Porn actor - Chua Soi Lek has been portraying PAS candidate Normala Sudirman as some kind of extremist

It is another by-election and another scramble for votes in Tenang. And according to news reports Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek has been portraying PAS candidate Normala Sudirman as some kind of extremist, someone who wears gloves and would not shake the hands of men and would not step into a Chinese temple.

The MCA president also whacked PKR chief Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and noted she too wore gloves. If that bigotry was not insulting enough, he attempted to put Umno in good light by arguing that although Umno was corrupt, so was PAS.

How does he know? In typical fashion, he did not offer any evidence.

His comments are offensive on several levels. Not to mention dishonest.

It is a fact that many PAS MPs have visited churches, temples and non-Muslim places of worship since being elected in 2008. Compare that with Umno ministers or politicians who believe that they run the risk of conversion just by stepping onto temple grounds.

Don’t forget it was a PAS MP who defended the dignity of Hindus when protesters paraded the head of a cow in Shah Alam. Didn’t Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein fete the protestors as heroes? So Soi Lek is being dishonest when he portrays the PAS candidate as extremist.

If anything, PAS has shown itself willing to put its support base at risk by standing up for non-Malays while Soi Lek has preferred to prop up a corrupt regime come what may.

In Tenang, Soi Lek said that both Umno and PAS were corrupt. So better the devil you know. That is a shocking statement. So he basically wants the voters of Tenang to vote for a candidate from a corrupt candidate because the other chap is also from a corrupt party.

This from the leader of Barisan Nasional component party.

Is it any wonder that Malaysia’s fight against corruption is going nowhere (especially if you are the AG and you get to make your case before the MACC panel).

So essentially let’s support the Umno candidate because he comes from a corrupt party but at least we know the extent of corruption in Umno.

PAS is an unknown quantity. Soi Lek then invites Malaysians to ask their friends in Kelantan how rife corruption is the PAS-controlled state. I suggest Malaysians take up that offer.

Malaysian Chinese cannot accept Soi Lek’s dishonesty. He and MCA will say anything to continue staying in power.
