To many sceptical Malaysians then, the MACC was dismissed as a tool of the government, which executed selected prosecutions. Also, like many politicians, she seems to have hedged her bets on the faction opposing Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Dr Mahathir may be the boss, and he may not need to seek the consensus of the Cabinet, but it doesn’t hurt to at least inform its members. It wouldn’t be wrong to conclude that the Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Ismail was also left clueless. It’s off-putting because Latheefa has been a thorn in Anwar, Dr Wan Azizah and their loyalists’ side.
