I was fortunate to be directed by an acquaintance of mine to this online video of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) leader Anwar Ibrahim giving his ceramah or talk to the public at Bandar Tun Razak.
It’s a slightly lengthy video, about 25 minutes or so, but sufficiently highlights the main points of PKR for this election – which are the use of after tax profit from Petronas to help fund free education for all races in Malaysia & the reduction of Oil prices for the Malaysian consumers.
But the main reason I am embedding this video for the preview of TEC readers are the various issues that Anwar highlighted in the course of his speech. These are very pertinent issues that I think all Malaysian should be aware of. If fact Anwar managed to phrase some of the issues as obvious joking jabs at the BN ruling party.
Some of the favorite parts of the speech for me are
- The jab Anwars made at the Minister of Information’s total bungle up in responding to Al-Jazeera News during the live coverage of the Bersih Rally held in KL recently, as seen here. It’s my personal belief that Mr. Zainuddin has absolutely shammed the face of Malaysia responding in such a manner on an internationally renowned news broadcaster.
- The attack on the RM 530 million commission received for the middleman in the purchase of 2 submarines. Anwars labels it as “Commission is Halal (& Hadari), Corruption is Haram“.
- The capture off and internment of Hindraf under the label of terrorist without any sort of tangible proof. As Anwar puts it, when enquired to the Police Inspector General, the reply received was that the proofs on it’s way.
- And one very eerily good impression of Samy Vellu.
So take a gander at the video, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. I sure did.
Sorry folks, I seem to be hitting the wall trying to embed the google video of the talk into this post. Until things are resolved please go to this URL to view the video
