Chandra also explained that Khalid is a better Menteri Besar material than PKR and DAP’s choice of Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail.
On Abdul Khalid’s worthy reputation as the state’s Menteri Besar, Chandra said he not only has strengthened the state’s financial base, but of all the Menteri Besar and Chief Ministers who have held both the portfolios during the past 57 years, he has been the only one who does not practice handing out projects and contracts to his cronies.
“That is a good thing because it has become a disease. Some people go to politics for that reason, to gain contracts and projects, not because to serve therakyat. The man put a stop to such practices.
“But Anwar wants his wife there because he wants someone that he can control. And Wan Azizah has said openly that she is willing to be his puppet. I can't see how you can function as a Menteri Besar when you are just a puppet.
"She is an inapt leader. She is not a person who has leadership quality. It’s such a shame that Anwar is insisting Wan Azizah to become the Menteri Besar.
"In terms of competence, which is a very important attribute of a leader, Khalid is far more competent than Wan Azizah. Can you name me one outstanding speech she made in Parliament? Can you name me one outstanding service that she has done as MP. It is just mediocre,” he added.
