I know a lot of people find this very inspirational and see this as some sort of evidence of his superb leadership attributes.

Personally from what I can see in the past 24 hours since Anwar became the PM, I am having a dimmer view of him by the hour. There're way too many theatrics performed with the media and social platforms, i.e. this sort of feel good gesture that mean nothing and solves nothing for Malaysia but perhaps earn a few cheap mass brownie points.

I get the feeling that he's more interested in maintaining a certain public persona then actually getting anything done. The PH has probably also conceded vast amounts of political capital to the BN behind the scenes in order to secure his premiership which will greatly impede his ability to tackle the myriad of challenges facing Malaysia.

Do such theatrics necessarily means Anwar is not a good leader? No, but a leader who devotes a disproportionate amount of his first day in office on social and mainstream media dishing out "slice of life" sharing and meaningless rhetoric pandering to the masses ain't a good sign.
