The DAP has formed a special campaign committee to assist PAS in the coming
Sanggang by-election, headed by the State Assemblyman of Triang, Leong Ngah
Ngah. Leong (also CEC member and State Secretary of Pahang DAP). Leong will
be assisted by the National Assistant Organising Secretary Vincent Wu Him Ven.
Mr Lim Kit Siang, the National Chairman of DAP is scheduled to lend his
support to the BA's candidate on Nomination Day together with other DAP
leaders and members.
Ronnie Liu, DAP National Publicity Secretary says that the party has sent
out notices to all DAP branches to mobilise members and supporters to help
PAS in Sanggang. He says the DAP will try its best to explain to the
Sanggang voters why they should reject Barisan Nasional and give their
support to Barisan Alternative.
Members and supporters who wish to help PAS can contact Leong Ngah Ngah at
019 9180489 /09 2554424 and Vincent Wu at 017 8862354. For accommodation in
Sanggang, they can contact Ng Kwi Ling at 010 9877103 or Woo Chee Wan at
019 2761931.
Ronnie Liu believes that the people in Sanggang by now would have a better
understanding of PAS, and they would not fall prey again to the propaganda
of falsehood and politics of fear launched by the MCA, Gerakan, MIC and
UMNO during the last general elections.
He believes the lifting of 10-year ban in pig farming and slaughtering
imposed by the BN government in Terengganu, coupled with the removal of
tolls and quit rent, approval of renovation plans for Buddhist temples and
churches in Kuala Terengganu and other positive policies have helped to
quash the lies and distortions painted by the BN parties. The PAS-led
Terengganu Government has demonstrated that PAS is in fact very sensitive
to the needs and aspirations of the people, and certainly more caring and
liberal then the BN government.
Ronnie Liu hopes the Sanggang people would take the opportunity to make a
great contribution to Justice, Freedom, Democracy and Good Governance by
giving their undivided support to PAS on 1 April 2000. A vote for PAS is a
vote for the Barisan Alternatif. A victory for the Barisan Alternatif is a
victory for the Malaysian people.
