I am not a member of any political party and neither am I affiliated to one. Nor am I related to any politician.  I am merely trying to save my country from going to the dogs. And I really mean it. I appeal to all you Malaysians, please don't vote for the opposition.

The opposition is not only incapable of running the country, they will ruin it as well, especially Pas. Do we want to see all the hard work of our forefathers go down the longkang after 42 years. Don't be fooled by Pas's portrayal of itself as an Islamic party. Hiding behind the name of God is syaitan himself.

To all Muslims, let me tell you this for sure. Pas will not do any justice to your religion's integrity and image. On the contary, Malaysia will become like Afghanistan and Yugoslavia. Don't let the words of an old miang man fool you.

Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat is not an ulama. Ulamas do not get involved in politics. They are supposed to engage in the discourse and study of religion. And that is not what Nik Aziz does. Vote for Barisan Nasional because it has a proven track record and capable leaders like Datuk Seri Dr Mahatir Mohamad and it will also ensure that Malaysia will remain on the world map.

Vote for it to a landslide victory. Give it a victory margin even better than the first national parliamentary election in which the Alliance won 51 out of the 52 seats.
