Following his dismissal as Deputy PM and UMNO member, Anwar Ibrahim started the reformasi movement as his political platform.
After 25 years, he finally managed to step into the Prime Minister's Office he was involved in the development of Putrajaya. Over time, he has articulated on the repeated over many elections of the corrective programs he wish to undertake.
The social media is now regurgitating the promises and manifesto items he made under the then Pakatan Rakyat at GE 12 and 13 and later the Pakatan Harapan's for GE14.
However, Anwar is not expected to deliver in abolishing PTPTN student loan, 20% royalty for Sabah and Sarawak, change the Wang Ehsan for certain states in Peninsular to royalty, immediate cut in the retail oil prices by 50 sen and the list can be longer.
Understandably, the government is in a slippery situation constrained by debt and revenue shortfall. Many of the promises have rightly been pointed out by then BN government of the day as ridiculous.
To be more rational and mature in our politics, lets ignore the usually mindless and deceptive campaign sloganeering. Election promises are sensational but seldom delivered.
But the 25 years of chanting, "Reformasi!" is ideological and cannot be put at bay.
