Permatang Pauh Battlefield Report:Day 1.


Sunday,August 3rd,both sides(Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat)has put their best arsenal for "mother of all by election".For Barisan Nasional,it's life or death matter,and for Pakatan Rakyat,it's now or never.


For me,this epic story will forever be remembered as "the election that changed Malaysian politic,forever",Barisan Nasional,with 51 years old of administration,are facing rage and fierceful Pakatan Rakyat,a side comprimising DAP,Pas and Parti Keadilan Rakyat(PKR).


On the UMNO side,it was a campaign using Malay unification theme,while on PKR side,theme of social justice and liberty.Barisan Nasional has strength in financial,media,a strong established power,while Pakatan Rakyat,which controls 5 states of Malaysia(3 of them were the richest,Selangor,Perak and Penang) and Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur,the force that might shaking UMNO-BN establishment in 51 years.


The battle that forever be remembered.UMNO-which already facing power struggle,fighting each other for internal election this December,are in deep trouble,talking about Malay unification--but the party itself are spliting up.
While Pakatan Rakyat candidate,the de facto leader Datuk Seri Dr Anwar Ibrahim,are been celebrated as hero who return back for his own homesoil--Permatang Pauh.
Last general election,Dr Anwar's wife,Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail won against UMNO's Pirdaus Ismail by huge majority of 13,388.
Anwar,which will be 61 years old this August 10th,has been imprisoned for 6 years for allegation of sodomy and corruption,urging his supporter to support him for people's agenda,for lower price of gas and social justice in Malaysia.
At least 15,000 crowd listening for Anwar's speech,compared by 5,000 on UMNO side.
