Sibu ByElection-Nomination Day.

I was in Sibu on 8th May,2010 to witness the nomination day for Sibu byelection.

This good looking uncle at first I thought he is a chief police on duty as I saw many police man standing near him. He wear black T and wanted to be "Arrest Me"

Too many police in Sibu now..Do you know Sibu have extra 2000 police during the election day.Good Job.....

Barisan Nasional..present Government of Malaysia.

The hard core supporters of ruling party Barisan Nasional.

The opposition party...

Sibu, is not a big and well-known town in the context of this country, but recently because of the by-election, almost everyday you can see Sibu on TV! Besides that, all political big names either from ruling parties as well as opposition parties are blooming into this town since the nomination day (8th May). It is predicted that this phenomenon will continue until the pooling day which is scheduled on 16th of May! Therefore if you wish to visit Sibu in this period of time, please be reminded that all hotels, no matter big or small, expensive or cheap, new or old... all had been fully booked!

The games of earth breaking ceremony.

MAHATHIR-We need an opposition:

Malaysiakini is available for Free for one week from 4March-10,2008.

http://www.malaysiakini.com/

Former PM Tun Mahahir told voters that the country needs an opposition that can hold up a mirror to the government."I believe in an opposition and they should be critical of the government if without which we don't have mirror to look at our faces.We think that we are beautiful but it is the opposition that keeps telling us(that may not be true).

You know the government members (of parliament) sometime they are "AHLI BODEK"(apple polisher).They are always"YOUR'E RIGHT",and you have no means of assessing whether you are going in the right direction or not".

I know what I did this Saturday.

Welcome onboard Sir..fasten your seat belt no..no sorry sir river taxi did not have seat belt but don't worry sir..I have life jacket for your safety.
There you are..you know what I did this Saturday.Amalkan kehidupan sihat.To get into shape!!!!

The gateway to jetty hiring a sampan from the river you will see picturesque Malay village (Kampungs)a golden-domed mosque,a Victorian fort,a whole street of the 19th century chinese shophouses and an imposing wooden-roofed palace,all set against a background of distant mountains.
Mind your step....this way to the gandola.

Like all town and cities in Sarawak,the focal poin of Kuching, and the reason for its existence,is the river,Hiring a sampan aka perahu tambang to meander slowly up and down the Sarawak River is the best way to get your first impression of Kuching.

This is not a wholesale market.Housewives and other small buyers with fishmongers.

Saturday afternoon is not a busy market day in Jalan Gambier because buyers mostly go to Satok weekend market.

Gambier Street-If you follow the passageway you'll pass a small Mosque hidden away in the middle of the city.The Mosque's structure has undergone many changes since it was originally built by Kuching's Indian Muslim community in the mid 19th century.Masjid Bandar Kuching aka Masjid India.

This is about the media aka Surat Khabar lama....

The MEDIA is controlled by the government.Believe it or not?

Go ahead to the nearest newstand look at the major papers in Sarawak.Whose picture are always on the front pages?Definitely it's not my picture....so who's picture.Yes the picture of our leader and an average of 5-6 days a week.Have we ever seen the pictures of opposition leaders is on he front page?The only time our friend from opposition leaders is on the front page is when they are throen in JAIL under ISA.

Senario of PoliTIKUS.

KHAIRY JAMALUDDIN TO BE FIELDED AS A CANDIDATE?

(Malaysia Prime Minister Son In-Law)

SULAIMAN ABDUL RAHMAN TAIB TO BE FIELDED AS A CANDIDATE?

(Sarawak Chief Minister Son)



from Rocky's bru blog

"Don't lobby to be candidate." So Khairy Jamaluddin tells Umno Youth YB wannabes [and there's no more vancacy for son-in-law]. The Protected One said Umno Youth leaders or members are selected as electoral candidates based on their capability and leadership qualities and not because of their lobbying at the 11th hour.This statement here is the clearest hint so far that the PM's beloved son-in-law, who was not elected to be the Umno Youth deputy chief, will be fielded as a candidate at the 12th general election.Question is where, and at whose expense.
