the so-called cabinet reshuffle

KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi announced a new Cabinet line-up at 2.45pm. - TheStar online

So the most anticipated and much awaited event under Pak Lah's administration - the cabinet reshuffle, finally came today after months of talks and rife speculations. Generally speaking, i think it was more of like just a minor reshuffle. Nothing major in it. What more when you have people like Zainuddin Maidin and Tengku Adnan being promoted to a full minister post and few other old timer from the early days of Tun Dr. Mahathir, were still around. sigh. Certainly there is nothing much to shout about. In short, it was a dissapoinment.

After nearly two years of holding the premiership post, i don't seem to find any major or drastic changes that he made. He appears to just play it safe. He is not much of a risk taker unlike Tun Dr. Mahathir. Maybe i have yet to see his visions and ideas being laid out clearly. Well, i just don't know. Hopefully it's all for the better. Sometimes i miss the days of strict authoritarian-like leadership rule of Tun Dr. Mahathir. You either love him or loathe him. You see, i just couldn't help but to distinguish between these two leaders. hmm..
