Ijok By-Election: PM Assisting Campaign?
I guess BN’s getting desperate enough to warrant asking the PM himself to help campaign in the Ijok by-election.
If you take a step back and think about this, it’s frankly ridiculous. A Prime Minister should be above concerning himself with a small state assembly seat. At most, a PM should only deal with the BN Leader of the states, like Khir Toyo in this case. Not be part of the campaign of one of its state candidates. He should have many other more important ‘Prime Ministerial’ things to attend to.
Anyway, the fact that the PM was roped into Ijok shows that BN sees the possibility of defeat there, or winning by a very slim majority. But reports are saying the infamously apathetic Chinese voters are probably backing BN again this time, which would probably tip this election in BN’s favour. My bloody Chinese brethrens…. I wonder how hard badly BN must hentam them before they start protesting?
We’ll see later today when the results are announced.
WTF r u talking bout? The Chinese definitely swung their votes away from BN just like the last Sarawak election. It is the Indians who voted overwhelmingly for BN. They won 1500 votes more than PKR in Indian majority areas! With another 300 from Malay areas.
Please stop being so holier than thou on us Chinese who chose not to leave the country. Just because you threw in the towel doesn’t give you the right to preach.
