Surge in BN activity? Build-up to elections?

by Nathaniel Tan

Just a mild hunch, but I’m getting a slight feeling things are afoot.

30,000” for 1Malaysia in Ipoh, a surge of BM crusaders left and right, 50 percent broadband connectivity, green buildings, claims that Malaysians feel reallll safe on the streets, government acquiescence on EPF issues, and here’s my fave alarm bell ringer: anti-Anwar rumour mongering.

(with regards to the latter, take it from the former staffer: no hanky panky. get off it guys, come up with something newlah, boring edi).

Even the Pakatan guys seem to finally be sitting up and trying to look sharp. I’m heartened by today’s press conference, which shows at least some indication that the leadership no longer slumbers, and takes matters at hand seriously.

Maybe it’s just a post Bagan Pinang wave, and I’m sure there are plenty of reasons for BN not to call elections soon, but I think we should all be vigilant nonetheless for we will know not the hour nor the day.
