Critical Thoughts

It was never in doubt that DSAI would win his seat at Permatang Pauh. The question was, by how much? So when I saw the news and the final results shown was around 31K votes, it proves without doubt that the whole BN campaign in the constituency was an utter failure.

Another interesting thing that I should point out that when I watched Astro Awani Analisis for the political commentary on the outcome of the by-election, Suhaimi Sulaiman the executive producer on the ground informed the viewers about what one of the voters in Permatang Pauh said to him.

The voter simply said, “if you go into someone’s house, don’t say bad things about that someone’s son”.

I wonder where did the AKIM guy go….I haven’t seen him in any news coverage except when mentioned together with BN and Pakatan candidates for the Permatang Pauh by-election. I am not too unduly worried about his presence as he definitely has no chance of winning at all and he even admits that himself. He must be crazy enough to throw away RM15K just like that, he might as well use the money for da’wah purposes. Or better still, give it to me, I can think of 1001 uses of what I can use the money for the cause of Islam if I have RM15K right now.

But I guess its a free country after all.
