Read My Lips - Man in the Mirror


Azmin Ali, Deputy President of PKR (Parti Keadilan Rakyat) cum Minister of Economic Affairs in Malaysia, was allegedly caught in a video when he was having homosexual act with a younger man. Although he belongs to Pakatan Harapan key members, he is not one of the cleaner leaders. Some people may not care about his sexual preference but many care why there were many young men who got rich in recent years in Azmin's constituency when he was the Menteri Besar or Chief Minister of the state.

He is known to be a master of political maneuver. He has been calling for investigation into the perpetrator who has produced and distributed the video. Of course, he has denied that the older man in the video is him. The video has been confirmed by Malaysian Multimedia and Communication Commission as authentic and not edited. You can see his response when he is asked about the video:



Is this a response of a typical innocent man? You can see that he is fighting hard to hold back his emotion and remain as cool as possible on surface. His troubled face perhaps has given away a lot about the truth. 

For those who wonder how he has come up with 'man in the mirror', please watch the below song by the late Michael Jackson:



As regards 'read my lips', it was made famous by former American president, George HW Bush in 1988:



Azmin has really not come up with any original catchy phrases.
