We give notice to UMNO and Barisan Nasional that we will no longer be bound by the limitations of decency and good taste in our fight to bring back our rights to a decent and good government for the people of this country. We do so not because we have our backs against the wall. Not because we hunger for power. Not because our cause requires such tactics in order to have hope of being accepted by the people. No, not for any of those reasons.
You UMNO and your co conspirators in Barisan have shown us the way. You have made conspiring with the corrupt, the sleazy and murderers as your modus operandi. You choose to prosecute our leaders on trumped up charges – incarcerating them in prisons for years and years – not on criminal charges but for their beliefs. You choose to have disbarred lawyers and convicted politicians as your representatives in elections – surely an overt display of your disdain and contempt for the common people whose votes you seek. You chose to have as our Prime Minister a man unwilling and unable to defend his reputation in court and yet you dare to charge our Anwar Ibrahim for sodomy. Murder and sodomy? What arrogance you have in doing so!
No more. No more will we be bound by common decency and good manners in our fight with you. We start here with Bagan Pinang. Tomorrow I will say what I have to say about Isa and why he is not fit to represent the people of Bagan Pinang. If the religious authorities in Pahang chose to cane Kartika for having a glass of beer let us see what the religious authority will say about Isa after tomorrow. God help us.
