I have not had the time to celebrate over this victory. I’ve had to delve straight into meetings and to set up the framework for my service centre. Many of you have insisted that we have a grand celebration. As much as I want to, I have to abide by the instructions of the Inspector-General… Read more »

Interesting morning
This morning I was out meeting the residents in PJS. As we stopped for breakfast in SS14, coincidentally a couple of BN supporters came to the restaurant too. One of them came up and congratulated me. For a moment there I thought wow, that’s quite presumptuous. Polling day is 2 days away! But she then… Read more »
SPR backtracks – an impartial move?
4 days to polling day and SPR (Election Commission) decides to not use the indelible ink. DAP leadership has issued this statement. The New York-based Human Rights Watch has issued a statement condemning Malaysia’s electoral process. SPR has been citing some unsubstantiated reports of possible abuse in the usage of this indelible ink. Apparently some… Read more »

The Rakyat came out in the thousands, braved the rain, and declared with their voices and their donations that it is time for change. The mainstream media has chosen not to give coverage to this even though many of the… Read more »
BN resorting to cheap shots at a woman’s expense
I am appalled by the message of BN that’s being sent to the voters in the constituency that my compatriot Teresa Kok is contesting in. Last night at her ceramah in USJ18, Teresa highlighted this smear campaign by BN. I went to see for myself these degrading cartoon banners this afternoon. I found many such… Read more »
Let’s hop onto the right bus….
I illustrated the difference between DAP’s rocket and BN’s angkasawan at our ceramah on Wed Feb 27. I said, “this (DAP) rocket wants to propel the entire nation forward, and not just take one man upward.” The very next day, this is what I read on NST: Difference between DAP’s rocket and Malaysia’s first spaceman….

The people of Subang Jaya
Our very first ceramah last night in SS18 was a resounding success! Despite the earlier downpour and the muddy ground, the people of Subang Jaya came out to support us. I was deeply moved when I saw residents streaming out of their houses, walking towards the field. A picture speaks louder than a thousand words…. Read more »
Last night, I was given the honour to introduce myself at Parti Keadilan Rakyat’s ceramah in SS19. I saw some familiar faces in the crowd. As a young child I used to live only a few blocks away from the ceramah venue. The highlight for me was when Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim called me up… Read more »
