NS DAP loses MB seat by default

By fielding only Chinese and a few Indian candidates, DAP has lost its opportunity to suggest an MB for the state because it does not even have one single Malay candidate for the entire state?  
Concerned Negeri Voter 

 
Seeing the crowd in ceramah in Negeri Sembilan is very exciting and if they transfer into votes it will be good for PR as they can at least maintain the status quo held previously of having 16 state seats to BNs 20 seats. The difference is just 4 seats which had 4 years of time to prepare and plan to take over the state.
Perhaps PR in Negeri Sembilan jumped too soon with their Halilintar ke Putrajaya Program in 2010 which was led by Chegubard and created massive energy within people in Negeri Sembilan to start warming up to 13th General Elections.
But today the Energy of Chegu Bard is missing and Khairy has lost a formidable opponent and is going to have an easy way in Rembau. It was Chegubard’s war cry to go against Khairy’s Parliament seat in every election. We are not privy to the internal tussle going on within PKR which is upsetting many people in Negeri Sembilan and the latest being Teluk Kemang MP Kamarul Bahrain standing in for the Ampangan state seat just to fill up the post of MB if PR wins Negeri Sembilan. This has forcefully upset the good doctor who was caretaker of the Ampangan seat which was promised his until the last minute. They had 4 years to prepare and what a mess it became when it was a free for all contest on 20th April Nomination Day. 
We do hope PR will sort out its PKR issues to pave the way for a strong Goverment in Negeri Sembilan if it wins.
Our main concern is DAP’s involvement in deciding the MB of Negeri Sembilan. DAP had 10 seats in the previous DUN and a lion’s share of deciding the direction of the state. So why didnt DAP choose its own candidate for MB? Does not DAP want to have a Menteri Besar in other states other than its own Chief Minister in Penang? Knowing the state rules that only a Malay must become a Menteri Besar. 
By fielding only Chinese and a few Indian candidates, DAP has lost its opportunity to suggest an MB for the state because it does not even have one single Malay candidate for the entire state?  
DAP is not bereft of Malay candidates. ASPAN ALIAS is a Blogger and goes to all ceramahs and has been convincing Malays all over the country that DAP is not a Chauvinistic Chinese party but also accepts Malay. He is a strong figure and a famous blogger in Negeri Sembilan. Giving him a sure win constituency would have ensured him a place as a Menteri Besar contender. You can still read his blogs on how upset he is regarding DAP’s snub and its token Malay candidate sprinkled here and there all over Malaysia. 
You can see he is upset and also his fellow Malay DAP comrades who didn’t make the cut in his posting below. http://aspanaliasnet.blogspot.com/2013/04/perubahan-macam-mana-yang-perlu-kita.html
Other than ASPAN, there are also some prominent Malays in DAP Negeri Sembilan such as Lawyer Rosli and others.
This was DAP’s good chance but it blew it without a proper strategy for the state of NS. Perhaps the DAP Mindset is always an Opposition mindset not willing to change according to its UBAH call? Perhaps DAP wants to be on constant antagonism with the Malay population and is not able to accept Malays into its fold, especially when there are Malays who have walked into DAP’s fold even withstanding the stigma it will cause for them.
