POLitical POWer!

.
From learning Critical Thinking, I realized that politics link the Ad hominem circumstantial Fallacy with their statements or speeches almost too frequently. Without any offence, today's article (link above) about Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim stressing that Malaysia belong to all races amidst National Day. Simultaneously, he also mentioned the spirit of Merdeka is absent when the nation is still ruled by its own community, before concluding that Malays should support leaders who detest corruption and treat all communities equally. It apparently is one technique of attacking the government's weakness and indirectly persuading the people to pour in their support for him towards being the next Prime Minister. Honestly, who at his stature wouldn't do that?
