GELANG PATAH (Feb 18, 2013): Johor PKR
chairman Chua Jui Meng’s fifth leg Gong
Xi Fa Cai distribution of mandarin oranges to Johoreans today covered the
mammoth Taman Teratai Pasar Malam
(Night Market).
It
was also another day-long campaign by Chua and his supporters for PKR in P.162 Gelang
Patah.
It
was a grueling round of walkabouts with Chua extending warm handshakes
and greetings to about 20,000 Johoreans.
The
state and Gelang Patah campaign team kicked off the trail at 2pm in Pekan Ulu
Choh and Kg Bahagia.
At
4pm, despite the rain, Chua and his supporters and campaigners spent about
two hours in Taman Sri Pulai.
At
6pm, the entourage was forced to take a break following a downpour at the Taman Teratai night market.
Chua
and his team then distributed mandarin oranges at a row of shophouses.
When
the rain stopped pouring at 7.30pm, they hit the pasar malam trail where Chua extended handshakes to some 15,000
people until 10.30pm.
Some
10,000 leaflets, in Chinese and Bahasa Malaysia, containing information on the ills
of Barisan Nasional (BN) were also distributed.

Chua
urged Johoreans to go for change in the coming 13th General
Election.
“The
blatant corrupt practices by BN must be stopped. After 55 years, the rakyat cannot hope for BN to mend its
ways.
“Give
us (Pakatan Rakyat) a chance to serve you and the nation for a term. See what
we can deliver and then judge us in the 14th General Election,” he
added.
