Lim Keng Yaik wants to hide behind party’s skirt

I usually don’t bother much with dottering old men, but: Lim Keng Yaik -

Gerakan advisor Dr Lim Keng Yaik has called on all party members to speak out against Malay supremacy, even if it lands them in jail.Describing it as a ‘foul word’ in politics, the former cabinet minister said ‘Ketuanan Melayu’ or Malay supremacy [...]

Gerakan, Tan Lian Hoe, Toh Kin Woon & the Future

Update 3.30pm: I didn’t note earlier that the person making the call for Gerakan to leave BN is none other than Tan Lian Hoe – who is MP for Gerik, Gerakan Vice-President and Women’s Chief, as well as and Deputy Information Minister. No small fry, mind.

Multiracial Gerakan?

I just perused their candidate list, and even I was shocked not to find a single non-Chinese candidate. Multiracial my foot!

Gerakan’s Most Important Decisions Made By… Umno?

If Gerakan was voted in to lead Penang, why on earth is Penang’s leader being chosen by Umno?

I have always maintained that Gerakan, MCA & MIC have never been able to stand up to Umno, but this is an entirely new low.

It is wrong for Koh Tsu Koon to say that Abdullah should [...]
