Anwar all set to launch campaign for by-election - Star

BAGAN DATOH: Aug 2, 2008

Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will launch his campaign for the Permatang Pauh parliamentary seat tomorrow.

The PKR de facto leader said PAS and DAP leaders, and his wife Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail who vacated the seat on Thursday, would join him.

“We are not playing games, we are going to fight,” he said at a ceramah at Selekoh, near here, late yesterday.

He reiterated that the first thing he would do as Prime Minister would be to ease the burden of the rakyat by bringing down fuel prices immediately, adding that lower global oil prices now meant the reduction would be more than 50sen per litre.

Anwar also said that more than 400 foreign investors had pledged to invest in Malaysia if he took power.

Meanwhile, the Financial Times reported yesterday that Anwar was gathering support to file a no-confidence vote against the Government in six weeks.

Anwar, who is fighting allegations of sodomy with a former aide, played down speculation that he would soon be formally charged.

“With all the evidence now before them, I don’t see any reason why the authorities should continue with these investigations of alleged sodomy,” Anwar said.

“In any other system where there is justice and fairness, the powers would have by now cleared my name.”

“People just cannot trust the word of any of these people and They cannot distinguish who is telling the truth.”…quoted by Reverend Wong Kim Kong, executive adviser of the National Evangelical Christian Fellowship. Yes, Malaysians agreed with his statement.

Let us rethink what Pak Lah say something today but do reverse something tommorrow.

Malaysians have lost trust and faith with the flip flop system from PM and BN leaders who failed to uphold and keep their words.

For instance,

1. when Pak Lah asked Malaysians to change their styles of living, in reverse his oil state MB grabs power to ignore him but spend lavishly for S200 Mercedes Benz for his excos and top civil buddies.

2. when Pak Lah said no hike in oil price, in reverse he raised the oil price sky high to 40% and 63% for petrol and diesel.

3. when Pak Lah said no electicity and rice hike, in reverse TNB and Bernas increased both commodities.

4. when Pak Lah said he is PM for all Malaysians, in reverse he attended UMNO - PAS secret talk to unite Malay on one race only to form a government and ignore non-Malay component parties like MCA, Gerakan, PBS, PBRS, SUPP, SAPP and MIC.

5. when Pak Lah said he will reform the judiciary, police and ACCA, in reverse he lets the three bodies do their fancies actions and swept things under the carpets examples are Lingam case, Anwar sodomy ad Altantuya C4 case.

6. Corruption within government is rampant, despite promises by PM to clean the system, in reverse more corruptions are happening in all walks of government bodies from civil servants, the police forces, to money politics for corrupted politicians in BE END parties.

As old Malays saying “PM cakap tak serupa bikin” means ” PM talks different and do different” is similar the old English saying “Words from mouth never meets Truth of Heart”.

Pak Lah said: We do not fear Anwar, in reverse PM and UMNO are very worried and panic to know Anwar is going to kick them out from federal government before Sept 2008.

No wonder Cabinet Ministers in BN government never listen or obey or respect what PM talks, assumed his cakap cakap kosong saja or talk rubbish without any strength of command.

These Ministers do what they think is good for their cronies, corrupt practices in their civil servants unchecked and ingnored public cried, protest and suffering today.

Believe it or not….read the daily media on what PM talks about something today but do something with reverse his words the next day.

As I see it, read it, listen to it….now time to write it. ……regards from Malaysian Mummy.

You are the judge tomorrow.
