Meeting DAP's Perak Team.....24th Feb 08

Really ..this is the 1st time ever i've made an effort to attend a ceramah...and i was so so very early...this was the Chin Woo hall at 630pm yesterday evening...there was a DAP team that had just put up the flags , wired the outer speakers and so on...in the hall was just one elderly lady at the door...

..so i took a walk..( see earlier post) and later...around 730pm.... a bit more audience now..alot of the crowd that walked in looked like they just came in after dinner...mostly mid 40'ish++..no yuppie types nor younger ones...generally mostly senior....."been thru the hard times" type...mostly chinese..didn't notice any malays...smattering of Indian...


..@ 745pm..this guy shows up..selling newspapers and 'mar piew' .. he was sold out within 5 minutes...great sales strategy..

..then this distinguished gentleman M.Kula shows up..... the speeches start soon after ..the candidate from Buntong , Canning , Tronoh ........and the other DAP Perak candidates ..

.. a short while later...Fong Po Kuan arrives...i like this lady...young ...great oratory skills...literally chased Ong Ka Chuan out of BG....& her opinion of "abdullah badawi..he does not work at all...." and the audience applauses...i'm glad she changed her mind...mind you she looked pretty tired to me (pls don't enlarge the photos)....so there is alot of dedication involved here....

..well there is no free lunch ..or show........

by now the hall is packed.....@ 9pm...'Uncle Lim ' arrives....everybody stands up and wants to shake his hand...


..with Uncle Lim on the microphone..inside the packed hall...

..outside the hall.....taken from the NSTP office....

..audience outside viewing Uncle Lim 'live'....

..Uncle Lims's speech last night has today been posted on his website....Overall the turnout was good..however i feel it could be a lot better if the opposition is given more newspaper media coverage..

...well ..lets think about that and make the right choice when the time comes.

cheers!
