00:00 There's more than that.

00:02 There's more than just JAHID stepping down.

00:05 You probably need to change the top five Supreme Council members.

00:12 Jeneri Amir, a senior fellow of the National Council of Professors,

00:15 said a change of AMLO's top leader alone will not reclaim lost military support for the party.

00:21 He said the party must undergo an extended period of reform

00:24 to recover from its dismal performance at the six-state elections last Saturday.

00:29 Jeneri also said AMLO will need at least two years to restore its battered image

00:34 as its newfound collaboration with the AP had further alienated its grassroots.

00:39 Immunising the AP for how many decades?

00:43 More than five decades.

00:45 Now they're working with the AP. How do you justify that?

00:49 However, as Mel Tayyip of University Science Malaysia said,

00:52 ZAHID should resign just like Dr Mahathir Mohamad did in 2003

00:56 after BN's relatively poor showing at the 1999 general election.

01:01 As Mil said his successor, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi's track record as Mr Kain,

01:05 propelled the party to win more than 90% of the seats in the 2004 general election.

01:11 He added that BN's resurgence at the time was due to this change of leadership.
