4 April 2011

(The story is first published by Free Malaysia Today)

KUCHING: Sarawak Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) today announced an assortment of professionals, businessmen and former high ranking civil servants as its candidates, which are described by PKR Deputy President Azmin Ali as the “best” candidates to fight the State Barisan Nasional.

Among the 47 candidates announced include medical doctors, PhD holders, lawyers, engineers, accountants, businessmen and former senior civil servants.

“With these candidates, we will spring major surprises in the coming election and we hope they will be able to save Sarawak and Sarawakians from serious and rampant corruption in the system of Sarawak government.

“I feel happy because these candidates proposed by the state leadership appear to be the candidates with integrity and credibility,” he said, pointing out that PKR will not put candidates in Pakan, Marudi and Jemoreng out of respect for the spirit of Pakatan Rakyat.

Asked on the position of Sarawak National Party, Azmin said: “In our last meeting SNAP is so persistent that it wants to contest in 27 majority constituencies, never giving us any space for negotiation.

“They also want PKR Iban candidates to contest using SNAP ticket. Surely this cannot be considered because PKR is a multiracial party, representing not only Melanau, Malays, Chinese, but also Bidayuhs,Ibans, Murut and Kadayans,” he said.

He said that both SNAP and PKR mutually agreed that the two parties have to base their candidates on the ‘winnability’ factors such as credibility of the candidates.

“On that score, I think PKR candidates are the best and the ones that can spring up surprises.

“However, we leave it to the people of Sarawak to make a decision on April 16,” he added.

With the announcement a yet to be registetered PERSB to constest in the 38 seats as independents, there will be at least four corner fight in each constituency in Bumiputera majority seats. BN is very happy with that.

It is really uphill task for both SNAP and Keadilan.My prediction, an easy passage for BN to win 2/3 majority in this coming election.

Vote out the cheats and crooks and sort out your land titles after the state election. Punish these BN crooks again during the general election if they continue to cheat and grab NCR and private lands.Do not sell your vote just because the BN crooks promise to refund your overpaid land premium or giving out land titles. Take whatever money or grants BN give because the money belong to Sarawak and for Sarawkians.

Sarawakians can only help themselves by helping Pakatan Rakyat to win to ensure among others :

a) all NCR lands taken away by BN and cronies shall be returned to the people

b) Our rights to freedom of worship as guaranteed in our constitution are protected.

c) All proposed hydro dams shall be cancelled.

d) A special trust fund of RM1 billion shall be set up for the natives of Sarawak living in the rural constituencies.

e) All Chinese and vernacular schools shall be given a fixed and yearly allocation.

f) All rural schools shall have the same facilities and standards as those in towns and cities.

g) All government projects shall go through a proper tender process.

h) All ministers including the post of chief minister shall be limited to only two terms.

i) A special committee shall be appointed to access and trace all ill-gotten wealth of Taib, family and cronies and make them accountable.

SARAWAK4CHANGE. VOTE PAKATAN RAKYAT.
