JOHOR BARU (Jan
19, 2013):
Malaysian youths can lead the way to a prosperous and successful future for
Malaysia.
“There
are many who will be casting their votes for the first time in the coming
general election. Their votes count,” Johor PKR chairman Chua Jui Meng said.
Speaking
at the Johor Wushu, Dragon and Lion Dance Association annual Chinese New Year
Dinner here tonight, Chua said: “Our many dynamic youths are our future
leaders. They can influence the outcome of the 13th General Election
and determine the success of the rakyat
and country.
Chua … Malaysian
youths can lead Malaysia to success.
“Just
like the two Johor Kung Fu Xanda exponents who brought back gold and bronze
medals for Malaysia at the Asian University Games in Laos.
“They
achieved international success through their own determination and resilience.”
Chua
, who is also PKR vice-president, said the granting of blue identity cards by
the Barisan Nasional (BN) government to foreigners for votes was downright
cheating.
“The
only way to stop BN is for the rakyat
to rise. Peoples’ Power has seen many regimes fall in other countries.
“We
need the same power to down BN in the 13th General Election. It’s
the youths who can help make the difference and save Malaysia from the cheating
BN. Can you give us your 100% support?” he said to a round of applause from the
diners.
Chua
said it was crucial for the country’s socio-economic well-being that Malaysians
discharge their duty as responsible citizens by participating in general
elections.
“Make
it a turnout of at least 90% in the coming national polls to help decide the
next state and federal governments of your choice.
“The
future of the rakyat and country is
in the ballots that you cast,” he added.
