Defections Galore

Let's forget for a while about the morality of defections. That topic would be debated till the cows come home with no end in sight, if we were to really go into that.

We'll leave that for another day, another post. It's about the rumors of defections in Perak recently about the two PKR ADUNS going over to BN.

Here I'm going to list down the Top 5 reasons the PKR guys in Perak, Behrang assemblyperson Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi and Changkat Jering assemblyperson Mohd Osman Mohd Jailu, should NOT even think about turning over to the dark side, never mind discuss that topic with anybody:

5. Hope.The rakyat voted for you because they want change. Your constituents will never forgive you if you turn your backs on them at this most critical hour, when we are vying to whack BN in other states as well as at the Federal level.

4. Love. Yes there may be lots of money and perks for you. There might even be an EXCO post or two thrown in the bag. Hell, the BN chaps might even sell their mothers to you if the need be. But it's our children, and our children's children you should think about. If you can resist these temptations, then truly, you are there to serve your people. What kind of future do you want for them?

3. Guts. Turning to join BN shows you are a coward. So what's a little threat of jail time and hardship for corruption? All the top Pakatan leaders went to jail in the name of Justice. If you are truly clean, then there is nothing to be afraid of. Besides, you knew the risk when you joined PKR and ran for election. Be brave, be strong, be patient and the rakyat will stand with you, hearts and soul.

2. Responsibility. The BN government is corrupt, dirty and is just plainly full of shit (for lack of more civilized words). The whole world knows that. I'm sure you guys do too. So to join them is to be dirty and full of shit yourself.

1. Far sightedness. BN is in disarray. They are the furthest thing from being a united front. Most of all, they are going to lose every single by-election from now until the next GE. And when it comes to that, they will lose the Federal Goverment as well. Which side would you rather be on then?
