If so, it will mean that at least one or two minister post will have to be offered to the opposition party.
Which posts will the opposition want to take, and why ?
Will the opposition parties also declare upfront before the GE, that what will they do with the million dollar salary, if being offered to take up the minister post. Will they pledge to donate most of it to the charity ?
Heard rumor that Parliament dissolve date is 20 Apr 11, GE is 30 Apr 11. Maybe about right, 8 days for election rally and 1 day for cooling day. If so, have all the plans been finalized yet for the opposition parties ? Don't be caught off guard again this time round. I will want to see at least one or two opposition ministers, to check the cabinet !!
