The True Face of Malaysia's Protector of Democratcy

This is Ambiga; a face that is synonymous with the Bersih movement in Malaysia.

Will there be True Democracy in Malaysia?

This picture is a reflection of her contemplating the future for Malaysia.

An Uneasy Win for BN in the 13th GE

The Kelana Jaya Post Rally

It would not be as sweet but if they had won the popular vote, BN would have come out smelling like a bouquet of roses.

Alas, it was not to be as they came short;below the crucial 50% support mark.

The Batu Kawan Stadium Stand-off on 11 May

And so stories are afloat of a stolen election with the Pakatan Rakyat whipping up a storm of protests and holding rallies in major cities to protest their stolen victory, so it seems.

The Signs of the Times?

These pictures of massive post-electoral support by the disgruntled voters and a New York cartoon depicting a very much questioned BN victory must be a roaring laugh to many.

LKS-The Groom Guru

This is a fine example of grooming the younger generation for both a civil activist and political  role in the new IPAD  society of Malaysia as we move forward towards 2020.

And the doyen of DAP, Kit Siang has about done that.

The Next Generation DAP Leaders

Imagine from Tan Cheng Kim to Zairil Khir to Kasturi Patto.

And now we have newly minted Political Secretary to LKS, Dyna Sofya.

A Brand New Hope

All smiles to the victors!

Can These Become Winning Votes?

The Daughter Power

The turn-out at most Pakatan ceramahs are humongous.

These photos tell you that if all those in the audience are voters, there could be a swing towards Pakatan.

Potential Dragon Slayer in Nusajaya

But it is not so since many could be curious listeners or are non voters from other voting areas.

Be that as it may, it certainly pose a challenge optically to BN.

Kit Siang in Broken Bangle

As the day is not done and there is still at least 6 campaigning days to go, things may be more telling.

Ex MB Selangor in PAS Campaign

We wait in anticipation of what the battle royale will be like in most of these hot spots and whether the mother of all elections will be maintained by BN or wrestled away by the potential PR candidates with their juggernaut audience.

The Kelantan Factor in Putrajaya- A Mass of Faithful

New Prince in Town?

The Friday prayers today (26 April 2013) was absolutely revealing.

Tok Guru and Husam praying in Putrajaya

It reverberated unashamedly with human emotions  let loose.

Did it unmasked the sombre sobriety of the civil servants of Putrajaya and show their true colour at last when Tok Guru comes to the Putrajaya main mosque for Friday solat?

Or is there a new prince in town that they will crown very soon?

A Sea of Support Never Seen Before 

Will such support and runaway feelings turn into victory for Husam against Tengku Nan at the moment of truth on 5 May?

The world is watching Putrajaya.

A Prince Comes to Town

Will it return every thing in balance to BN or will the moon rise in Putrajaya?

A Matter of Perception?

Are these mirages or does it reflect the signs of the times?

An ocean of eager humanity

Two different perspective.

Inglorious food? 

What do we have in store  when the polling stations closed and the counting begins?

The 60,000 Strong Diners at Westport

One Malaysia in Westport on 20 April 2013

At 5.30 pm on 20 April 2013 we set on our journey by chartered bus  to Westport, Pulau Indah  in Port Klang.

Took us 90 minutes to get in as the jam was humongous!

There were many Malay youths on motorbikes waving BN flags and they were guiding us into the Westport complex.

We saw Najib for PM posters all along the way into Westport.

He looked dapper and debonair!

After a messy search for our table B1937 under the Blue Balloon which we never did find, our PJ group plumped ourselves onto a few empty tables. Talk about MCA organisation!

Food started close to 8 pm. For such a large crowd many restaurants were involved in preparing the food.

Food was great especially the herbal chicken and the nestum fried prawns.

There were song and dance galore during the dinner but no one really cared.

Then it was the turn for Michelle Yeoh to speak. She looks pretty and I guess she spoke what should be spoke fittingly in such a gathering.

Najib was the penultimate speaker but there was little response from the crowd to his speech nor his exultation of Satu Malaysia. They were  too far away to hear as the field was pretty large, stretching from one end to another.

To many, it was a mammoth event with imported singers from Taiwan.

Most enjoyed the food, I can see.

Well, every function has to end.

For this event, I wonder what was its intended purpose.

If it had wanted a gung-ho, performance in front of PM, the MCA and its organisers  should have marshaled at least the MCA youth divisions from all districts in Selangor. Dressed them like Chinese soldiers of old!

That would really put the punch into this function.

But, alas all you brought to this gathering were senior gentlemen,ladies and kids too!

For their next gathering they should learn from these tips and cues.

Bring on the voting youths!
