Following the Election Results

This was about midnight on Election day where people gather to watch announcement of results in a coffee shop. This one was in Desa Pandan near my place.

There was a loud boo every time the BN won a seat. I am told that those people in the coffee shop were Umno election workers. The loudest boo was heard when a photo of Shahrizat was shown.

What's with these people.

This was written by a friend in response to my write up above:

IO,

What's with the mainstream media? When Al-Jazeera at 9pm stated that BN lost Penang, RTM and TV3 were still harping on BN wins elsewhere (like Sabah & Sarawak), and not even showing results coming in from Kedah, Perak and Selangor until much later. RTM1 showed "live" telecast of announcements of results by EC officials about 3 hours after the real announcements. Samy Vellu was conspicuously absent in Sg Siput during the "live" announcement.

This morning at 7:30am only one Chinese daily was available for me to read (I could read the party symbols and the figures), the mainstream papers were only on sale after 8:30am. Perhaps they had to stop the presses as the stories already printed weren't the real things!

With newbies like Gwo Burne and Nurul Izzah becoming giant-killers in BN strongholds, a wave of change is taking place in matured voters' thinking. As for Kelate, I can say divine intervention worked, and it wasn't that PAS was shaky, they were strong, the fact that they still sought divine intervention shows their determination to govern the state unlike the corrupt practices of others. And what of BN's tahun merawat Kelate? So engrossed in "helping" kelantanese, Pak Lah forgot about his own backyard and lost his state, Selangor, Kedah and surprise, surprise, Perak! Kelantanese don't need UMNO thank you very much.

I live in Kelana Jaya, and around me state and parliamentary seats didn't go BN's way. Perhaps Khir Toyo has made Selangor a developed state, so developed that the people don't need his developers any more, heh heh :)

I now look forward to MBPJ resurfacing the roads in SS4A in the proper way after 20 years, and not just resurface to the houses owned by UMNO/MCA officials.

Also JAIS who have been closing down mosques and appointing their own mosque committees from members of the ruling party should now reopen those mosques, but of course continue to appoint committee members from the ruling party....... the BA :)

best regards,
