Syed Hamid was speaking to reporters after presenting birth certificates to 38 recipients from the Lubok Antu district at Rumah Johnson, Kaong Ili, here yesterday. The oldest recipient was 55 years old, while the youngest was nine.
To another question, he said the timing of the handing over of these certificates close to the by-election was not deliberate.
“We are now issuing them with the identification documents because that is their right as genuine citizens of Malaysia. With these documents, they can enjoy their rights to have education and any other benefit,” he said.

Yes, its better then what PAS/DAP/PKR can give, but, are you willing to give away your future with just a simple exchange of Identity Card (which by default every single Malaysian should have)???? Cut the crab.
Residents of Batang Ai the whole of Mlaysia is watching you. Dont be hoodwinked by the instant approved projects. Choose the canidate who can represent you and not by those who promise everything under the sun.They have been there for 50 years and only when there is an election you get to see them.So, make the right chioce!
Better than what pas/dap/pkr can give.
TAKE GOOD NOTE OF YOUR VOTE
Let your voice be heard through your vote
With your own choice through your note
So that you may rejoice with what you dote
Without the price of voting merely by rote

Aiya,ada pilihanraya kecil baru dapat kad pegenalan.ke????
Sudah si botak!!!!
Changes? What changes? 😀
This is the much touted sales pitch by UMNO nowadays with the arrival of Najib. Not even a week, and it’s already cliched.
Way to go, BN !
The people of Batang Ai must be thinking that all their Christmases have come at once. Never before have such funds, development and goodies been poured into their community. Can blame them if they vote BN out of shock and awe.
