Permatang Pauh: of intimidation and money politics..

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak reminded the Indian and Chinese communities in Permatang Pauh to support Barisan Nasional in return for giving them these:
1. AIMST university. Barisan Nasional champion Indian and Chinese communities’ causes as they have been neglected by the opposition. To support this argument Najib said BN government set up Asian Institute Of Medicine, Science and Technology.
2. Aid to schools. Government had announced aid for three Tamil primary schools and six Chinese schools.
3. License. Government approved scrap metal collector’s license for Indians in Permatang Pauh.

Now, what is all these? Money politics or threats? Let's see what our controversial Election Commission or our even more controversial police force has to say about this... Perhaps, they (dogs) would sing it favorably to their master's tune. Again, all these would eventually end up as broken promises. Like one of our blogger commented: We might as well have a by-election every 6 months to get them to throw money at us.
Police 'birds' swoop in on campaign

Fear and election results have always been synonymous, and in the high stakes by-election coming up in Permatang Pauh, the fear factor is building up.

Police helicopters have been filling the night air since nomination day.
On Monday - for the third night straight - a police helicopter circled Taman Ciku in Bukit Mertajam where a Pakatan Rakyat rally was in progress. There were some 800 persons in the crowd that night.
Police have confirmed the one hour episode as routine surveillance patrol, but residents have said that they are not used to aerial incursions.

This is an obvious Act of Power Abuse on BN part using state owned machinery to allay fears onto the Permatang Pauh folks. Don't give us all those shit about this being a routine surveillance. Do we get all these surveillance 365 days a year? And my message to the police is: Don't court around with danger as you put the people's lives at risk. Afterall, our country do have a history of helicopters going down for no reason. Thanks to BN administration habitual purchase of junks at state of art prices.
So listen here carefully, Najib. If you have to use dirty tactics through intimidation, do it by all means but do find a better way without putting innocent lives at risk. We, The Rakyat, are different from Altantuya... We will Hold you Responsible should anything goes wrong here.
My message here..

Salam ..

Berkanaan dengan artikel 'Permatang Pauh: of intimidation and money politics..'. saya rasa ini bukan money politics, saudara..

Sbb pengundi mempunyai sebab untuk mengundi sesuatu pihak tu, contohnyer kalau ada pilihanraya kita nak undi mana satu, mesti lah yang ada kepentingan kat kawasan kita.

Kalau BN nak bagi kemudahan2 macam ni kat diorang, itu adalah satu kebaikan, terpulanglah kepada warga PERMATANG PAUH yang tentukan.

TQ.. ;)

Saudara Permatang Pauh,

Salam

Kemudahan2 yang diberi adalah tanggungjawab kerajaan secara automatik tetapi jikalau ia diberi atau dijanjikan semasa pilihan raya, tentulah adalah sebarang motif yang disyaki rakyat.

Walau bagaimana pun, hikmati lah kemudahan2 yang diberi atau dijanjikan sekarang tetapi jangan sampai tahap nak lacurkan bangsa dan kaum, dan mengkhianatkan Negara Malaysia.

TQ:)
