However, we am sure they have been not as good nave to consider this as sweeping reforms. we believe a rakyat will not be simply duped (into looking) during (premier) Najib (Abdul Razak's) Apco-drafted statement as good as feel good.
"Two questions come to mind: When will a ISA be repealed? And what have been a dual laws which, according to inside UMNO information, will be only as despotic as good as restrictive in replacing a ISA?
"How can UMNO do divided with restrictive laws when, only last month, it had hailed as good as defended a ISA? (Now,) following a announcement, you find editorials assenting a (planned) removal."

"However, what he (Mahathir) has finished is he had broken a instruments of a government, there was subdivision of powers. we saw this as we was additionally there. we am assured a people will perspective a proclamation finished by Najib sceptically.
"There will be hype by a media of it being magnanimous a! s good a s democratic. However, in a finish a people can judge for themselves upon a reforms proposed."
Changes will not derail Pakatan preparations

From feedback collected in Kedah (during my revisit recently) they want a shift of a aged (against UMNO). They have been anticipating for shift as good as you will try as good as accommodate this. Please channel your grouses around a proper celebration channels."
"As to discussions in Sabah as good as Sarawak, negotiations have been starting good with SAPP in Sabah though with SNAP you have nonetheless to gain any feedback. we suspect due to a new Sarawak polls it is difficult for us to work together with SNAP," he said.
