Source : http://www.malaysiakini.com/

In case you are wondering...or in case you've been like me..ignoring the ever so uninteresting m'sian politics and such....

after much hoo haa...think i'd better (at least) get an overview of what the heck is happening in Perak...reluctantly..i clicked on Malaysiakini...here goes..a little summary ..

5.08pm: 'PERAK GOVERNMENT FALLS'.
Najib said at his press conference that the Barisan Nasional has the support of the four former Pakatan Perak assemblypersons - three will be "BN-friendly" Independents, while Nasarudin will rejoin Umno.
Najib will meet the Perak Sultan as soon as possible. He said it is up to the sultan to decide on Nizar's request for dissolution of the assembly.
"All three state representatives - Jamaluddin, Osman and Hee - have submitted resignation letters to their former parties and have informed the sultan of their resignation."They have also given BN the mandate to select a new menteri besar for Perak," he said.


Nasarudin has denied the claim that he had been abducted. Najib added that under Article 16(6) of the Perak constitution, if the menteri besar loses the confidence of the assembly members, he is required to resign, together with all the exco members under him.
However the final decision now hinges on the Sultan of Perak - if he accedes to a Pakatan request for dissolution or allows BN to form the new government
