Last week, Zaid called for a halt to the ongoing PKR party elections, citing irregularities at several divisions.
This call has been ignored.
Yesterday, Mustaffa Kamil joined the chorus, expressing his concerns that party members would be betrayed for the benefit of a select few.
The party leadership still chooses to remain silent.
I received an e-mail from an individual at about 2pm today.
He said he has a stack of PKR ballot papers, which should, as a matter of security, be under the lock and key and the custody of the central election committee.
He gave me a number by which I could contact him.
I called.
He confirmed by phone that he has these ballot papers in his custody.
Without serial numbers, he says these will be used to boost the votes of certain candidates where voter turnout is low.
This, he says, can only be done with the collusion of the central election committee appointee mandated to oversee the elections.
He has agreed to meet me tonight to pass the ballot papers to me as evidence of his claims.
I asked if he was a member of PKR?
He said not for very long more.
I will report to you after I have met the individual tonight.
My question, though, is if this is true, will the PKR leadership continue to turn a blind eye?

Dear Haris,
I think they knew about these.
They are keeping quiet.
Lets see what you are going to have tonight.
All the best

i think pkr is no different from barisan national, as we can see from their internal elections. many of them
are power crazy. Many believed that if they are somebody in pkr, they may land a position in the government post if pakatan are given the opportunity to rule. it stinks! the top are as rotten as the bottom, given that, if people are observing the pkr elections, i wonder whether they will have this notion that it is also useless to come out to vote.
I seriously believe that putrajaya is meant for honest, responsible, fair and hardworking politicians, tq.

I fully agree with you. It hurt further if PKR that we inspired to be the alternative party for BN, at the same time engaging in Gross Cheating in it’s own election. I will respect whoever the chosen leaders it they are elected DEMOCRATICALLY HONEST. No rigging, impartial, and tranparent. Let demonstrate the different from the BN.

that’s why bro…..I’ve decided, not abandon but to ignore PKR. there seem to be all the necessary traits of UMNO and our cries for reform within the party seem to fall on arrogant and foolish ears.
surely there has to be someone with balls in PKR to heed the cries for revamp and listen to the grouses of the man in the street. (read you and me non-card carrying members, yes ?)
What or where is the change ? Just look at Sapi and Galas. Never mind the UMNO money politics.
I can suspect why Anwar is so ******* quiet and carrying-on like all is dandy. The only people who’d benefit from all this shit will be UMNO. And I guessing Anwar is planning to close ranks with UMNO….and I wouldn’t be surprised if such a move is being orchestrated even as I write or you moderate this comment.He seem to have an agenda detached from all he stood for then and is running PKR like a private club with privileged membership.
Let’s focus on PAS and DAP and/or the 3rd. Force…..at least we know who is more sincere and receptive to the little man-in-the-street.
Sheeeeesh.

Dear Haris,
I am not writing in regard to the irregularities of the PKR election. I am writing to inquire if you have any news of the RM 1.5 given to the 4 Methodist churches in Sabah. I am still in the dark. Can you please reply through my email address? Thank you
Best wishes

And to think that we were all under the impression that only the EC didn’t know how to conduct a free and fair elections! You named Zaid and M Kamil. I remembered reading that even Nurul complained about the re-listing of candidates in the VP race.

Don’t worry. I think Haris’ (or Dr Hsu/Khoo Kay Peng’s or any other independent) 3rd force will not bother to challenge non-conflict of interest candidates, non-vested interest candidates, non-nepotists, or any honest candidate that can declare his assets at the very least.
The 3rd force candidate itself will also be Pakatan friendly, so BN will be as good as finished. The 3 corner fights may not even exist if Pakatan removes all offending candidates, though 3rd Force will likely remain intact simply to watch out for and challenge any bad candidates who’s presence will harm the Rakyat.

I despair. If what Din Merican says is true I feel we, the supporters of the Opposition, have been badly let down. We have been taken for a ride and more, by Anwar. What is more worrying is the deafening silence from the leadership of PKR. Has the President been struck dumb? Is she so arrogant to think that we will support her and her party blindly? If so, think again. If PKR goes to the dogs then the Opposition coalition will collapse. I fear this is the beginning of the end of our hope of getting rid of BN. Adios!

Don’t be silly. Even if the entire PKR central committee is wiped out, the 2nd liners will be all too happy to take over to lead members who number in the hundreds of thousands. All the better for them without the established clique and nepotism politicians! Also PAS is still present and could guide or even absorb PKR’s divisions with DAP’s help if needed. Don’t think that without a handful of leaders, a political coalition of millions will fall. Is PKR so devoid of people who can lead?

If indeed you have these ballot papers in your possession, then it should be good enough to have the elections annulled.
Get Nurul to endorse it.

of late you have like some sinister bloggers created waves of doubts with your teaser postings.
Shouldn’t you have waited till you get all your so called “proofs” before you called it breaking news ?
Otherwise you motive is suspect
Do the right thing, not sell vapours

It is time for the PKR leadership to change ! and change for the better !
First you have the grand mother of all liars Anwar that he was taking over
the government and as a consequent attracting so many parasites who
were hoping for a slice of the cake, After two years or so in waiting these
parasites are beginning to realise their hopes are not going to materialise
and are beginning to show what they are and are beginning to jump ship
and as a excuse for Umno to give them a post in the government or a chance
to milk the people just like a true Umno member .
Now Anwar has been trying get out of his indictment for his lust ,regardless
whether consensus or otherwise it is still a crime for him to do it.
The ill informed international leaders that he is being indicted for political
reasons he ‘failed’ to advise these international political leaders why he
hired a hopeless young boy to be his coffee boy and took him oversea just
to make his daily cup of coffee. When all he wanted from this young bastard
was to screw his backside.
He would also sue all his ex buddies millions to stop them from revealing to the
people the truth of went on and that he knows they will take a long time for the
litigations to come to court and most of all for the matters to get a court verdict
and that would be well after his aspiration to become the P.M. and he wold then have
a CJ to make a decision in his favour !
Well at least that was what he was hoping for !
Malaysians do not want a lusty, promiscuous liar as a leader and most of all they
wanted so badly to have the corrupted Umno leaders replaced because there was
nobody else in the horizon for them to place hope on.
But the people can only be led by all these lies for just a while and now that he had
used up all his tricks the people are beginning to react their true feelings.
The people are not voting for Umno or BN but they are voting against PKR for trying,
for the past couple of years, to mislead them.
Also it is not helping PKR to have this mad dog LKS as a co leader who barks like
a rabid lunatic daily at the Malaysiakini daily and does nothing else. You will find
sometimes more than 50% of the articles therein are either from AI and LKS and
surely they are a lot more blogs from other bloggers. It is about time for Malaysiakini
to realise their actions have an opposite reaction from the people instead ! One can see other
than these two hopeless leaders they are so many others the people can have their
hopes to have the corrupted Umno replaced. Now that may take another GE to do
that but it is better late than never !

The People Declaration has given some light for a Proper Direction of New Malaysia. However, the PR idea has not even put into practice by the three coalitions after 2-3 years. They have not or cannot abandon their culture. Even if they wake up, there still will not be enough sincere hands to get a real PR working. PP must have its own candidates to catch up with the deficiency or at least a group which will go Really the PR way. Please start getting this basis done. Then, you have a choice for them to join in again. Or, you still have a choice of continuing when others could fall. The majority of Malaysians have lost faith with BN. But, NOW, the question is WHO should they Choose for the next GE?
CONCENTRATE on the Third Force to stand for the next GE which is much more important and practical than Bersih 2!!
PKR is hopeless!! (But, it doesn’t mean anyone good from PKR be rejected by PP!!)

Not more than 10 Pakatan members are offensive for nepotism or conflict of interest or vested interest. Just remove them and 3rd Force can run alongside Pakatan quite well and win! But remember :
1) Freedom from Apartheid/Fascism
2) Freedom from Religious-Persecution/Religious-Supremacy.
3) Equality for all ethnicities and faiths in all aspects of policy, Law and Constitution.
These 3 items will ensure the entire minority vote goes to Pakatan, no more mincing words about these 3 things, do it, and Pakatan takes Putrajaya as well as makes Malaysian into a First World Nation free of APARTHEID and also cement Malaysia’s future with India and China (nominally Russia and Brazil) as well!!! Stop wasting time and make this clear!

ALL ARE WELL SAID. They are the basis of HUMAN RIGHTS!!
The idea of PK is to have HUMAN RIGHTS CONSTITUTED and ENFORCED. Not only by Laws, but be via education and practice at home, school and in the Society. So that Malaysia will become an ethical country to be enjoyed not only by Malaysians but the World.
SMASH THE BULLIES!!
Establish Mutual Respect and resume the Dignity of People, Laws and Ethics.

Azmin is all out to destro the party so that he can keep all he money he has with him.As far as Anwar is concern he has given up hopes of becoming PM. He just wanted to buy time.He doesn’t care about PR or PKR. It’s high time we the ones who cares for the people get togehter and make our move.It’s waste of time talking about all the malpractices going on in PKR. After all they came from UMNO. I know much more than anyone of u of An n Az. they can never b seperated. Supplier n receiver.Separation means end of private businness.

PKR is becoming more like UMNO BN. They talk about having a clean election process, but PKR can’t even do it.
Some are talking about having a 3rd force. Well, i believe it is very good especially if this 3rd force adopting the People Declaration as their guideline for party constitution.
However, if this 3rd force doesn’t have enough money to manage the party, it will end up like another PKR, or worst, the UMNO BN will infiltrate the party by using someone. This someone will be given a lot of money to divide the 3rd force party.
This 3rd party can only be successful if concern people start donating to the new party.
Instead of paying taxes to UMNO BN gov. why not donate it to the 3rd force party.
Most of the time, money talks….it’s sad but true…
