DAP Meet The People Session

I went for a swim after work on Tuesday, and when I heard that DAP is having a meet with the people session with Lim Kit Siang, I decided to drop by and see what Lim Kit Siang has to say.

I reached there about 8pm. They already started by the elected assemblymen takes turns giving their speeches. Mostly are pretty boring, except for Loke Siew Fok's and Lim Kit Siang's. Lim's speech however, I find it already old school.

I patiently waited for the time question time. The speeches dragged to 9.45 p.m. So already left by then.

I was the first went up to ask and give some constructive criticism to them.

Among are:

1. This is a forum where people would like to ask questions, it is not an election campaign. Therefore, keep the speeches to a minimum and allow more time with a dialog with the people.

2. The speeches made by the assemblymen are still revolving around the General Election last year 2009. We don't need to be reminded of history, we need to make history. Btw, some of the BN speeches are still talking about 1957.

3. What are the steps of DAP in taking over the government? If they were given a full mandate to change the government in the next GE, were they able to handle the leadership.

4. What is happening in Penang and relationship with PKR?

Fortunately, YB Loke answered most of my questions honestly, and satisfactory. Some of my questions went unanswered, and I think it's every politician tactic to evade answering questions that is controversial.

A friend of mine passed me some photos the next day. Then I realized that I looked very ugly in my short pants and sandals!
