Politics run a few layers deep and this video that we have found may show you how that works.
As we all know, the Johor elections happened during the weekend and BN has won the majority in that state.
In a news video by Astro 本地圈, we see several well-known figures in the Malaysian political landscape.
Among them are Dato’ Seri Hishammuddin Hussein, Dato’ Sri Ismail Sabri Yaakob and Dato’ Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
A few of them were standing on stage and PM Sabri was in the second row when UMNO President Zahid Hamidi seemed to be looking for someone.
He found who he was looking for behind Prime Minister Sabri, so he grabbed the PM’s hand and tugged him slightly to make way for Bossku Najib Razak.
As there was not enough space, the current PM and the former PM had to stand shoulder to shoulder.
Netizens were very amused by this interaction.
“Pity the Prime Minister.”
“I laughed when he was pushed to the side.”
“I heard the Prime Minister’s heart break a little.”
“Most hilarious scene of the century.”
While there are some who are concerned with how close they are all standing.
“Will they get fined? SOPs were clearly not abided to in this scene and they still did not get fined? Is it double standards again?”
What did you think of the video? Let us know in the comments!
