I hope that you will take up this issue to give your legal perspective on the mattter.

However I hope they consider it this way. I read this article - <a href="http://pray-for-malaysia.blogspot.com/2008/03/reject-all-barisan-mps-as-long-as-whip.html" rel="nofollow">Reject all Barisan MPs as long as the whip is imposed all the time</a> and think it makes sense because BN party whip is never lifted irrespective of issue. However I read in that article that DAP and I assume the other PR components have the same policy as per party whip - if the issue pertains to what had been revealed in their party policies and their election manifesto, reps will have to vote along party line. I think that is fair because voters as well as candidates are assumed to have read them and thus vote with assumed open eyes and there should be no objection since reps should be bound by them prior to election. However that article says Lim Guan Eng and Lim Kit Siang have said if it involves a matter of conscience then they can vote according to conscience. I just want to draw their attention to the above so that party whip does not become a hinderence to them standing on their party ticket.<br /><br />On the other hand while I had reservation on offering candidates to BN, come to think of it, perhaps that may not be too bad an idea as long as how the vote in Parliament is made clear to voters first and they can vote on the same basis as above.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1181672827682662169.post-280648009009828022010-11-04T00:58:10.712+08:002010-11-04T00:58:10.712+08:00You're back!

The Malay masses need people like you. <br /><br />All Malaysian need Malay-Muslim like you.

Government should be afraid of the people. "<br />A change of mindset is required. The current prevalent mindset is that BN equals the government. <br />The change in mindset required is that the people / rakyat is the Employer, the political parties (BN or PR) are the Employees. Government is the Job the political parties are applying for; the General Election is the interview; their manifestoes are their Resumes. <br />If the Employee does not perform up to mark, the Employer should and would FIRE the Employee from the Job. <br />Corruption and dereliction of duty should not be tolerated and should be punished accordingly.AnesthMOnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1181672827682662169.post-41196053330883687022010-09-30T11:15:03.029+08:002010-09-30T11:15:03.029+08:00Since the sacking for Salleh Abas the Judiciary ha...Since the sacking for Salleh Abas the Judiciary has become one component of Barisan Nasional.<br /><br />And it "performed faithfully and remarkably well" in all cases involving the Perak State Constitution and the elected State Assembly.<br /><br />Similarly ever single case, criminal and civil filed by Anwar Ibrahim had gone against him.<br /><br />I am just a man on the street with no legal training and I can see that the Judiciary is there to protect BN, not the people nor the constitution. <br />This is a national shame.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1181672827682662169.post-10322040461223565212010-09-29T14:25:53.275+08:002010-09-29T14:25:53.275+08:00Good to see you back here, MIS.
