COMMENT | Thousands of promises which are hardly fulfilled By R Nadeswaran

Where is your helmet, you are already thinking that you are above the law, Ponogro?

Malaysiakini : COMMENT | The country’s worst-kept secret was out on Monday afternoon. What had been talked about, discussed and rumoured came to fruition when the prime minister announced the dissolution of Parliament.

Never mind that the debate and passing of the 2023 Budget have yet to be completed.

Never mind that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s concerns were ignored and a statement from the palace said he was disappointed with the latest political developments in the country.

There are many ways the Agong statement can be interpreted but when the prime minister makes a request for the dissolution of Parliament, there is little his Majesty can do to stall the efforts of one party’s zeal for fresh elections.

Although the dates of nomination and polling have yet to be announced, the campaigning has already started. Soon, we will have candidates kissing babies, sitting on the mat sharing teh-o and karipap (paid-for by party supporters) with constituents, some of whom had not come by for years.

MarioT : A very good and detailed observation of the political scene. Only on three occasions, all citizens are recognised as Malaysians.

ABOUT TIME : Am just awed by MIC convention day shanting BN..BN..BN..

All of you had been sidelined by Umno for years and yet nvr repented..The gravy train is only for the top post politicians..Shanting BN for crumbs..Never learned....

OCT : The Malaysia Oscar for the best showmanship has started. Politicians will promise the Rakyat the sun, the moon and the star but these will remain as promised till Rakyat has expired as fulfilment is a separate issue.

Both are like parallel lines which doesn't meet. This GE15 has a simple objective for all Rakyat. No need to listen to the promises, manifestoes, sweet talks, and goodies as they are all imaginary peudo objectives which will never materialize in your life time.

The main objective of GE15 is to get rid of BN/UMNO, MCA, MIC & PAS as they are either useless and/or arrogant. UMNO leaders don't have any visions for the Rakyat, their children and grandchildren but to be the taiko in the coalition so that they stay in power to do what they like, to enrich themselves with impunity and to escape any prosecution for their misdeeds.

Just look at their lifestyles. There is enough evidences to show that they are living beyond their pay grade. It is time to bring all these crooked politicians to book. Forget about race and religion. Just focus on getting rid of the swamp. UMNO called GE15 during monsoon shows how callous, inhumane, no sympathy and empathy for the welfare and safety of the Rakyat.

When there is these self interest politicians around, it is the duty of all Rakyat to give them a good kick to show that after all it's the Rakyat who has the last vote and power to select the Govt that serves the interest of the Rakyat rather than those of UMNO politicians. Let's come together all for one and one for all. We MUST all come out to vote in rain or shine.

Ini Kali lar. No more push over. No more kow tow. No more kow tim. Vote to save Malaysia from corrupt politicians. Vote for the politicians who can do a honest day of work. The one vote decides who will be the winner. So this PROMISE is not an option. Do your national service. Rakyat don't need politician promises but the promise of voting for a good coalition is a MUST.
