Former prime Minster Mahatir was very disappointed towards Abdullah’s performance. Mahatir suggested Abdullah should resign and said he had made a mistake in selecting him as prime minister.
In fact this time around, BN suffered its worst ever result in Saturday’s polls, losing its two-thirds majority in parliament for the first time since 1969 and conceding four more states to oppositions.
Abduallh Badawi was punished over rising crime and inflation in an election. He also deemed as unsuccessful leader for not managing the rising racial tesnsions between majority Muslim malays and minority ethic Chinese and Indians.
I think the people must have been very angry, all the races, Chinese, Malays and Indians, Mahatir said.

This time, for this year’s election, the elections’ result was announced. This year was the most shocking result. Finally, the Barisan Nasional was dealt its worst ever electoral result, losing its crucial two-thirds majority and 5 states had fallen into the opposition hands. The 5 states are Penang, Kedah, Perak, Selangor and Kelantan. I am sure the media press and bloggers have been played their part to persuade the voters to choose “deny BN2/3”.
In addition, the MIC chief S Samy Vellu had been defeated. The opposition has denied the government its much-cherished two thirds majority by winning 82 seats against BN’s 131. At 4.12 am with the BN chief, Abdullah Badawi, saying: we’ve lost, we’ve lost.
