Friday.

True. Thing has come to pass.

Two: That MACC will not charge Ahmad Fairus Khairuddin. Announcement on Thursday, today, it said.

True, again. Thing has come to pass.

Now, I am very nervously waiting for the third prediction to unfold.

Besides, there are some more tips for Pakatan Rakyat which the Little Bird and I are worried about, but clueless.

Friday... Monday...

Meanwhile, Umno supreme council is to meet tomorrow night, Friday, to decide if it is to contest in Penanti, et al.

This afternoon, we asked EC chairman at a dialogue in Putrajaya this afternoon if tomorrow's Friday is of any significance to him.

Wait till Monday, he said.
