These guys we know. Their faces dominate to local dailies.We've heard all the kopitiam tales about Georgie's new girl friend, No. 1's Son abusing No. 2's daughter, another guy's drunken follies et al, Some of us even contributed to such rumours - But that's another agenda for another piece on another day.
What about the other 60 odd fellas (there are 71 of them in total)? How much do we know about them? Do we even know how they look like?
Let's go back to school together- mari kita sama-sama belajar ya!; In this multi-part post, we will attempt to be as informative about each and everyone of them as possible. Despite our name, we'll try to be as non-partisan as possible, using only information readily available on the many forms of media.
Ok-la Ok-la, we'll no doubt be unable resist the temptation to whack them every now and then (even Pak Lah succumbed to the temptation of Sweet Jean, didn't he, what more to say us mere mortals?), but we won't let that distort our judgement.
Hopefully, come election day, each and everyone of us will have a better idea, better knowledge about the boys and girls who are supposed to work for us!
A Brief history of our August House; Really Brief!

Originally known as the 'Council Negri' (sounds so much cooler, doesn't it?) - until some wise guy decided to suck up to the powers that be in KL and changed its name to Dewan Undangan Negeri, it's the oldest legislature in Malaysia (some say South East Asia).
- First meeting held in the 1800's in Bintulu by Rajah Charles Brooke during the heyday of the Kingdom of Sarawak
- There are 71 members currently, BN holding 62.
If you really bother to know more, click HERE. To start with, here's a Sarawak Gov link to the DUN website's (crap, cheap looking, amateurish, not unlike BNmustgo) listing of all 71. It's got their Name, Kawasan, Photo, address, phone number (but not mobile), party etc.- Pretty good stuff for us to 'get acquainted' with.In later parts, we shall get a closer look at them one by one, from N1 all the way to N71, with the grand 'finale' on the Big daddy-O himself, our self anointed Emperor/Demi-god/he-who-shall-not -be -named- for- now.
Until then, Salam Reformasi/Salam 1Malaysia/Kapal Salam/Ayam Mongolia - whichever your preference.
Oh wait, one more time..Just love this pic, don't you? It's a classic case of a picture saying a thousand words...Until then, Salam Reformasi/Salam 1Malaysia/Kapal Salam/Ayam Mongolia - whichever your preference.
