Deputy Prime Minister Najib Tun Abdul Razak , while accepting the defeat of Barisan Nasional in the Kuala Trengganu by-election, said that the result was not a reflection of the people’s lack of confidence in him as the incoming premier.
Before the polling day, when launching the Barisan Nasional election machinery for the Kuala Trengganu by-election at the Islamic Civilisation Park, Najib said, "If they vote for the PAS candidate, he cannot be a deputy minister".
Now that Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh of BN had been defeated, therefore there would be no deputy minister for Kuala Trengganu in the words of Najib. If refusing the 'gift' of a deputy minister was a stupid act then Najib was smart with such a 'gift'. Therefore it was obvious that the 32,883 voters of Kuala Trengganu were stupid for rejecting such 'gift'. But if rejecting such 'gift' was considered smart then Najib was obviously stupid with such a 'gift'.
Considering the timing, the nature of the promise and the circumstances of the making of the promise, by any standard, it is in my considered opinion such promise of gift was a bribery. That being the case, the 32,883 were not stupid but smart for rejecting what they considered as bribery. But of course the more reason being that those voters did not have confidence in the BN to hold such mandate.
On the issue of confidence in Najib as the next Prime Minister of Malaysia taking over from Abdullah Ahmad Badawi this coming March, it is my opinion that the result of the Kuala Trengganu by-election is without doubt a reflection or expression of the peoples' rejection of Najib both as the incoming Prime Minister as well as their rejection of the Barisan Nasional. We Malaysians by and large are very mindful of the reputation of our leaders. Datuk Seri Najib is a very senior national leader, and therefore it is hard to believe that voters in Kuala Trengganu were not mindful of his reputation or in our local slang "would not want to give face" to him without cogent reason. Be that as it may, I am absolutely convinced that the voters of Kuala Trengganu were either had got fed up with Najib and/or the Barisan Nasional as a whole and/or that there was something so appealing that PAS can deliver that they had refused to "give him face'.
On my part, I like to congratulate Abdul Wahid Endut for having won the Kuala Trengganu parliamentary by-election and also Wan Ahmad Farid for having shown a good performance too. But most of all I like to congratulate the voters of Kuala Trengganu for expressing their views without fear.

Yes. Everything is possible. Sarawakians should learn from us in Malaya. We take their money, bribes, gifts, millions and presents and "assure" them of our votes. Once we proceed to the polling stations, we vote for Pakatan. I hope that day when Sarawakians will behave like Malayans is near. Take whatever Tahip Mahnuk offers you, after all it is your own money and taxes, but excercise your right in choosing the right people. In other words, reject BN outrightly because by bribing you as they do, they believe that all Sarawakians are simple minded folks who have no interest in their welfare and wellbeing. Malaya BN used to believe that but we woke up and we refuse to be put to sleep again. We have shown the way, I hope you people in Sarawak work hard and win. Start now, register now, mobilise now, educate now, engage now, visit now. Malaya PR leaders and supporters have been preparing for 2 years and learnt from their mistakes. Don't wait for the final days. Start beating the drums of the war now.
Once again the ballot boxes have spoken! KT folks have no trust and confidence in Najib. All his "hard work" in KT have come to nothing. Bet he is nursing his wounds now. History is repeating itself. The results of the previous general election and the last two by- elections with him as chairman have shown that he is no longer credible to lead.
However, its still not too late for Bn to make amends in Sarawak failing which they can kiss their arse good bye come the next election. They can start of with returning back what is rightfully ours being our NCR lands and our share of equity with SALCRA. Minimum of 35%+ as per the NEP to be backdated to the day of establishment of SALCRA. This is to be held in trusts for the benefits of the participants for improvement to their reapective communities. We can smell the wind of change coming our way in Sarawak.

Isu ba aku siku iya nya kitai Iban diatu, kitai balat begunaka parti sereta enggau pengari (YB)ke agresif,angkun, pandai,sensistif ka pendiau rayat.Ngambi ke chunto -menua Kapit, lama ga Sarawak udah meredeka , kenyau ari TUN JUGAH kelia sampaika diatu lalu bedau ga jalai alun ke menyana udah neresa menua Kapit.( Ukai ga aku bejaika pengari ari Kapit)Kati nya ketegal menua renyan, pikul,bebukit enggau beparung?Nya alai nya mih kebuah kitai nguna sida YB ke berani, nakal,sanggup berambun nama diri ngenataika penusah ke penguntung rayat.Reti nya prestasi enggau archievement YB Sarawak patut deka diperatika rayat.
