Soon after my blog: Election by December? went up, a Little Bird from the mainstream media SMS-ed to advise me that the poll is likely to be on in March, not December.

Earlier the vernacular press were speculating on a year-end date as Barisan Nasional elected representatives and senators had been summoned to attend a pre-election briefing organised by the newly formed Forum Wakil Rakyat Malaysia (Fowram), and scheduled for October 21.

However, by noon today, Fowram issued a statement via Bernama announcing that the briefing, to be opened by BN Chief Abdullah Badawi, has been postponed indefinitely.

That newsroom Little Bird may be reading tea=leaf correctly, and I often respect his views.

I did ask him whether the Son-in-Law would want to wait till after April 19, to bury Anwar Ibrahim alive in polls. No answer so far.
