(The Malay Mail) – Johor PKR chief confident, gives full support to Lim in Gelang Patah

TMM: Are you upset that DAP stalwart Lim Kit Siang is replacing you in Gelang Patah?

Chua Jui Meng : If I were upset, I would not be making all these statements or speak to you. Previously I said in my press conference that I welcome and honour Lim in Gelang Patah. I even told the 40,000 people during the announcement to fully support him. I told them that Lim is a leader of integrity and had even sacrificed his comfortable seat in Ipoh Timur to contest in Gelang Patah.

TMM: How was your relationship with Johor DAP and PAS after all the controversy?

CJM: Excellent. I have a good relationship with PR in Johor. Today, we went along together for my election campaign at Kampung Abdullah, Jementah and other places to meet the public. The DAP candidate, Pang Hock Leong (former Bekok assemblyman) whom I will be replacing also spoke during a press conference and expressed full support for me.

TMM: There is speculation that some members of the public especially DAP voters in Segamat aren’t supporting you as a candidate. Is that true?

CJM: It’s not true, it’s only a rumour. As I said earlier, Pang cleared the issue by speaking to the people in Segamat on that matter.

TMM: As the Johor PKR chief what are your expectations for 13th general election in Johor?

CJM: My expectations! That PR will at least win a minimum of 13 or 14 seats from the 26 parliamentary seats in Johor. As for the state seats, we stand a chance to form a government by winning a minimum of 29 from 56 seats. But I’m not going to tell you which seats we consider as winnable seats.

TMM: What’s next for you, and what will you bring to Segamat?

CJM: I ought to win the Segamat seat. My message for them during the campaign is change and reform. However, most importantly, my emphasis is that people are the focus of our government’s activities, we will not allow cronyism or family networks to interfere.
