Dear all, I feel so touching and warm.

In such a short period after I announced my Public Account here,  I received 3 donations via online banking  which total amount RM800.00.

Thank you very much for your support and I shall give a good fight in the election.

On the first night of campaign (24 Feb 2008), Chin Wen went to campaign at Taman Sejati (Daerah Mengundi: Taman Sejati ,1399 voters).

He  met Tan Sri Koh Tsu Koon, the outgoing Penanf Chief Minister, face to face during an event organised by local resident. As a new candidate, he went to pass on his campaign left let to Tan Sri Koh Tsu Koon. This news was captured by a local Chinese daily.

Although faced some difficulty, Chin Wen still managed to shake hand and introduce himself to 300-odds  local residents who attended the event. Bravo Chin Wen! You making a break though here.

That was a fire incident in a recycling factory near DUN Bukit Tengah’s campaign operation office during the nomination day eve. Chin Wen rushed there to understand the issue and pay the concern to the victim.

Here are the bulletin that prepared by campaign team for the event. You may download it here : Bulletin Bukit Tengah:N0 1 (Bahasa)

The nomination held smoothly at Sekolah Menengah Teknik. Below are some photos of the day.

Kini telah masuk hari ke-7 tahun 2008. Saya percaya ramai telah membuat resolusi untuk tahun baru ini masing-masing. Dan saya juga percaya ramai telah berharap agar pendapatan mereka berganda-ganda dalam tahun baru ini. Kos kehidupan yang semakin meningkat terutamanya harga barang semakin naik menyebabkan ramai berasa tertekan.

Saya berharap pula dalam tahun baru ini, rakyat jelata akan memberi sokongan padu kepada pembangkang agar sekurang-kurangnya pembangkang dapat menafikan majoriti BN dalam pilihanraya umum yang dipercayai akan diadakan dalam tahun ini.

A second year student of University Purta Malaysia has been found “guilty” by the varsity internal disciplinary tribunal been obstructing the university security officers from discharging their duty. Besides been given stiff warning, he was also suspended for one semester.

Apparently, the “indiscipline” student was stopped by the guard house. He was ordered to have his bag be searched by the security guards. He refused to follow the order as there was no reason given by the security guards.  His bag was then seized by some unidentified person who arrived at the scene later.

It seems that the security guards of the unversity have “greater” power than our police force. Even the police need to identify themselves when carrying the search and seizure procedure.

Yet the so-called “indiscipline” student was suspended of his study because he just wanted to know the purpose of the search before he handed over his bag.

Maybe it is the university authority’s view that by enforcing strict disciplinary rules on the students will improve their world ranking.

Akhirnya, Perdana Menteri memaklumkan bahawa atas prinsip, satu Suruhanjaya Diraja akan ditubuhkan untuk mengkaji klip video VK Lingam.

Pengumuman ini sememangnya tidak disangkakan oleh banyak pihak kerana sebelum ini kerajaan pimpinan Datuk Seri Ahmad Badawi tidak menyambut baik desakan Parti Keadilan Rakyat untuk menubuhkan Suruhanjaya Diraja. Tambahan pula, pengumuman tersebut dibuat sehari dua selepas Timbalan Perdana Menteri memberitahu bahawa 3 orang Menteri telah ditugaskan untuk mengkaji laporan Panel 3 Orang yang diberi tugas untuk mengkaji kesahihan klip video tersebut.

Akan tetapi, selepas mesyuarat Kabinet lalu, kita masih belum tahu siapa dia anggotanya serta “terms of reference” Suruhanjaya Diraja yang dinanti-nantikan itu.

Agaknya, persaingan dalaman UMNO masih sengit di mana pengumuman Perdana Menteri tersebut boleh dilihat sebagai satu tamparan ke atas kesemua “usaha” Timbalan Perdana Menteri dalam menangani isu klip video sebelum itu.

Persoalannya, adakah krisis badan kehakiman Negara kita akan diselesaikan dengan tubuhnya Suruhanjaya Diraja.

Seandainya Suruhanjaya Diraja pada akhirnya memberi cadangan yang bernas, ia masih ada di tangan kerajaan samada akan melaksanakan cadangan tersebut atau tidak. Kita harus ingat cadangan Suruhanjaya Diraja sebelum ini tentang pasukan polis masih belum diterima oleh kerajaan BN ini!!

Kita perlu kerajaan yang jujur dalam melaksanakan cadangan yang bernas daripada pelbagai pihak. Saya yakin kerajaan bawah pimpinan BN yang ada sekarang bukan kerajaan yang jujur untuk berbuat demikian.

Saya minta maaf kerana tidak mengemaskinikan blog saya ini untuk 2 minggu yang lalu. Tetapi, pada masa yang sama itu, suasana di negara kita ini jauh berbeza daripada blog saya ini. Terdapat beberapa perkembangan / kejadian telah berlaku yang perlu kita fikir serta bincangkan.

I apologise for not updating my own blog for the past 2 weeks. Nonetheless, during that time, it was an eventful week for the Malaysian. There were incidents that brought Malaysian into further discussion.
