First they put up banners in Chinese in the Chinese areas, along the lines of, “Keadilan = Pas = Islamic State” and “A vote for Keadilan is a vote for Islamic State”.
But today, the whole city is abuzz with shock when they put up banners, “BN Pembela Melayu & Islam”, a number of them right smack in front of a Chinese temple, and the Sarawak Chinese museum.
That, or one of those Semenanjung KL boys got very lost during the banner run??!!
I’m sure there are more in the BN Bag of Dirty Tricks.

All hail the lord of Sarawak!
Taib Mahmud has been running the state for god knows how long. He can hardly walk, but with the state coffers in one of his hands and the other holding Cahaya Mata Sarawak, miracles can happen!
As for CM enjoying a 'special' relationship with KL, horse-shite!
PM Badawi has been trying to get rid of him, thinking he could use the excuse of ill health. But money can buy some time and a bit of rouge of the cheeks for the CM.

Eastern Time, is, together with Utusan Sarawak, the most blatantly propagadistic daily. They even ran the same letter from two different 'persons', with the same concept. Do they think Sarawakians are stupid or blind? It's nauseating. It's almost as if Eastern Times is an off-shoot of the CM/CMS.
It's either that, or the CM is so photogenic that Sarawak media can't help themselves but to fill their paragraphs and photo galleries with CM, CM … and er … CM?
Because I’ve had it up to my furry neck with all the blatant abuses of public office by everyone – from the Mayor to the dirty PBB/SUPP state assemblyman, from Malaysian Cabinet Ministers to the Inspector-General of Police (yes, even he’s flown here!).
The Election Commission is so badly neutered that it was probably a back-street job.
So, MataKuching will attempt to present, in the countdown of the last 72 hours to the most exciting Sarawak state elections, what PBB/UMNO/SUPP/BN do (with YOUR money) to make sure they win all the time.
What you get in the Semenanjung newspapers is nothing compared to what we have here…
Signing off for now. Time for a quick ‘cat-nap’.
