The Power Of Influence

To be honest, how they did this was amazing. All the main stream media wrote about the Ijok by-election which at current time has the largest voters' turn out, about 80%. I am really amazed at how they come up with such number. You guys just ought to see the numbers from 8 a.m right till the election booths closed.

Seriously, you guys (the BNs) perhaps have the very great mouth, with astounding skills of influencing peoples. Getting from 20 to 80% isn't an easy job, isn't it Joe ? I would really like to ask how you guys did it ? Hey, I wanna learn those ways too. You can see anywhere there's no such high voters turn out, except in our very own Malaysia, where the impossible is always possible, or what I was told as the Bolehland.

Yes, perhaps you guys might say “Hey, PKR was there too. They also must have their power of influence over people”. Well, firstly all main stream medias said that Anwar was no longer vital in the politic of Malaysia. Second, all main stream medias also said that Khalid Ibrahim forgot about how he bought Guthrie, with the help of BN and so on. Third, there is no way PKR or anyone else can do anything when the FRU is there. You will surely get a jolt of fright, at least.

So, I must say, you guys were fantastic. GL HF in the next election, and let’s see if not only the voters turn out is this high, but the timeflow is also the same. ;)
