PR supporters to march to nomination centre via Jalan Abdullah

SEGAMAT (April 19, 2013): Pakatan Rakyat (PR) supporters and campaigners will have to march to Dewan Jubli Intan Sultan Ibrahim via Jalan Abdullah on Nomination Day tomorrow.
The Dewan is the nomination centre for the P.140 Segamat 13th General Election. Polling is on May 5.
The route was fixed by police yesterday.
Johor PKR chairman Chua Jui Meng is scheduled to be at the Dewan at 7.30am. The Election Commission (EC) has fixed only an hour (9am to 10am) for the nomination of at least six candidates, in the absence of Independents.
EC’s returning officer is expected to announce the confirmation of candidates at 11am.
Chua has appealed to the people of Segamat to turn up at the Dewan to support PR candidates.
“The people must not be intimidated and we are now fighting as underdogs because of BN’s abuse of the government machinery.
“Please come out in full force to send a message to the BN that the people is the boss and it is BN that should fear the people,” he added.
