For former minister Zainuddin Maidin, Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia chairperson Dr Mahathir Mohamad has once again emerged the victor following the cancellation of a debate between the latter and Tourism and Culture Minister Nazri Abdul Aziz.
This, said Zainuddin, was because the cancellation was done by the government and that Mahathir was nothing but a "senile and crazy" man.
"Whatever the reason given, the rakyat are obviously of the view that the government is not able to face Mahathir," wrote Zainuddin on his blog today.
