TO KKK:

You’re right that PAS wasn’t as powerful as UMNO and probably is not now. But given its victory now and the momentum it has gained, it is going from strength to strength and when they are powerful enough, they will be much more dangerous than UMNO.

And we don’t want to contribute to the empowerment of PAS.

After 50 years of independence, we as citizens of this country shall be matured enough to form another coalition party namely BARISAN RAKYAT comprising mainly PKR, DAP and PAS to have check and balance in the Parliamentary, judiciary and government administration. This country needs a strong coalition party besides Barisan Nasional just like many other developed nations around the world in order to progress further.

8 March 2008 marked an important day in the national history. Never before BN in its entire history beaten so badly except in 1969. Even with all the irregularities in the EC, people’s power has successed in bring down the corrupted, oppressive, manipulative force that has hindered the nation progress in the last 50 years.

Let’s work together irrespective of race and religion for a better Malaysia so that our children’s children can continue to call this place home.

Fellow Malaysians let us not to forget the 5 fundamental principles of RUKUN NEGARA written by our forefathers that has kept the country united since day one:-
Kepercayaan Kepada Tuhan
Kesetiaan Kepada Raja dan Negara
Keluhuran Perlembagaan
Kedaulatan Undang-undang
Kesopanan dan Kesusilaan

Every readers in this blog should recite and remember the 5 Fundamental Principle of Rukun Negara so that coalition of Barisan Rakyat can be built on a strong foundation. Let us not get carried away by the non important issues like whether Poh Kuan stepped down before election to who’s going to be the next MB of Perak and forget how important to form BR to counter BN in the coming days. This is for the sake of our’s children’s children.

Let’s put all our differences, egos, self-serving attitude aside and help to build up a new coalition party call Barisan Rakyat.

GOD BLESS MALAYSIAN! WELL DONE FELLOW MALAYSIANS IN THE 12th GENERAL ELECTION!

‘It will be very difficult to clear the mess created last 50 years but if the bleeding,wastage,stealing and raping of the country’s resources can be minimised substantially, I consider it will be a success in the next 5 years.’cmbss.
Syabas to you, cmbss.I find your comment the most mature and realistic.Fantastic judgement in your assessment and must have been borne of wisdom.I would also go further to say that even to minimise all those you mention above is herculean.The expectations of a lot of commenters here are not only unrealistic but also the bulk of them do not know what they are talking about.A simple example is to change the rule that mayor is to be elected.Can DAP (don’t talk about winning two thirds majority,they can’t even form a government with a simple majority ie have 112 seats in parliment) change the constitution? Fighting corruption requires not only whistleblowers but also the police,judiciary and the media playing their part and would they do their part knowing that all of them are beholden to UMNO?Even in carrying out their manifestos, I am dead sure that UMNO will definitely be throwing spanners into the works to make them look bad.Don’t forget running a state is no different from running a company.It requires funds and funds come from the Federal government!1
Lim Guan Eng might have made an initial mistake, a hasty one at that, in declaring cancellation of parking and hawker’s licenses (he might be thinking in terms of amnesty granted every now and then by governments to their long staying illegals) but if he were to pick himself up and quickly bounce back I would then see this as mistake made while learning to be a good CM.He is human after all,we must grant him that.
Please have faith in LKS.I am sure he is a much more honourable person than the ones we see in BN component parties.I am sure he also is fully aware that there are a lot of temptations involved now that DAP is in the driving seat in 3 states plus Federal Territory.Give them at least a year for us to judge whether they walk the talk.IT IS CERTAINLY TOO EARLY TO BE ADVISING THEM OR WORST STILL THROW BRICKBATS AT THEM.The swearing-in in Perak and Selangor has not even started.

Gud Morning Guys

Aiyooohhh…so many comments to reads (more scrolling). Anyway congrats to BR for winning 5 states and deny 2/3 BN majority.

Please don’t fight among yourself on small issues. This is probably because BR supporters are too excited. Calm down. Just 4 days after the election. Let the BR leaders to discuss among themselves on the course of actions.

I am not benefited from NEP even I’m a malay because I don’t like dirty politics/corruption. There are also some chinese contractors who manage to secure government contracts thru proxy and bribery. There are rich malay contractors using their political power to secure contracts as well.

And I myself as a malay muslim contractor in penang is LOOKING FORWARD to the state government lead by DAP to deliver better results than the BN. Is BR (PKR/PKR/DAP) is no better than BN, ther you and me are the one who are being cheated by political leaders. Then I’ll be among the rakyat who will campaign for a better leadership.

Give sometimes for BR leadership to show their true colours. But not too long coz they might sleep like pak lah also.

I think DAP/PKR/PAS should now work towards having local council elections.But now they should take action to undo the wrongs committed by the local councils.For example,MBPJ which has misused funds as revealed by Nades from ‘The SUN’.MBPJ under the current administration lacks transparency.The council imposed over rated assessment charges on condominiums and faced a lawsuit by owners of a condominium in PJ last year.But the court proceeding was postponed.Besides this issue,MBPJ should be proactive in solving the woes and problems faced by PJ residents.
The new state government should deal with the shortcomings caused by MBPJ as a priority because this local council is one of the few heavyweights in the country.

Maybe we should have a time-out for 100 days and let them get down to serious work?

After the time-out we can give feed-back.
