ELECTION WATCH (7): Building Political Dynasties

Equally trendy in Barisan Nasional and Opposition parties, so is it a surprise at all that Malaysians find themselves caught in between THE DEVIL AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA?
Worse yet, many SOUL'D OUT POLITICIANS still peddle their political chicanery like sidewalk medicine sellers -- or Email Scammers from NIGERIA or Timbuktu or TimBuckTtree... -- so when will the avearge Malaysian Voter wake up to DISCERN the Sandiwara or Wayang or Bollywood shows on the PWTC, Wisma MCA, even DAP or other Opposition stages?

In principle,I am not against members of the family contesting if they have individually proven themselves in public service and had not relied on their parents/siblings/FIL's apron strings to be nominated.

But becoming a billionaire at 27 years, and claiming "I've worked very hard for it for two years", then disappeared when the Stock Market crashed and the banks did not chase after the blardy fellow for hundreds of millions because of Daddy? YOU blardy Joe and Jane public owes any bank just RM100,000 for a House mortgage,or even RM10,000 for a Car loan, and defaulting on three payments, YOU GET A LAWYER'S LETTER OF DEMAND.

While the billionaire-on-paper and near-bankrupt goes away for a holiday in Australia.

Q: WHY IS IT THAT WESTERN AUSTRALIA IS SO POPULAR WITH ALL THESE SUPER-MEDICINE SELLERS?


Yes, often it is said WE DESERVE THE GOVERNMENT WE FINALLY GET (after going to the Polls every four or five years). But Desi has decried ofetn that many Malaysians are masochistic -- THEY COMPLAIN CONSTANTLY LIKE A BAD RECORD AGAINST THE BN GOVERNMENT, yet when GE comes around, they cast their ballots for the DACING. They are afraid to answer calls by the likes of Citizen Bloggers such as Raja Petra, rockybru, and zorro, et al, and Desi to vote for:
"V"4CHANGE!

How much lower do we want to see NegaraKu slide before

VVVVVVVeeeeeee
dare stand up to strive for REFORM and CHANGE?


Sometimes Miss Patience is also Ms Virtuous, Yes, I have said here many times.
But the BN keeps dealing out false medicine, and you are almost dying of cancer,
YOU DARE NOT TRY A MODERN TYPE OF MEDICINE?

After 50 long blardy years, what is stopping YOU! from changing
THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES from that son-in-law'sshoppe in Pavilion, Koala Lumpuh?
"V"OTE PKR!

TO BE CONTINUED...

People know my father-in-law well, says Roselinda

KLANG: Barisan Nasional candidate for the Port Klang state seat, Roselinda Abdul Jamil, strongly believes that she will be well received by the constituents despite the controversy surrounding her father-in-law Datuk Zakaria Md Deros.

Zakaria found himself in the soup after he was busted for illegally building a palatial home and operating a satay restaurant in Pandamaran in 2006.

“Things were merely blown out of proportion and there was no big issue at all,” she said, in coming to Zakaria’s defence. Furthermore, he is an old timer and people in the constituency know him well,” she added.

She said that Zakaria was her mentor and had given her valuable advice to guide her in her political career.

“I will still turn to him for advice,” said Roselinda, who is married to Zakaria’s son Zaidi.

But she added, her political approach and perspective were “different.”

Zakaria and his other son Zainuri, who was earlier speculated as the candidate for Port Klang, could be reached for comment.

DESI: Yeah, I know thy father VERY THE WELL for the following:

(1) RM7-10million "small house" in Port Klang among a low-cost shanty town

(2) ALL IN THE FAMILY councillors at Port Klang Municipal Town Council to ensure

*** Daday's UNTOUCHABILITY

(3) You are considered a Charitable Wakil Rakayt building a Satay Restron illegally and earning BG bucks and donating maybe 10% back to the beggar community

(4) Yeah, it's all due to BAD FENG SHUI, so your pay the fortune teller-writer a "small" sum for his PR job,and another "small" sum for another FS CONman to re-arrange things, everything is KAU DIM!

Let's now adjourn for the sext episode of:

AWE IN THE FAMILY!


Send the bills to "Eat, Drink and Be Merry" party within the Barisan Nasional.

the ling fella. still remember vividly how STAR gave a song and dance how great the company was. even had comments from supposedly hongkong investors. dumb investors took the whole bite and hook and of course lost their pants including underwear. no audited accounts were subsequently published, no investigation and who has taken all the monies? soh chee wen, in dsipute, spilled the beans but the police report must have disappear by now. which bank was the financier, if not the EPF owned RHB, who else. its distant memories now but tell it to the dumb investors.
hey, these ling guys are now even having a new plaything by the name of decanter. last I heard, 4 otulets and growing.
dad, must have hell of lot of time now to join in. his new major post in a supposedly reputable listed company (TRANSMILE) after retirement from politics is also gone having to retire coz of accounting scandals.
well, I guess scandals run in the family and it will continue to haunt them for generations. thats called KARMA.
