Looks like PAS is doing something extra for the Indian community in Kelantan. Everything starts well, let’s hope it goes on well. No news of cronyism, bribery, leaking roof, etc. will be great!

Correct, correct, correct. Not penyangaks, not HINDRAF supporters, not BERSIH people, not lawyers, but residents, like you and me!!!

At first, I did not really take interest in this story. But the interest picked up when the residents and Grand Saga ding-donged with the barriers. One puts up, the other removes.

As MPs offered their views on apostasy, Zahid provides some details. He mentions that on Negeri Sembilan has law outlawing apostasy. So, if you want to convert out, best hope is Penang.

Secondly, Ms Tan was given counselling and was asked to consider her decision, but she prevailed.

Got to give it to the guy. He coolly gave his statement on TV that his prior statements are within the law and in the interest of the public. No way the AG can form a case of treason or sedition, he claims. But he better be aware that in Bolehland anything can happen. The whole country can believe in something, but the decision or action taken by those responsible will be totally opposite. I think its time Karpal make preparations to get out of the country for a short while 🙂

Meanwhile, three police reports were made earlier in the day. One by BN Backbenchers Club, one by a Malay NGO coalition, and the third By Tengku Adnan (UMNO Sec-Gen) after being ordered by PM. The accusers are confident that they have a case against Karpal. PM even said that AG will be making a case soon (shown on TV3 Nightline). Wonder how he decided that when the police have not even started the investigation. » Read more: Karpal under attack

Its going to be tough, being detainees and having to fulfill his responsibilities to a community located nearly 300KM away. Its not impossible, just difficult. If he can pull it off (and I think he can), it will be a slap in the face for some people. With good support from his team and other ADUNs and MPs, Manoharan can keep in touch with his constituents. Kota Alam Shah voters hopefully will benefit from his service.
