Kuching, not purring | Muara Tuang promising

From the grapevine ...

Kuching/ Padungan.

News of PBB boys going round the houses in Malay residential areas asking for ID numbers of households, purportedly to help get personal info facilitating polling on April 16. It's early or too late or whatever, in view of April 16, but it seems crazy that this still needs to be done now or via going houses. The Malay votes are not going to matter in Padungan as there are only a sprinkling of them there. The DAP must be very confident of getting Chinese votes.

Whether its DAP or PKR, voters should be sick of bumping across them and seeing them around. And if its a matter of checking Polling Day details a temporary booth somewhere with a worker on a laptop would make presence felt.


With the PBB boys going round houses, they may be up to mischief. SPR is not rakyat friendly and non-compliant of election rules as in in N15 Muara Tuang whereNoraini Hamzah was denied PAS of a victory.

Wan Azizah, PKR Party President is now asking Dominic Ng to withdraw when earlier she had said it was his right.

I don't feel DAP's presence in Padungan, Kuching as compared to before when NG was shoving his nose under people's faces you got sick of him and relented. The DAP Candidate Wong's blog is dead and not updated for 12 months. Did PR manage this right? In keeping a brazen previously hardworking Ng occupied with work that he can't think of anything else? Information is very lacking on what's going on. It doesn't help that Taib is stopping Malayan boys and girls from coming in to help. The challenges in Sarawak are plenty, in addition to intimidations from the Police.

Election time is about rights, rightly or wrongly perceived makes a lot of difference. But Padungan is ripe for SUPP's picking.

Hacked !!!

First Election cyber casualty. PKR Candidate ZOLHAIDAH BINTI SUBOH, N 62, Lambir. Her site www.zulhaidah.com has been hacked. Looks more like UMNO cybertrooper boys handiwork

Zulhaidah has strong repute from among her ranks in PKR Miri and Sarawak and this attack, affirms it. It's a symptom of panic in PBB. She could not be in the good books of Bintulu Lumber Development (BLD) Group, which has problems with Rh Ranggong ak Jenau in Ulu Niah Miri.

...

By the Penyamun's, Sarawak Headhunter, forecast Zulhaida should pull through:

N062: LAMBIR: SARAWAK: 14,144
1. Ripin b Lamat (BN)
2. Zolhaidah bti Suboh (PKR)
3. Johari b Bujang (SNAP)


Incumbent: Datuk Aidan Wing (BN-PBB)
Votes obtained: 4,331
Majority: 2,834
Malay/Melanau: 37.26%, Chinese: 26.48%, Iban: 31.19%, Bidayuh: 1.46%, Orang Ulu: 3.56%, Others: 0.06%

...

Just 8 % or 16 ladies vie for DUN, compared to 197 dungu men!

Jadual 3 : Bilangan calon bertanding mengikut jantina ( Gender, no. of contenders)

LELAKI (Gents) - 197 WANITA (Ladies) - 16

media.penerangan.gov.my

Mining for info amongst Government sites, like this "penerangan.gov.my" is terrible. They're badly designed, navigation is crazy, speed crawls, they seem lost in direction or even had good sense of the educational value of the data they keep off from the rakyat.

Sarawak State Elections 2011 | Headhunting season is on for Change

While trying to confirm the final list of official Candidates for the 2011 Sarawak Elections, I trawled for some predictions and came up with The Sarawak Head Hunter's opinion. No info how he came up with it but still it's interesting.

Several places with 4-way fights and Belaga has 6-way. Ngemah and Machan have 5-way and Talip Zulpilip, BN, is facing 5-way in Jepak. I have no hangup about Talip but he's wasted (State wise) for Sarawak whilst in BN.

Interesting and highly optimistic for Change.

Predictions by Sarawak Headhunter in red (updated). [ 12:38 08-Apr-11 ]

SNAP: 15
PKR: 18
DAP: 14
PAS: .4 5
BN: 17 15
IND: 4
TOTAL: 71

SARAWAK STATE ELECTIONS | Aspirants declared prior to Nomination Day

Nomination forms for the elections todate number 650, averaging to 10 candidates per DUN Seat. Tomorrow, 6th April is Nomination Day and perhaps only 180 of these will be returned for contest on 16 April.

300 contestants from 3 major contesting parties for the 71 seats would be quite a lot and very unlikely, otherwise this election could well be a mud wrestling contest with the shit hitting the ceiling. Puts to mind, if ever such a contingent situation ever arise, the Election Commission would be least preprared as their major declared effort has been to transport voters, which is very questionable - citizens voting for whom will they transport? Then there's the additional helicopters from Indonesia and Phillipines.

The contestants declared to date:

Sarawak Elections | What for?

When Lady Hodgeson (min 0:20 sec) mentioned Taib’s speech, her response was well coated, and by her “lordy-wordy” polite jargon, “these problems are shared”. She is merely saying Taib and his policies sucks.

Taib curi tanah, kayu, tanam palm oil – where got land to plant food left. Sarawak’s agriculture is in a mess. There’s no farming culture but “curi culture”.

She is saying – “Taib, you’re telling us nothing new. We’ve got enough problems and you’re coming here and telling us to mess more of it up! We’re not dumb. We heard you curi tanah and curi balak!”

Food supply in Sarawak and Malaysia is no joke, ah! Gomen say we want to maintain 70% safety margin, whatever that means. It’s like eating 10 grains of rice, 3 of which you have to buy from overseas.

If world food supply has been screwed up by jerks like Taib, the shortage globally will bring more trouble. Those money robbers will short supply of grains on the market and we won’t be able to afford to eat 7 grains then. Don’t talk about buying 3 overseas.

What with our household debt[#] hitting the roof and increasing by some RM25 billions from RM486 billions this year and going up to RM511 billions next year, mati kena otang, lor!

It doesn’t matter how much money they can fcuk into the system. It matters you’re going to be forced into “otang”!

Which means it’s slavery! They’re forcing you into slavery.

This is in addition to forcing you to let them mess up your Bible by defacing it.

You can take back some respect lah. How? How about putting Taib, PBB and the whole lot of them on the cross. But when voting you mark PR lah! :D
