Permatang Pauh Battlefield:Day 2

Reading yesterday newspaper in Malaysia in the morning here in Canada,of course I'm looking for battlefield report in Permatang Pauh.Ha ha ha,I'm playing like CNN now hik hik!

Waiting for my correspondent for both sides are Syahrul from Ipoh,Nami from Penang,Fyle from Kuala Lumpur,reporting on Pakatan side while Ellyas from Petaling Jaya and Ana from Kuala Lumpur,reporting for Barisan side.

Here's a report from Ellyas,in Bahasa Malaysia.

''SELAMA 10 tahun saya berjuang untuk manusia bernama Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim dan sepanjang tempoh itu juga saya keluar masuk lokap demi mempertahankan perjuangan beliau.
''Namun setelah beliau dibebaskan, tidak sekalipun beliau menghubungi saya dan bertanya sama ada saya makan atau tidak, bagaimana keadaan keluarga saya dan bagaimana nasib saya akibat bisness yang telah lingkup."

Abdul Ghani Haroon, bekas ahli Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), yang pernah ditahan di bawah Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA) mendedahkan perkara berkenaan dalam satu ceramah yang diadakan di Kepala Batas, semalam.

Beliau yang pernah ditangkap bagi membantu siasatan berhubung rusuhan di Masjid Negara pada 19 September 1999 dan aktivis reformasi bukan calang-calang orang kerana pada pilihan raya umum 1999, Abdul Ghani bertanding atas tiket PKR menentang Datuk Yahaya Abdul Hamid dari Barisan Nasional (BN) namun Abdul Ghani tewas.

Bagi Abdul Ghani, jika beliau yang telah berjuang selama 10 tahun tidak dihiraukan oleh Anwar, bagaimana Penasihat PKR itu boleh membela nasib orang Melayu terutama golongan seperti petani, nelayan dan mereka yang berpendapatan rendah.

"Cuba lihat jiran-jiran lain terutama Parlimen Kepala Batas dan Tasek Gelugor yang terletak tidak jauh dari Permatang Pauh, bagaimana bentuk pembangunan di sana.
Keadaan begitu berbeza di Permatang Pauh hinggakan ada kampung yang masih belum memiliki bekalan air bersih."

Utusan Malaysia-August 5th,2008.

I never been in Permatang Pauh before,or Kepala Batas.But based from my friend who living in Penang,he told me Kepala Batas are way more undeveloped than Permatang Pauh,because Permatang Pauh Parliament in suburban Butterworth.

If I viewing from Wikimapia or Google Earth,I saw a dam south of Permatang Pauh Parliament area,so this reports are contradicts with based on what Ellyas told me,and if I view from Google Earth,I'm seeing Kepala Batas are more,undeveloped.(he copied from Utusan,anyway.)

If a dam are constructed in Permatang Pauh,how come Permatang Pauh don't have clean water resources?Utusan once again lied to Malaysians.

I'm trying to be neutral on this report,but it's not logical if I said Permatang Pauh,suburban area of Butterworth,don't have clean water and sanitary,while a dam has been constructed in Permatang Pauh.Where did the water go then?

And if this Abdul Ghani want to make a comparison between Kepala Batas and Permatang Pauh,then I suggest he should compare Bukit Bintang(hardcore DAP) vs let me pick one area,Pekan.There's a place in Pekan don't even have electricity(don't bluff at me,I was born in Kuantan),then is that a fair comparison?A Deputy Prime Minister area against Bukit Bintang DAP hardcore?

Developement are not an issue here,this report are totally bias on the government side.

And for me,just like Ezam,Abdul Ghani focusing on greed rather than political struggle that PKR fight for,against corruption,against injustice law.Where those promises that both of this guy made for?
