Isa Samad is BN candidate in Bagan Pinang

September 29, 2009

PORT DICKSON, 29 Sept 2009: Former Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Tan Sri Isa Abdul Samad, 59, is the Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for the Bagan Pinang state by-election.

The announcement was made by Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin at the BN operations centre here today.

The by-election is scheduled for 11 Oct, with nominations on 3 Oct.

The seat was won by the BN with a majority of 2,333 in the last general election, but it fell vacant after the death of Azman Mohammad Noor.

PAS is expected to announce its candidate tonight. — Bernama

    Again, Umno chose a corrupted leader as candidate. Shame on Umno, the biggest party in Malaysia. Only money and corruption are left.

    The Umno/BN is sending another sacrificial goat to the Bagan Pinang state by-election. This time it is represented by “buy-election” specialist, the formal NS MB Tan Sri Isa Abu Samad! Well done again, Muhyiddin!

    It seems that only those capable of corrupt practices can survive and emerge in today’s Umno. Shame on you!

    Once again, syabas to Umno for choosing a true representative of what it stands for and “represent”.

    Isa with his impeccable track record in money politics represents the “best and true colors” of Umno.

    Syabas, Umno!

    Isa will be continuing his sin if he is elected.

    It was not difficult to [predict] this would happen. This has been the defiant psyche pattern of our deputy prime minister, if one were to follow the psychology of his political life: of choosing the odd, the rotten and/or the opposite; of taking unnecessary high risks; of heading “disaster zones with accelerated speed” to show his power and control.

    We have leaders with such a primitive and illogical mind governing us. What the future holds for us remains the greatest mystery. Learn to live in faith day by day!

    This is a confirmed corrupted politican, no matter how Umno dresses him […] More importantly, this by-election is not about the candidate (Isa) but about the BN (political party), especially Umno and what it represents. I will vote for an alternative to Umno. There is no BN when Umno dominates. The MCA and MIC are just mere lapdogs of Umno. Many do not like PAS, but [Umno is disliked] more.
