I am sorry to say this Carol Chew Chee Lin, has got a gender problem, a jealous woman who cannot stand Teresa Kok.

Not knowing her history I can only surmise, Teresa is more beautiful than her, has more charisma, more a lady, more famous, a winner, and someone who can succeed in life.

Carol Chew Chee Lin, on the other hand has no class, not fit to wear a good dress as she will look lumpy, a plain Jane and likely not to succeed.She will have a problem “living up to the Jones’s,”

So Theresa ignore her let her stew in her own juice, you have other important things to do. Show her an example of a lady, an ignore her. She deserves it.

Kok raps rival over ‘sexist’ posters

DAP incumbent Teresa Kok has been the target of sexist campaign tactics before but when assailing her MCA challenger for hanging ‘sexist’ posters, the politician today said she expected more from a woman opponent.

Yesterday, Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for the Seputeh parliamentary seat, Carol Chew Chee Lin, launched a poster campaign that criticised Kok for contesting both the Seputeh seat and Kinrara state seat.

One would be mistaken that Indian Progressive Front (IPF) president M G Pandithan is contesting in the elections going by the numerous posters and banners depicting him in several constituencies.

mg pandithan frail weak hospital 021006In fact Pandithan is fighting for his life at the General Hospital and has been politically inanimate for long, but some MIC candidates have resurrected his name, face and memory, to squeeze some capital.

They are hoping his former followers who now form the backbone of Hindraf, will sympathise and back them by a long shot.

It shows how desperate MIC which ignored, belittled and condemned Pandithan for many years is, now trying to kick some dust out of a political dead horse.

It is widely believed that Pandithan, who has been seriously ill for over a year is dying. But his wife issued a statement to the Tamil dailies on Sunday that he is being treated and will “get well” and return home.

One feels sorry for MIC, Samy Vellu is no more the leading light and leader. Well things must go on, why not recall Subra, V.Govindaraj, D.P.Vijendran ex stalwarts who may help.

Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi today stressed that the government is not in slumber but has worked hard.

Abdullah said a good government needed to provide the space and opportunities for the people to continue to progress and not become lazy or complacent.

He criticised the opposition’s proposal to create a welfare state where each household earning less than RM6,000 monthly be given an annual bonus of RM6,000.

“We cannot give people fish for a lifetime, but teach them to fish and tell them where to fish so that they become self-reliant,” he said.

“If we give them money, they will quickly spend it, contributing to inflation. But what the government does is to introduce policies and measures for people to generate more income to reduce their financial burden,” he added.

What a welcome announcement. So Badawi was not sleeping, the pictures of him closing his eyes was just that he was resting. Malaysians believe him, just a week away from election he has made this important announcement and unjust people accusing him of sleeping.

The other worthy statement was government cannot give people fish for a lifetime, but it will teach them to fish and show them where to fish. Wise words, becoming even wiser, the people will be told where to fish, the list should be out soon. Take courage Malaysians, once the list is out we will become self-reliant.

Another relevant point, money cannot be given outright to the people, they will spend the money leading to inflation. What! He gave RM 600 million to the UMNO divisional heads, is that the reason we are having inflation now. Any Economist there can explain.

Zainuddin Dismisses Allegation Over Dubbing Of TV Programmes

SUNGAI PETANI, March 3 (Bernama) — Information Minister Datuk Seri Zainuddin Maidin Monday dismissed an allegation purportedly circulated by opposition parties that he would dub all Chinese language television programmes and dramas into Bahasa Malaysia.
He said it was alleged that he would be reappointed minister of information if he wins the Sungai Petani parliamentary seat in the general election on Saturday and that Radio Television Malaysia (RTM) would dub those programmes and dramas.
“No Chinese or Tamil films or programmes will be dubbed like in other countries. RTM will only run the Bahasa Malaysia dialogue as sub-titles,” he told reporters here.
“I am not a racialist. My family has many close friends from among the Chinese and Indian communities. In fact, my children secured jobs with the help of our Chinese and Indian friends,” he said.

Koh fails to stop – just looks and goes
Koh – contesting his first parliamentary seat in Batu Kawan which covers the Valdor area – ignored the calls and drove on by.

“We cannot allow them to hold a protest illegally,” explained an officer, who advised the residents to obtain a permit in future.

Retorted a resident: “We will apply for a permit, but will the police issue one for us to protest against the BN? We want a new school for our children, not a police permit to hold demonstration.”
This was reflected in the Bahasa Malaysia and Tamil slogans on the placards, translated as:

  • What happened to the promises made by Najib and Koh in 1997 and 2004?
  • How many more elections do we have to wait?
  • We will protest until the promises are fulfilled.
  • Don’t cheat the people of Valdor.
  • We want what is rightfully ours.
“The BN wants our votes but refuses to solve our problems. At least the DAP has been voicing our plight in the state assembly and Parliament.”

I thought it was Samy Vellu who always took the brunt of jeers and boos, he has good company now in the Gerakan Dr Koh Tsu Koon. Congratulations Doctor now you are in good company, Samy can always give you a few pointers how he keeps his calm.With the arrival of Police, the circumstances were there, no Police permit, tear gas, chemical water and a few arrests. But the Penang Police were tolerant enough not to do it, and perhaps thought, the 200 odd people had a reason to vent their anger.

For 20 years the problem exists: Koh, Najib and also MIC leaders knew this. How can they be leaders of the people if they promise and then don’t do anything. Call them liars and cheats – but then they are thick skinned and the rain will have no effect on their hide.

The Indians are accosted vote Barison Nasional for your future, without them you will disintegrate. They did so in the past, what gratitude was extended to them. They will vote even a donkey from the opposition at least the donkey won’t cheat and lie.

How low can they get. They use the peoples money as if it belongs to them, the cheating and lying custodians of the peoples money, and then fail to provide basic amenities.

They will burn in hell, if this really happens.

According to an MIC insider, the party is rather “concerned” about the Kapar parliamentary seat, which sees incumbent and Wanita MIC chief Komala Krishnamoorthy facing a challenge from S. Manikavasagam of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR).
However, statistics reveal that such “concerns” could be unfounded. Kapar has some 112,224 registered voters of which 51.4 per cent are Malays, 35.4 per cent Chinese and only 13 per cent Indians.
In the last elections in 2004, Komala, who is also the Education Ministrys Parliamentary Secretary, won the seat with a comfortable 14,588 vote majority. She polled 44,007 votes against a Keadilan candidate who managed 29,419 votes.
The question now is whether that 14,000-vote majority can be overturned or swung away in just one election. And this also does not take into account the low voter turnout in the last election for that constituency.

Imagery Press Conference The AlZebra Interview of Wanita MIC chief Datin Paduka P. Komala Devi

Reporter:Good evening, Datin Paduka Komala Devi, even with your busy schedule you have agreed to this interview, and I thank you for it. To start the ball rolling it is reported that your parliamentary seat is at stake, and you may lose to the opposition.

Komala: Who said so, even if the sun rises in the west I will still come out a winner.

Reporter: But your President Mr Samy Vellu, says Kapar is a difficult seat, and you may have an uphill battle to win it.

Komala: He must be joking to release his tension, you know lately, he has been going through a tough time and from time to time cracks jokes to ease the thinking of not only the Indians but the MIC candidates as well. One joke from him revitalises us, and makes our work easier, like the uphill thing, I have taken the cue and only wear low heeled shoes as high heeled ones are not correct material for mountain climbing. With low heels uphills have been countered.

Reporter: That is a wise move, the other allegation is you have not visited Kapar from 2004. Is there any truth in it.

Komalam: It’s a lie, look at this record I have with me, of receiving 7 wedding cards from people here in Kapar, how could they say I have not visited Kapar, when this cards indicate I might have gone to Kapar.

Reporter: But those are deemed private visits, I suppose the voters are referring to visits to look into problems at Kapar and overcome them.

Komala: Did I do that, not visiting them? Well from now on I will in Kapar every other day and the voters need not fear my presence will not go noticed.

Reporter: What about text messages sent, why was there no reply.

Komala: Yes, I did receive these messages, but also receive a lot of scam messages, like the one it said I won a million dollars, anyway I am getting a new sim card exclusive to the use of Kapar people, and this will be pasted in each house, and any sms will make me to be there in half an hour. I hope the Kapar people are happy now.

Reporter: Another complaint is from a group of 900 people concerning their land. Do you wish to comment?

Komala: Yes, there is a slight technical problem. The people are unaware, of the on going headache, I meant difficulties I have with the state government to resolve the matter. Now that the matter has cropped up, my boss the Mentri Besar will act on it and by Mar 9 the matter will be settled amicably.

Reporter: But the elections is on March 8 and the people have made it clear they are not voting for you if the land issue persists.

Komala: They need not worry, if there are fated to receive the land they will get it, and I think it is childish of them to tempt faith.

Reporter: One last question, if your President Samy Vellu visits Kapar, do you think your chances of victory will be better.

Komala: No, no, no. He is a busy man, 9 Parlimentary and 19 state seats are at stake, they require his presence. I will do it alone at Kapar. Low heeled shoes, daily visits, new sim cards and lectures on fate, I am sure I will win.

Reporter: Thank you.
