As posted by Malaysiakini @ 4.18 pm How much does it cost to have the second university in Pahang? Speculations are always there...some says it's UIA revisited. Maybe Anwar can share something on this... This time around PR reps blasted Hassan Ali for his stand. I, for one, will support Hassan Ali on this issue. Reason? Although Selcat is a novel idea to stamp out incompetency and establish accountability, it should not be a vehicle to bash past administration. Further, it should also not a venue to blast the state administrators who are following instructions. Selcat, especially those from the PR side should not go overboard in dispensing their duties. Open enquiry to public servants may be fine and fun for PR reps, but it is not for those public servants. Drilling them for something beyond their control is wrong. Overdrilling them for personal gratification or out of personal vendetta is humiliating. Remember that public servants are there to assisst the government of the day. They are not there to swear allegiance to a party (although some did). And whilst I am in the mode, Selcat maybe fine. It will be better if it were to scrutinise the spending done under PR governmentship instead of targeting the previous administration. Better still, Selcat should be coming out with guidance and protection for the civil servants to do what they do best with Selcat's guarantee that no political inteference will come into play. Can you do that, Selcat? Why did the group insisit that all the 20 or so participants witness the handing of memorandum? When the palace officials have agreed to 3, then stick to 3. Some may ask - who should be the three? Well! Kugan's mum, his lawyer and one of the 2 MPs' present. They can represent the whole 20 participants or so...so why create a fuss? Isn't 3 better than none at all? I see this as more of a PR exercise by Uthayakumar to promote his newly created HRP. That's the same reason why he calls for candle vigil on 6th september in response to the "cow head" incident in Shah Alam. Why did Uthayakumar choose dataran Merdeka over Shah Alam? If he is against the "cow head" incident then he should be having his candle light march in Shah Alam. The same goes when Uthayakumar make his presence felt in Kg Buah Pala. It was a short lived PR exercise and when the crunchtime came, he was nowhere to be found.
Now, as all eyes are turning Bagan Pinang, let me make an early call. If BN did not field in either Isa Samad or his son, PR will breathe easy and has a fighting chance. However, If BN choose Isa Samad or his son, then PR's chances will be slimmer by the day. But knowing PR, they will come out fighting to wrest Bagan Pinang away. It will be a good fight, a barometer to gauge the support of the rakyat.
Raya's over and you can see that the crowd is back in town. I mean, those wheeler dealers are now back at their favourite corner in the mall cooking up stories and sharing gossips.
Whatever it is, the recent Raya week sees BN making a dash to revive its fading fortunes whilst PR is under the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. So, this time let's not focus on a specific issue but to list down statements and issues which will either make or break those concerned :-
There will be some newsworthy issues not covered this time around. Now, as all eyes are turning Bagan Pinang, let me make an early call. If BN did not field in either Isa Samad or his son, PR will breathe easy and has a fighting chance. However, If BN choose Isa Samad or his son, then PR's chances will be slimmer by the day. But knowing PR, they will come out fighting to wrest Bagan Pinang away. It will be a good fight, a barometer to gauge the support of the rakyat. Najib's 1Malaysia is making the waves but his 1Malaysia F1 team fails to win me over...

To me, if Isa Samad is selected is the best possible option for Pakatan.
The upside is tremendous if we can create an upset win against Isa. Mad hatter will openly come out with guns blazing that his advice was not followed and UMNO lost.
Expect also a series of bashings led by Ku Li again blasting UMNO.
If it gets any worse, hopefully we may even see open warfare in UMNO.
IN worse case, lets say we get beaten upside down, we can still say UMNO selected a tainted candidate just to win a seat.

To me, although PR may have the arsenal to attack Isa Samad but given the situation it is difficult to dislodge Isa Samad from Bagan Pinang.
The best option for PR is for BN to select other candidates not directly related to Isa Samad and that means not selecting his son as the candidate.
BN will take full advantage of Najib's launching the PMSM (Makkal sakhti party) on 10th October as well as his pledge to support the yearly lantern festival and also the coming coronation of YDP Negeri Sembilan in the by-election.
This time around, PR is starting on the defensive end. However, the scanario may change after Muhyiddin announce BN candidate tonite...
Well, its backs to the wall time, we r now up against their home town boy and at their home turf too!!
EC is also for them making it a weekend polling day when the constituency is their home base.
I mean, can the odds be any tougher?
But somehow I feel good !!! Isa Samad is the one that will cause more disruptions for UMNO.
Even is we lose, we will have upside.
Watch Mohd Hassan's position as MB , he will b just like the Trengganu MB if Isa Samad wins.

Dnighcaller,
Another psychological warfare. Hehehe! Remember what I say about biblical that the enemies of Isreal kenna confused & destroyed.
Then came the mist. Soon, blinded leads to friendly fire. The Isrealites stood still & watching the total destruction of the enemies & claim the booty
Mohammad Hassan & his companies won't be sleeping well this time.....Hehehe!

With the backs to the wall, there is no options left other than to stand fighting...

Heh heh this time BN walks right into the trap. Yes, they have their homegrown hero standing but if BN wins this time, UMNO has no other options but to recognize their warlords. And that is not good.
Even if BN wins Bagan Pinang, they still lose. If they lose Bagan Pinang, it will be worse...
UMNO warlords are hoping BN win big so that they can return to their glory days. But at the same time the rakyat has already abandon the warlords...
All PR needs to do now is to put a credible candidate...let the show begins....
Nightcaller,
PAS has answered the call. Zulklifi, NS PAS Commissioner. Looks honest. Hope that he's not like Hassan Ali
UMNO warlords can win big. Hehehe! It can go both ways. UMNO lost Terengganu due to infighting. If UMNO wins, who is MB? Isa or Mohammad Hassan? Another Terengganu in the making? Hahaha!
Sure die liao. Guan Eng was smart when he mention Isa might big. Now, the diversion is there. Sitkrieg in the final stage. Now, blitzkreig.....Where is the point of attack
In WWII, Germany & France got 45 divisions. 500K each facing other. Germany spread his troops all over. Poland, Belgium & Netherland........Now, just gonna create a wedge & UMNO would be history

It looks like BN is using an old and proven warhorse with chinks whilst PAS is gunning on high tech to make a breakthrough.
Not only that, PAS is setting a potential MB as their candidate. The next 11 days will be crucial. And yes, BN's defense will be porous this time around. The nomination day will be a measure of strength. If the Indians and Chinese shy away from PR on 3rd October 2009, then BN is on the home run.
The Rembau Times always stuck with TS Isa and is confident he will lead the team to victory

Whilst I agree with you that given the circumstances Isa is the best choice for BN, it is an uphill task for BN.
Undoubtedly Isa may scrap through for a win but for him to really make a commendable comeback, he needs a big majority win. By that, I means, he needs to match 2004 GE result of getting 4411 majority (+/- 10 %), failing which BN's victory will be a hollow victory.
On the part of PR, they have nothing to lose with Zulkefly as their candidate. It shows that PR is vibrant with good second echelon pool of talents (which BN is lacking).
And since the Rembau Times is sticking to TS Isa, will the chief editor goes on the ground in Bagan Pinang to woo the voters? :)
Wenger,
You know who is Maurice Gamelin. Hehehe.....Charles De Gaulle heavily criticised Gamelin for having a Maginot mentality. The last campaign he led is disastrous. France got 45 divisions against Germany, having far less. Though Wenger might considered himself as German. Wenger's mentality is like Maurice Gamelin.
Nightcaller,
BN has installed a "Marice Gamelin" in Bagan Pinang. Worst still, with in fighting going on, what Mohamad Hassan gonna do. It's getting fun
Pakatan got to choose an "Ardennes" for attack. It's time for Blitzkrieg. Yee Haw!
