Election Fund Raising
Recently a very nice and friendly forumer I have known wrote me an email and requested that I give some financial support to YB Hannah's campaign fund for her reelection. I like YB Hannah's work and I fully support her for reelection as ADUN Subang Jaya if she chooses to stand again. I will even support her if she stands as MP for Kelana Jaya (which includes SJ/USJ)
I replied to our friendly forumer then that while I support YB Hannah, it is been a bitter experience for many of us from USJ/SJ the last GE12... at that time many of us actively solicited funds for the candidate who was strongly rumored to stand for MP Kelana Jaya, YB Jeff Ooi...
Even when he was then rumored for Serdang because Yap Pian Hon was sidelined... I was still collecting election funds for him, RM2-3K per person....
I am very good at begging for money, at least for elections from my friends... but somehow I feel very sad after what happened the last time. YB Jeff Ooi went to stand in Jelutong and even people like me could not reach him... he just doesn't pick up phone calls nor returned my call... in fact we were supposed to have teh tarek in Penang, where I live now, on May 3, 2008! He never confirmed and didn't show either.
If he thinks we are after him for projects or whatever, forget it lah YB. The money we gave you more than the profits we could make building longkang for Jelutong market lah....
So I hoep YB Hannah understands why some of us just don't have the enthusiasm this time around, blame it on YB Jeff Ooi... kacang lupaka kan kuliT!
He who knows, knows he knows, he is wise;
He who not knows, not knows he knows not, he is a fool;
He who knows, not knows he knows, he is asleep, wake him up!
