Democracy perverted
Trickery is used to unseat an elected government by foul means
Malaysians, who trooped in the tens of thousands to listen to the diatribes of sore losers, will rue the day when this country would have lost the progress made economically, socially and politically. This last is obvious from the way PKR and DAP are attempting to commandeer a mature democracy by deception.

LEADERSHIP by example has no place in PKR. If it did then Malaysia would be in deep trouble for, in the actions of its de facto head, are manifest everything that parents would have taught their children not to do. Foremost would be the unending refrain in every home for every member of the household not to break the law. Yet, here is a man professing to be a leader, encouraging anyone who will listen to defy the authorities and rule of law. Of course, there are parties trained in law happily charging the police’s interpretation of the Peaceful Assembly Act to be wrong and that there is nothing illegal about the protest rally held recently by both PKR and DAP at the Kelana Jaya Stadium. It is important here to note that Pas has already accepted the outcome of the recent general election.
Malaysians, who trooped in the tens of thousands to listen to the diatribes of sore losers, will rue the day when this country would have lost the progress made economically, socially and politically. This last is obvious from the way PKR and DAP are attempting to commandeer a mature democracy by deception. Accusing the Election Commission (EC) of all manner of electoral irregularities and the police force for facilitating them, PKR, however, does not appear anxious to take its accusations to the courts of law. Instead, the country is witnessing a situation where one of its own key officials is forming the party’s own tribunal and calling upon the public to come forward with evidence of electoral fraud. Strange that the accusers are only just looking for evidence.
Something is surely amiss when allegations are made prior to the gathering of evidence. What is undeniable is that they are baseless in the first place. That it all began from well before the general election is further proof of PKR’s intention to draw a veil of trickery, abusing social media towards accomplishing these ends. There, credulous parties are picking these fabrications up and spreading the purported video evidence of vote buying, phantom voters being bussed in and reports of blackouts at counting stations. If all these were unimpeachable proof why are they not being carted in as complaints to the EC? Instead, they are allowed to go viral on Facebook. Now why is that? Obviously, the aim is to trap the unthinking into the web of lies orchestrated by PKR’s de facto head and his stooges. Is this not dishonesty belying a tyranny waiting to surface and, maybe, even worse?
