These are ministers that I have reserved some respect for (in no particular order):
- Mohd Zaid Ibrahim (for being a liberal)
- Amirsham A. Aziz (for his professional experience)
- L. Devamany (for having a conscience)
- Nor Mohamed Yakcop (for economic-literacy)
- Syed Hamid Albar (I seem to like him for some unidentifiable reason)
- Rais Yatim (for his academic qualification)
- Maximus Ongkili (for daring to speak up)
- Khaled Nordin (for just being a nice guy)
- Shahrir Samad (for having a conscience)
I hope these individuals will bring sense to the new Cabinet.
The following should however resign immediately before they embarrass the country:
- Abdullah Ahmad Badawi (for inconsistency and incompetence)
- Nazri Aziz (for un-parliamentarian behavior)
- Johari Baharom (for possibly being corrupt and blatant abuse of the OSA)
- Nor Omar (for issuing stupid statements)
- Muhammad Muhd Taib (for corruption as well as for frivolous police reports)

Syed Hamid Albar – Never liked this immature bald fella. I saw him live in Sydney 2 years ago, zooming around the city with his limo.
Did you know the guy cried when he lost his cabinet position under Mahathir once?
Jeez.
Unbelievables: Nazri Aziz and Muhammad Muhd Taib… Wtf???
Shahrir Samad is one of the few decent UMNO guys. He should really move into PKR. UMNO’s no place for a guy like him. Rais Yatim should gather some backing to maybe take over from Abdullah. He’s another of the few good UMNO men.
Syed Hamid Albar (I seem to like him for some unidentifiable reason)
Entertainment value?
