GE15: Kit Siang to voters: Create political tsunami with 80pc voter turnout

KUALA LUMPUR: DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang has called on voters to create a political tsunami with a voter turnout of over 80 per cent on polling day.

"In the two weeks from nomination day to polling day on Nov 19, the political equation has completely changed.

"The question is whether there is time to produce a political tsunami on Nov 19 to send Pakatan Harapan back to Putrajaya, with (Datuk Seri Dr) Anwar Ibrahim as the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia."

He said that a low voter turnout that will be advantageous to Barisan Nasional and Umno, as shown by the Melaka and Johor state general elections.

"Let the Malaysian voters tell the political leaders of all political parties on Nov 19 that if they are corrupt, then they should be in jail, like Najib Razak, " he said in a post on his blog today.

"Malaysians are not so short-sighted as Zahid who wants a general election to save Umno and BN leaders from being charged in court for corruption and being sent to jail," he said.

He also highlighted that the 15th General Election's objective should be to "stop the rot" in Malaysian nation-building and save Malaysia from deteriorating further, from a first-rate world-class nation to a second-rate mediocre country today, and to a failed rogue and kleptocratic state in 30-40 years' time.
