Whenever anyone resigns from PKR or Pakatan Rakyat, the opposition supporters always say it is because these people are ex-Umno or ex-Barisan Nasional people; so what do you expect? These ex-Umno or Ex-BN people are not reliable or honest and eventually they betray the opposition cause and go back to their old party, is the argument we are given. Does this argument apply to all ex-Umno or ex-BN people in the opposition who are yet to leave the opposition to go back to the ruling party?

LKS has just made a statement that even though three out of the four Chinese majority areas were won by BN, the overall number (or percentage?) of Chinese voting for PAS has increased. This means Chua Soi Lek is not a winner as someone suggested. I hope LKS is right.

Your question of does it apply or not is that my reply is a big NO> Ever since the SEP fiasco Anwar has been making some major mistakes in fielding and accepting candidates of dubious characters and loyalty. The frustration is that he is now taking it this out on the good ones too. Zaid could have been placated if the right approach had been used and a few others who were in the first instance sincere. Otherwise immediately after the 2008 election some of these people would have jumped shipped like the great prostitute of Jelapang. My assessment of Anwar is that he is in a thick fog...lost.

Dear RPK ,

This new alternative way of reaching your ardent fans for more inputs from you by way of voice recordings is very apt for easy and faster absorption to reduce eye fatigues , etc ! Pardon me for requesting that you will kindly readjust your way of imparting your thoughts through this new approach by my reasons below :

1. Like me , most of us poor pensioners and retirees have very limited liquidity and can only afford a
simple yet cheap i-pad which has maximum volume that remains to be desired after much tunings.

2. Your style of delivering your speech , admittedly with very sexy voice , has a constant habit of your
voice tapering off with reduced sliding volumes at the end of most sentences .

3. Please if you may , to maximize all the volumes of the gadgets you use every time you speak into the
microphone. This way we get to be able to adjust the volumes on our side to enable us to hear you loud
and clear .

Your due consideration on my suggestions will be greatly appreciated . Thank you and hope you have a happy family CNY re-union dinner. CHEERS.

I am among the lucky few, in that I have never been an Umno or BN member so there is no question of me going back to Umno.

PR, wart and all, is the the only hope we have for toppling BN. Yet people lose heart so easily and start condemning PR without realising that it is going to kill PR faster. This makes one very angry.

Why am I getting the feeling that the MT commenters are now beginning to support BN? Is it this easy for you guys to lose your spirit and soul? Pathetic. I will never vote BN ever no matter how much PR is demonised.

3 out of 4 Chinese areas in Tenang went to BN. Chua Soi Lek is a proven winner.

Chinese and Indians are not so stupid to demolish MCA and MIC totally, without first seeing Malays demolish Umno conclusively. The Tenang by-elections says the BN partnership continues to be strong. One does not throw away a 60 years old partnership just because of a hairbrained guy like Anwar or a foolish lady like Normala. We would rather vote and send her home to the kitchen where she belong in that attire.

By a fair and just way one need to see why the Chinese or non Muslims rejected PAS. The Chinese are a peculiar lot. They know what is fairness and they also wants to proper. Who do you think meet their needs? BN of course even though BN maybe the most corrupt in the world . Who cares if their needs and desire are met? So what am I talking about?
Is an Islamic state fair? Can the people prosper under Islamic laws? Talk is cheap and the blind would would keep on talking and not see the facts of other Islamic countries. Millions of Muslims are migrating out of Islamic countries and moving to fair and just and prosperous nations. Its a fact. Open your eyes PAS and PKR . Why PKR? Because PKR is a supporter of PAS's Islamic state by their silence .
Only one can trust DAP ,as for now to deliver . Can all accept a Chinese prime minister from DAP? This is the question truly all Malaysians must consider if we want to advance. Only by this would all come to maturity, that we are all human, no matter what color you are. And the most important thing is that GOD is our friend.

Blame it all on Anwar who practiced the way of Umno. He had not really renew the minds of his followers but only bent on winning Putrajaya or revenge? His followers are also like the supporters of Umno, blind allegiance and shallow minded by their sour grapes syndromes..
Only when the oppositions becomes clean, efficient and faithful to the people, would Pakatan be respected and wins the people's hearts. God would surely support such a party When God is not a supporter , one's chance of winning would be in vain. Can check with the Bible anytime and see for yourself. Those who wins by cheating or by force , always fall in a short while.

Today's result at Tenang proves it all.. When PR lost in Hulu Selangor, the attack against the Indian voters there was astonishing. The many comments made by cocksuckers like Hellosunshine, Chungkiaw and many other Chinese twats here calling the Indian voters pariahs, Hindraf dogs, alcoholics and many other animal appellations for refraining from voting is a testimony to the racism that is ingrained within the Chinese mentality whether you are MCA or DAP, don't make no difference. Now we have the majority of Chinese in Tenang who practically handed over victory to BN in a nice silver platter. How can we address these people? Traitors, Dogs?? You tell me ..
