Kedah Gerakan Chairman Dr Cheah Soon Hai today criticized the mass gathering of BERSIH 2 in Kuala Lumpur to be a complete slapstick comedy which is totally meaningless.

Dr Cheah feels that the event is part of Pakatan Rakyat’s plot to create an illusion, mainly to give foreigners a false impression that Malaysian politic is in a huge mess.

Dr Cheah said, “If Pakatan Rakyat feels that the Election Commission of our country is unfair, then how did Pakatan Rakyat manage to win the political power for 5 states in 2008 General Election? Pakatan Rakyat has even achieved one of the best successes in the record of history in the latest Sarawak state election. All these incidences are solid enough to prove that the Election Commission is absolutely fair and unbiased in all its proceedings.”

Dr Cheah who is also Kedah Derga state assemblyman said, “If Pakatan Rakyat is seriously thinking that the Election Commission is unfair and bias, then they should reflect their opinion using the proper channel. Now that Pakatan Rakyat is holding more than one third of the cabinet seats, they could easily reflect this matter in the parliament, what for they tarnish the image of the country by creating protest in the street which is an utter waste of energy and money?”

Last but not least, Dr Cheah emphasizes once again that if Pakatan Rakyat is unhappy about anything at all, they should reflect their dissatisfaction through the members of parliament during parliamentary meeting and not making any movements which could have negative effect on the country’s image.
