I Beg You, Najib, Pick an MIC Candidate

Come on Najib, surely this decision on who will be the Barisan Nasional candidate in Bukit Selambau by-election is in your hands. Of course given that the MIC has had some history in this constituency, it seems they’re interested in having one of their candidates nominated to be the BN candidate.

Well, I’m writing to plead with you, Najib, please la, select the MIC's nominee – whoever it happens to be; I'm sure the person will be the perfect candidate. You see, I’m sure the MIC will do really well, you know. After all, they’ve had almost a year now of re-branding themselves and I’m sure nobody in Bukit Selambau will even recognise the old incompetent MIC party anymore. I am sure the MIC candidate will easily close the 2300 vote margin by which its candidate lost the last election and will in fact easily win with at least as wide a margin of vote as that loss in 2008.

Surely you’ll agree it’s hard to imagine how a non-MIC BN candidate could win the seat back for BN. I know after events such as the murder of Kugan, the general contempt for addressing Indians’ grievances, the screw-ups with management of AIMST University, the charade with expelling and silencing Samy’s critics in the MIC, the debacle with Samy Vellu's 'communication team' allegedly threatening a journalist and cameraman, its repeated insistence that Indians are not marginalised or discriminated, and not to mention the recent drivel from this KK Eswaran fellow – how can the MIC go wrong? Such publicity will simply do wonders for the MIC and BN in Bukit Selambau.
