Hulu Selangor P94

Dust settled... result was in.

The corrupt won the battle by spending huge amount on Malaysian's tax money, YET they have nothing to be proud of. They know it well, and the cost of their win (so they called it victory) is enormous.

PR supporters and comrades,

Don't lose hope. You lost a battle, not the war.

You have countless of battles to fight on, and the next one -- Sibu.

And, the next one, next one, next one...

With all your persistence and courage, we will win the war!

Hulu Selangor — Anwar Ibrahim

APRIL 26 — I thank the workers and volunteers from Pakatan Rakyat including our friends in DAP and PAS who supported our candidate in Hulu Selangor, Datuk Zaid Ibrahim.

Tens of thousands of Malaysians joined us to show the people of Hulu Selangor that Pakatan Rakyat is committed to a Malaysia where all of its citizens have the right to peace, justice, and prosperity. I am thankful for the tremendous support you have shown.

Your commitment to change is commendable.

One setback shall not divert us from our goal. Any change worth making is hard and will be fought at every turn. While it doesn’t take away the sting of this loss, there is no road to real change without setbacks along the way.

Over RM100 million was spent by BN to win a thin majority in Hulu Selangor: that amounts to RM65,000 per person. Dozens of ministers campaigned every day; the Election Commission appears guilty once again of violating its mandate to ensure fair elections; and the police intimidated our supporters and there are reports that they even prevented some voters from reaching the polling stations.

This means that Barisan Nasional has learned nothing since the March 2008 election. Character assassination, racism, bribery and brute force may help to win one or two by-elections. But the people of Malaysia will not be deceived.

Our country still faces the same challenges which cannot be resolved by dirty politics or a few catchy slogans. The economy is lagging, jobs are scarce and our education system remains mediocre at best.

We must do more to address the plight of the poor and marginalised people throughout Malaysia. And we must bring credibility back to the Federal government as we have started to do in the Pakatan States.

We increased our popular support in Hulu Selangor. We know we have to do more to reach out to our supporters in the rural heartland, particularly the Felda settlements. I am committed to this challenge and my resolve is unwavering.

Let us look ahead to the next contest and work to bring change to Sarawak.

Licking up!

Shit! What is this fella doing? He's licking up!

“Kiss his hand? When did I kiss his hand? Show me where I did that,” he exclaimed, looking miffed when asked at an unplanned press conference in Ladang Kerling near here.

Errr... What are you doing here in this photo then?

Or... may be he was not kissing... but licking!

“I have been in the MIC for 26 years. I am not someone new in the system. I know what needs to be done,” he firmly said.

Oh Yes! He knows exactly how to kiss and suck up to be an obedient lapdog.

And can you readers see the difference of the two photos above?

So, how can you support and vote for someone who did all these?

• defended the ultra racist PERKASA, [which against 1Malaysia]
• licked the hand of "Malay 1st, Malaysian 2nd" DPM, and [which against 1Malaysia]
• betrayed his own community [also against 1Malaysia]

The Chinese Lapdogs

How a lap dog show their acts when squeezed by their master?

But it is even shameful to compare these people to dogs, as dogs are cute animals. Though Muslims shun dogs, but that is different.

Here you witness yet again, how the Chinese MCA leaders continue to kiss and suck up to their puppet master just to get some spilled crumbs... hoping to be UMNO's super-cronies. Pathetic!

""It's not easy for us. Every time we enter a new village, we got scolded. Therefore, we have to improve our strategy by getting more leaders from the MCA divisions throughout the country to help us," said a grassroot leader."

Do they even realise why they get scolded?

""We have not received much support from the Chinese community, but with the 1Malaysia and other policies introduced by the PM, we hope to change their feelings. There are small groups among the Chinese community who are backing the PM and we hope these groups will grow bigger by polling day," Liow said."

Hello! MCA is no longer relevant to your Chinese folks. And what is 1Malaysia? "Malay First, Malaysian Second"

"Besides organising dinners, they have alo engaged the Chinese voters through what they term as "sembang petang" (evening chats) with small groups of about 15 to 20 voters in the Chinese new villages. "

They still think the voters are dummies that giving out some candies and sweets, they can charm the voters into submission?

"MCA deputy president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said national as well as local leaders would meet them to explain the government's policies, the 1Malaysia spirit and the need to speed up the implementation of fairer policies by Najib."

Ha ha... and where is your celebrity Porn Star President? Why is he not showing his face?

BUT, the crucial question remains... while MCA claimed to support the removal of ISA and UMNO determined to keep it, so why MCA continues to suck up to UMNO?

It must be like MIC, where UMNO is the master who decides on MIC candidates.

An Indian now defending the racist PERKASA?

It is very sad to hear that an Indian candidate (from MIC) who is sucking up to the powerful.

And it is probably of his action, he gets the nomination from the ultra UMNO to be BN candidate for Hulu Selangor seat.

MIC and Samy Vellu failed miserably in defending their own choice of candidate (even with an Ultimatum to DPM Muhyiddin), with UMNO playing hardball in the choosing. So much for the equal partnership in BN coalition.

Malaysian Indians have been marginalised by UMNO for over half century, and will continue to be with Indians who sell their souls.

"Kamal’s defence of this ultra movement is untenable but not unexpected as after all, this is a candidate who said that he would “take back the federal seat and deliver it to Prime Minister Najib Razak as gift for his first year in office.” Like a housecat dragging in an offering of a captured mouse.

Hold Your Hourse

Make sense?

Sounds right as witnessed all these while what the UMNO "grassroots" had done in discrediting those not in sync with their top brass. You be the judge.

"As the shootout for Hulu Selangor draws near, the dirty campaign of UMNO has begun in full swing. Predictably, UMNO are not focusing on the issues of the rakyat. UMNO are focused on the only thing they know, and that is: to spread lies and misinformation."

"On the 16th of October 2004, I was charged for money politics. I found this charge to be utterly ridiculous, because I won the seat uncontested. There was no opponent. So, how could I be charged for money politics, when there is no contest? But within UMNO, I guess anything is possible."

Any Body, So Long As...

"I suggest you all to take a back seat and think with a clear mind logically. What is the root cause for such economical divide. There are rich Indians and poor ones, same goes for rich Malays and poor ones and so forth. By forcing PR to appoint an Indian as their rep for Hulu Selangor, I find it an absurd move. Me as a Malaysian First and an Indian second, does not condone such calls nor do I support it. I stick to my claims that any Malaysian rep who can execute the tasks and resolve the multi-racial constituency problems and issues will get my vote.

By Babulal

A Malaysian First, an Indian Second

"

"There are many areas where under BN control villages have been demolished without any compensation in the past and no one could voice out due to their monopoly and intimidating political ways and it involved Malays, Indians, Chinese, Sabahans, Sarawakians, etc .... not only Indians – but all races in Malaysia have had in some point in time been bullied by BN."

Stabbing your Boss... Oops!

Discrediting 1Malaysia

Muhyiddin just did a disservice to his boss, Najib’s 1Malaysia. Contrasting glaringly to “People First” in 1Malaysia slogan, (which commonly interpreted as treating all Malaysians fairly,) Muhyiddin declared he is “Malay First, Malaysian Second”.

Muhyiddin’s admission to and declaration of being "Malay First" contemplating to the fact that government will continue to place preferential treatments and priorities to Malays over other races in Malaysia.

Najib's 1Malaysia slogan, will therefore, remains just a slogan, without the support from his deputy.


Malay First, Malaysian Second

"I am Malay first but being Malay doesn't mean I am not Malaysian," said Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.


So, this confirms that the DPM thinks and practices very much differently than the PM Najib in 1Malaysia concept of transforming the government into treating all Malaysian fairly. No wonder there are many around Najib spoke and acted in contrast to the vision laid down by Najib.

And is Najib the only person working hard to promote 1Malaysia campaign which supposedly accords equality to all Malaysians? Looks like a lone ranger.

'How can I say I'm Malaysian first and Malay second? All the Malays will shun me... and it's not proper,' said Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.

So, in order to gain popularity from Malays, Muhyiddin walks the racial line and does not mind others shun him.

Will Najib ask Muhyiddin to resign for causing such a boo boo?
