Battle Of The Hills & Rod Begins ..

Hills & Rod ?

Simply put, the Bukit Gantang, Bukit Selambau & Batang Ai by-election will be a huge test of people's confidence of the incoming PM. Kinda like a do-or-die mission for the fellow. But from the run-ins, it seems that the govt don't have the confidence of winning it lawfully. Permits for 2 of the printed media runs by the so-called Opposition (can they be called Opposition anymore ?) were revoke until further notice (they said 3 months). This will hurt the dissemination of info to the people aligned with them. Though the Net will provide the neccessary feed for those connected, for those who just don't have it are hoping for the words of mouth by friends since the mainstream media just spins any story to the brink of fictionous articles and reports.

Now, it seems that they are denying the other parties a freedom of speech with a total abuse of the security forces namely PDRM. They were taunted, fired upon with tear gas and sprayed with chemical water. Some even threatened with the ISA & Sedicious Act. With the outgoing PM still sleeping, things really getting out of hand.

Such a democratic country huh ? They just want to hang on to whatever left of their so-called power. Really testing God's patience ..

The simple truth is .. they just can't accept defeat .. for a lot of excess baggages to hide ...
