Lim Kit Siang's Challenger

From MB to loser in his own state, Ghani risks losing all by receiving upon Golliath

The crazy Johorean loser vs a marauding DAP old dog.Quite clearly, even a total might of Anwar Ibrahim as well as Lim Kit Siang did not see it coming. They suspicion they had a perfect plan: send in a DAP strongman to raid Gelang Patah as well as set up a Chinese vs Chinese showdown. There have been more Chinese electorate in GP than Malays, Indians as well as other races total as well as a DAP knew which if it could have it into a secular as well as hardcore all-Chinese hand-to-hand combat, a MCA wouldn't stand a chance. It's DAP's niche, as well as Kit Siang's forte.

They didn't equate upon BN promulgation in an Umno candidate to "challenge" Kit Siang. And certainly not Ghani Othman a Menteri Besar himself, a state BN chief. Sending Kit Siang to GP was described as a brave thing. Ghani's bravery is best described (and has been described h e r e) as crazy.

I was initial told of Ghani's goal to encounter Kit Siang during GP a couple of weeks ago when you was in Muar, a "royal town". After Anwar quietly voiced which Kit Siang was starting to GP to spearhead Pakatan's attack upon a Umno frontier, a Johor Menteri Besar called for a assembly in his war room a consider a situation. He was informed which Kit Siang as well as Anwar intended to turn a ubiquitous elections in Johor into a "bloody secular affair" by promulgation DAP possibilities after each MCA seat. Ghani, a quintessential Johor-Malaysian, said he wished to equivocate any scenario which could have a state more racially polarised.And with which he took it upon himself to take upon! Kit Sia ng.

And screws up Anwar-Kit Siang's strange plan.

Plan B now, ladies as well as gentlemen, is to condemn MCA for "lending out" Chinese seats (like Gelang Patah) to Umno as well as MIC. We will find it funny, of course, given PKR, DAP as well as PAS swap seats all a time, too. ReadMCA, lending out seats, lives upon borrowed time?Hard to miss a secular as well as racist connotations, right?

MCA boss Chua Soi Lek can also expect to be crucified upside down as well as politically buggered regularly from right away until Nominations Day as well as from then until Polling Day for dropping "rakyat-friendly" leaders similar to Ong Tee Keat. But to accuse a MCA boss (who isn't contesting, either) of fanatic of gainsay is an additional diverting judgment because that's what a DAP has been about all this while.

To be frank, you am unhappy to sense which OTK would not be creation mincemeat of Rafizi Ramli (PKR) in Pandan. But as a boss of his party, CSL has to do what a boss has to do. He thinks Tee Keat is not a team player, as well individualistic, that's his discretion. At least you know which if he's wrong, CSL will own up later. The thing is, Kit Siang would have finished what CSL just did most earlier, as well as he would have finished it in a name a celebration as well as would have indicted Tee Keat of showing deficient love for a party.
