Only 40 turned out?

TheSun newspaper reported there were about 60 people attended a ceramah by BN MCA's incumbent Wangsa Maju parliamentary candidate Yew Teong Look. It also reported that 20 of the 60 people were from Umno's Gerak Gempur (aka Mat Rempits?).

When I first saw the news, I couldn't help to notice that there were only 40 people turned up. His colleague did slightly better. PJ Utara parliamentary candidate from MCA, Chew Mei Fun had around 50 people turned up on her ceramah in SS2 recently. DAP Tony Pua, however, drew around 200 people (3-4 times) in his ceramah held just 50 meters where Chew had hers.

I don't know if this is a case of being his skin thicker than an elephant's sole. Yew highlighted that some of the development that he brought to Wangsa Maju for the last four years. One of his highlights was, and i quote from the newspaper "With the help from the Federal Territories Ministry and City Hall, two CCTVs have been installed in Wangsa Maju .This has somewhat reduced the crime rate in that area." Kinda laughable isn't it? All these four years and he is bragging about installing 2 CCTVs!!! What more, he gives out a perception that there were reduced crime rate! If you read further on the article, a lot of it has "will do this and do that" sort of a report card. That is not what he did for last four years. He did almost nothing! MCA reported (in their own words) they are going to build a soon-to-be-constructed Chinese school in Wangsa Maju as announced by the Education Ministry in January 2008. Again, what took it so long? The school will not be in operation for about 2-3 years?

According to Sentul OCPD ACP K. Kumaran, he said in October 2007 in referring to Wangsa Maju crime index, "There was approximately 15% increase in crime index in the first nine months of this year compared to the corresponding period last year." But Yew said there was somewhat reduced crime. Yeah, do you believe what he said? Just google "Crime Rate Index Wangsa Maju" and you'll find that there are some killers out there that are yet to be caught by the law. This Yew guys is just beating around the bush.

Take a look what this guy has to say about Yew. http://hygen.net/blog/?p=135
