For this 13th general election, he will again move from Ipoh Timur to contest a seat in Gelang Patah, making it the 19th seat that he is contesting.
In total, Kit Siang has contested in 10 parliamentary and eight state seats. He has contested in Selangor, Penang, Malacca and Perak.
After fooling the people in four other states, this time he is eyeing Johor as his next target.
His nomadic actions of abandoning the parliamentary seats he has won does not auger well in serving the interest of the electorates. It is utter betrayal of the people who have put their trust in him.
He should be sincere in serving the electorates, and not abandon them and use them as a stepping stone.
It is like marrying one woman, then divorcing her and marrying another woman. If the number of times that he had contested is translated into marriages, Kit Siang would have gotten married 18 times.
Just a simple question. Would a man who is married for 18 times be someone who is credible, trust worthy, and responsible.
Who does Kit Siang think the electorates are? After having his way of satisfying his political lust, he abandons the people.
He should not go about treating electorates as tools, just to vote him in and to satisfy his political ambition.
For the record, Kit Siang suffered five defeats. They are:
Serdang state by-election in 1968
Bandar Hilir state seat in 1982
Tanjung Bungah state seat in 1995 (defeated by Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon)
Bukit Bendera parliamentary seat in 1999 (defeated by former Gerakan secretary-general Chia Kwang Chye)
Kebun Bunga state seat in 1999 (defeated by Dr Teng Hock Nan)
The Gelang Patah electorates should be mindful of Kit Siang’s ploy of constantly changing seats.
He knows very well that his constituents will eventually vote him out as he does not have a service record and has to resort to being a hit and run politician.
Kit Siang, please stop marrying more wives than you can handle. Age is catching up. It is time you retire gracefully instead of shamefully.
Don’t betray your loyal supporters by moving from one seat to another. And don’t be greedy. How much more pension you want from contesting more seats.
