26th August could very well be a landmark historical date for Malaysia in the future - It was the day Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is voted back into Parliament, 10 years after his exile. He won by an even bigger majority than his wife's in his constituency of Permatang Pauh, 15 671 majority to be precise. The English daily today reads "Anwar becomes MP". Well, many would wonder if MP would get reversed to PM by 16th September. A decade ago, Anwar would be sitting at the Parliament front row, waiting to be PM and presently, he's sitting at the front row but opposite side, and still waiting to be PM.
I think BN had already expected him to win and it's just formality that they place someone there to challenge him. So, it's no surprise for them and they surely have one or two dirty tricks lined up for Anwar.
