PAPAR: Former PKR Divisional Head for Papar, Sylvester Balon Mujim, wanted the Party to nullify the party poll's results for the Division held yesterday and hold a fresh poll, a fairer and a more organised polling.
He claimed the Papar polling yesterday, in which he lost to lawyer Datuk James Ghani, was marred with various discrepancies.
"It was one of the worst-organised and dirtiest elections held. I am filing official complaint to the Party Election Committee and i hope they will reconvene and hold a fresh polls for Papar," he said in a statement here today.
The real mood on the Sarawak ground
By Bunga Pakma
Nobody at all was jumping up and down with glee in anticipation of Malaysia Day. This new-fangled holiday was a complete non-starter with my fellow Sarawakians. They regarded it with an indifference so profound that I can’t even call it “sullen”.
Sarawak was as beautiful and fresh as when I left it last. Simply to stroll about our kebun in the chill air at sunrise filled me with joy. We non-Muslims hardly noticed Hari Raya this year, and that struck me as different. Most of the shops in town stayed open and the vegetable market was also open for business, and stocked with jolly red capsicums and other goodies we see only on occasions when people are doing a lot of festive eating.

By Wong Choon Mei, Malaysia Chronicle
Not only has Prime Minister Najib Razak made a complete U-turn from an earlier attempt to distance his Umno party from ultra-Malay rights group Perkasa, his trusted lieutenants now even say Najib’s prized 1Malaysia plan is not about racial equality.
The latest comments from Umno secretary-general Tengku Adnan were immediately denounced by Pakatan Rakyat leaders.

Jokes for the day: Mahathir goes to Hell
Mahathir suffers a serious heart attack and dies. With his track record, obviously he goes to Hell where good ol' Satan awaits his arrival.
"Yo man, I'm not really sure what to do," says the Devil." You're on my list, but I have no room for you. As you definitely have to stay here, I'm left with no choice but to let someone else go".
"Now there's three folks here who weren't as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you will have to take their place. But I'll let you decide who leaves".
Despite the conditions, Mahathir thought that it was good, so he agreed.
