MAFREL (Malaysia for free and fair elections) is the only approved body to monitor elections in the country. They have done credible work. They have exposed how the Election Commission colluded with the BN to engineer suspicious wins for the latter. Their latest was when they questioned the 14 missing boxes at the Batang Ai by-elections and also why they were not allowed to accompany the ballot boxes ( votes were not counted at polling stations as is always the practice, but were transported to the counting centre.) PAS recent call to allow the soldiers to vote like regular voters will never see fruition.This is an opportune time for MAFREL to really show teeth and STAND UP for fair and free elections. They must insist that they SUPERVISE the postal votings IN THE ARMY CAMP. They have sufficient time to work out the mechanics. But MAFREL must start NOW.
In 08 BN won by 2333 majority inspite the 5000 postal votes. Conversations with army personnel, present and past have revealed that seldom or never have they voted as army personnel. Evidence is available where a voter voted under postal vote and on polling day he is in his hgome-town voting as a regular voter. Army personnel have two ID cards.
MAFREL must also find out if all the 5000 army personnel are eleigible to vote in Bagan Pinang?
Show your fangs Mafrel. Don't let it be said that you are toothless.

Postal votes are the Barisan's jugular. And Postal votes are Pakatan's Archilles Heel. Unless the jugular is incised with the scapel, Barisan shall roam home free while Pakatan shall fall behind to lick their wounds.

You got it Guru, The postal votes must be witnessed and votes handed in to an independent body at point of voting.MAFREL must make sure of this and all votings must be seen to be free and fair and the people is the judge not the EC as the people do not trust them anymore.
People got to make sure of this and Guru, now you must take the lead and keep reminding the people that this must be done.

Today (and yesteryears) postal votes are heaven to BN..
Let's change that perception and make postal votes a nightmmare to BN. Impossible? No, all needed is some hardwork...
after 52 years of merdeka, a town hall meeting ends in a death threat to the MP of Shah Alam. The policia just watch the commotion....SHAMEFUL....
what next?....
voting is just for photo shoot to sell the news that demo-crazy is at work in malaysia....in actuality, they can even change the state government!....thanks for the sultan's consent and the state mufti nodded in agreement....and he was immediately made a TAN SRI!....a first amongst any muftis.....

BTW the phantom voters are also voting against UMNO thus the complaints by KJ
Whe bother to explain a recurring problem which all of us are fully aware.What we want is a solution.If there is aneed for another massive bersih march ,let Pas lead the way for pr.Dap and pkr are short of imagination and only grumbles endlessly.
If pr cannot take on bn,then quit politic.We the rakyat expect the pr to fight for us and not expect uys to fight for them to to be appointed YB
News Headline :-
Najib Says: "Rakyat mula mempertikaikan kemampuan pembangkang mentadbir"
When the election is in a place that is a stronghold of BN with a strong probability of winning, the PM comes out with this statement, blazing allover the media.
This is his mentality. He is trying to deceive the public into believing that the wind is changing. And thus create a distorted perception.
So it looks like this one is already in the bag for BN. Najib can start boasting right away, no need to wait for the election result.
Malaysia is doomed!
PENGUNDI
Election Win
The politician was sitting at his campaign headquarters when the phone rang. He listened intently, and after a moment his face brightened. When he hung up, he immediately phoned his mother to tell her the good news.
"Ma," he shouted, "the results are in. I won the election!"
"Honestly?"
The politician's smiled faded. "Aw, heck, Ma, why bring that up at a time like this?"
HE WILL START TO BOAST WHEN HE IS VERY CONFIDENT OF A WIN THE WAY IT HAPPENED IN THE PLUND-OVER OF PERAK.
JOKE OF THE CENTURY AS HE SAID PEOPLE ARE BEGINNING TO DOUBT THE CREDIBILITY OF THE OPPOSITION.IN FACT HIS CREDIBILITY IS AS GOOD AS ZERO BY NOW. ZERO-UNMASKED.
EARTHQUAKE CUD HAVE OCCURED EARLIER TO SELANGOR IF NOT FOR THE TBH MISHAP.
SOMEHOW YOU CAN FEEL THE PRETTY MONGOL SOUL IS ALWAYS LURKING AROUND IN THE BY-ELECTION. HOPE SHE IS AROUND AGAIN AT BAGAN PINANG,AND THE SOUL KEEP MARCHING ON...
najib oredi finished counting the votes ... so Pakatan Rakyat how?
They have started making preparations for the coming win at
Bagan Pinang.
Victory messages and speeches being prepared. Entitled-
WINDS OF FART IS CHANGING.
No thanks to Mr Postman for..A broken heart love-leter.
Anon1208pm...you dreampt? Bad dream!
Anon201pm....hilarious...am going to use it in run-up to by election? thanks.
pinsysu: so how, you asked. Surprised u ask this question!
Nightcaller/Hawkeye....yes we need to start making it hell for them NOW.
SampaLee....they sure are listening....and they better do.
Anon208pm....not only Altantuya...TBH too are lurking...month of the hungry ghosts, yes? They have not gone home yet!
Maybe army there are not satisfied with an air force general to be appointed as the Panglima Angkatan Tentera...
There is no other way, the soldier must go voting like any other citizens. No more filling up form with the name, service numbers and unit attach with the ballot paper!!!
the soldiers must be allowed to vote freely without any threat that has been going on for as long as the postal vote was introduced.
This must change!!! Cheating, suppression and threat must stop now.I know it very well as what has happened in the camp. unless the soldiers are smart and brave and know their rights.
Generalretired.
Dear Zorro,
Military (Army,Navy & Air Force) Personnels DO NOT CARRY 2 IDs!!!
When they signed up, they have to SURRENDER their Civilian ICs and will be issued with Military ICs.
This is a fact!
So Unker, are you in Mafrel?
Stop asking Mafrel to do this, do that if you are not a Mafrel volunteer, please !
BTW, who cares what that lousy Guan Eng thinks?
Kelambong, why? cannot ask? you must be an umno fella.. only umno don't like people to ask.
BTW, a lot of us cares about Guan Eng.
Wow, Kalambong, must I be a Mafrel volunteer before I am allowed to ask them to look into this? I have to ask my friends BK Ong or Lucia about this.
hmm... i thought i made a comment here but i didn't see it appear. something must have gone wrong.
anyway i was saying that unfortunately we do not have mafrel members/volunteers in seremban, so we need help from the volunteers who are in selangor and WP. once the committee finalised the announcement, i'll be posting it at the website.
any readers here want to volunteer?
kalambong, it doesn't matter if one is not a mafrel volunteer for him/her to urge us to act or to made any comments.
Bagan Pinang. Unless the armies are allowed to vote freely, it is an uphill battle for PR.
"BTW, a lot of us cares about Guan Eng."
explains a lot!so,i was right after all....
pr supporters are walking towards the same path as the bn supporters.the questions is,how long are they gonna take?
And here i thought ,we were fighting for social justice ,honour and the truth. but cult personality seems to be order of the day.
Dear Unker Zorro,
The answer is a definite YES !
Or you would be yet another useless armchair quarterback, yelling "go do this, go do that, go go go !!!
MAFREL is made up by volunteers, they actually had to pay for their MAFREL jersey, their own lunch and petrol money and toll and so on and so forth
And they spent not just that one day on the polling day, but also nomination day, and training, and after the poll has closed, they have to report back to their local HQ and submit their findings
And they don't just stand there
They observe, they take pictures (and have to do it without being noticed by the SPR personnels), they note down any and all violations, chart down the time, the place and the person (or persons) involved
And they have to tahan all the verbal abuses and sometimes even violent physical assaults by the badged samseng hired by the authority
Dear Unker Zorro, after hearing all that, will you still be volunteering?
If not, please keep everything to yourself, since only the MAFREL volunteers earn the right to tell MAFREL anything
Thank you for reading, Unker Zorro
Hi, Lucia
Of course they can suggest to MAFREL something, but they don't yet earn the right to TELL MAFREL to do anything, until they volunteer
I don't like the way Unker Zorro is bossing MAFREL
A friend who was once incharge of voting from the army said that he has to ensure that they will give 100% support to BN or he wll be in trouble.
So what can you do unless MAFREL is on hand to see the voter.
tough call for them... very tough call...
anyway zorro, just want to say that your profile statement is very powerful.
If Mafrel can only be requested to do something by the volunteers,then it will die slowly.Many people can't be volunteers because they are the government servants.These groups of people are the one with the most important news.If you can approach them,MAFREL can do wonders.Keep up the good work.
BLAMELESS AND SHAME-FREE GAME?
Election by voting is a number game
May all players go by the rules same
So that there won't be any hidden shame
With the winner free from any critical blame

Permit me to share this quote with your readers, please read it and ponder upon it, if you want something really good you have to invest on it. I guess we are being forced in this direction by tthe BN and especially UMNO>
"I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government" – the direction of this improvement aims at anarchism: “‘That government is best which governs not at all;’ and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have.”

Altantuya and TBH will whisper in Ton Rasab's ear at Bagan Pinang-
YOU ARE NOT ALONE ,wherever you are-We are always there for you.
We will be there to "comfort" you in each and every single poll.
Sooner or later , win or lose , it's time for you to take your toll.
After all isn't it we are all under 1 Malaysia and 1 soul ?
ALTANTUYA ISSUE WHY SO SLOW ,PEOPLE MIGHT FORGET,BUT THE MYSTERY STILL ALIVE WHEN EVER WE HEAR SUBMARINE NAME.
