The MP for Shah Alam, Khalid Abdul Samad from Pas, received a standing ovation and thunderous applause from 350 parishioners of the Church of the Divine Merch in Shah Alam. He had offered to meet the parishioners for a dialogue session on 27 March.
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your support,” he said, adding that he had achieved a majority of 9,314 votes in Shah Alam.
“On the part of Pas, we will now be a coalition government. Our policies will be based on consensus. There will be no attempts by any member within Pas to impose any form of law on the general public. We will be fair and just.”
We will do as required by the community and what is good for the community, he added. “We will carry out our duties based on good governance, transparency and accountability. I hope you will continue to give us your support and your suggestions and we will try to be worthy of your trust.”
Now, PAS and DAP are at it again. Each are standing firm, propogating its own ‘ism’. Politicians are an unstable group!
It is most frustrating for the rakyat to see the people they had voted to bring in the change they hope for, turning out to be ignoring the expectation.
It is sad for it to see that its hope is dashed so soon. Is there no possibility at all for the nation to become harmonious, peaceful, prosperous and united?
It is a pity that the politicians cannot take heed of the expectation of the rakyat who have placed its hope on them. Is it too much for it to ask that they put ideological ‘isms’ aside and work for a united nation? Are their political agendas more important than the peace and harmony of the nation? Are their personal egos more important than the general good of the rakyat?
It is most disappointing to see how these substantial issues are treated with such low priority by the elected representatives in the Perkatan Rakyat.
The easy victory, the adulation of their unquestioning supporters, the power that comes with their official positions, the temptation of the use of this power, their sense of false pride in their ‘achievements, and their mistaken sense of power of their own rhetoric have blinded them to the noble hope of the rakyat.
The Perkatan Rakyat representatives seem to have gone down the negative spiral faster than those from the BN. It just goes to prove they are not ready to shoulder the heavy responsibilities and exacting duties that come with the office of government.
It highlights that most of the PR representatives come into politics for many other reasons than the noble purpose of championing the cause of the rakyat and building an united nation!
It is a damning indictment, please prove us wrong.

Yes Novice101, ALL the BN reps are noble, unity loving, non-racial and honest without any iota of self interest in serving the rakyat. We should vote and put them all in power the next GE like in 2004. Maybe we could a have a rerun of the last GE very soon as 50% of Malaysians have made a gross and fatal mistake.
Besides, after 50 years of BN formation, there have NEVER been any cases of ideology clash between the component parties. Look at the PR,after a few weeks being formed already cracked at the seams. I agree with you Novice101, a newborn baby like PR should be able to run like Carl Lewis immediately.

I’m an Italian man, great fan of Malaysia and his people. This great country is making a point towards brootherwood and respect among religions and races. It’s a great lesson to learn for all the Integralism from muslim and non-muslim. The hate grown in the past few years especially from 9-11 has to be stopped and I really believe that this is the road towards a brighter future for next generations. I still have to see the last and harder step to stop the death penalty in this country since only God (I believe) has the right to take and give life. Untill human being won’t be able to take a soil and give it a life, human won’t have the right to take away from anyone too. I have experience in my country by serving people in trade Union as well as in political party… I will love to share a discussion on human rights with anyone who like to. Please feel free to contact me on MSN or by email at the above address. Keep Malaysia a might in the whole world as It is for me. Bye soon Paolo Magni
