Voters must not use a by-election to voice their frustration by staying away or choosing the opposition, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. Quoted from the Star article on Wednesday 11 April 2007.
Excuse me, but it seems obvious to me that by-elections are the perfect avenue to show your displeasure. If BN wins, nothing changes but if BN loses, it would be a slap to the face. A call to buck up. For all the citizens who are deathly afraid of change, well since BN would still hold the majority, you don’t have much to worry.
on a different note, this reuters article was featured on Jeff Ooi. I find it interesting to realize, of course I am sure many of you guys out there would have already known. But it is new news to me.. that Pak Lah doesnt need to call for an election this year, he can wait for mid next year but hohoho Anwar is free to contest by April 2008.
Although Anwar isnt half as liberal as I would wish him to be, he does seem to be the strongest threat to BN. So I say, NO ELECTIONS!!! lets wait for Anwar.
However, I do realize that isn’t going to happen unless Pak Lah really is an idiot. So lets just hope that we can fight this war. We all know they are gonna play dirty. Lets just hope enough of US are brave enough that no matter what they do, they cannot stop us.
