For the third leg of its state-wide roadshow, PKR visited two very strong Barisan Nasional strongholds over the weekend.
And we are glad to share with you that we have been able to penetrate these places and received very encouraging signs of welcome by the rakyat there. These pictures should be able to show you the reality on the ground and the tsunami sweeping over the entire state as one by one, BN bastions are opening their fortress doors to Pakatan Rakyat!
SATURDAY 29TH JANUARY, JULAU (Pakan and Meluan)
The PKR flag now proudly flies in the parliamentary constituency of Julau which covers the two state seats of Pakan and Meluan.

The rakyat welcomed us with traditional music.

The tuai rumah himself performed the dance of the hornbill slaying its enemies!

Rakyat who have not heard of reformation and change and the corrupt practices of the BN are now equipped and educated with the essential tools they need to make the right decision: INFORMATION in the form of printed materials and vcds.



We were told many rakyat were still afraid to show up for fear of backlash by their local YBs. However, their hearts are now keen for CHANGE.
Nevertheless, the two hundred people who did turn up consisted of many tuai rumahs, opinion leaders and new party members who will bring back information to their respective areas and longhouses.


Again, we hear of the same problems and issues affecting the people of Julau that are affecting the other rural areas in Sarawak. And so our leaders took the microphone and explained how PKR and Pakatan Rakyat will help them to resolve these problems and issues.

Mengga Mikui, Dr. John Brian Anthony, Baru Bian and Munan Laja.

Munan Laja, Pemancha Jenging, Steven Epay and Joshua Jabing.

Jimmy Donald, Bernard Ngumbang, Mengga Mikui and Dr. John Brian Anthony.

Wong, George Chen and Warren Aris.

PKR leaders explaining the real meaning of democracy and justice for all to the rakyat whose lands have been taken away and whose livelihood is now precariously threatened by the rampant corruption and mismanagement of state funds.




SUNDAY 30TH JANUARY, BETONG (Layar, Bukit Saban and Saribas)
On Sunday night, despite sabotage and dirty tricks by the BN, over three hundred people turned up at PKR's Chinese New Year gathering held in a street pavement in Betong town. PKR had no choice but to serve dinner on a street pavement adjacent to a coffeeshop because all the dewans and halls in Betong are under the payroll of the BN regime.
Never before has Betong, a BN stonghold and 'fixed deposit' controlled by Alfred Jabu for the past 30 years, seen a crowd this large openly attending an Opposition function held in public!
See for yourselves!




Even the nearby coffeeshop was filled with customers who listened to our ceramah!

Baru Bian with Abang Zulkifli Abang Engkeh and Stanny Embat.

Party leader Nicholas Bawin and ex-PBB supporter Pemancha Jenging who has tendered his resignation as a 'pemancha' because he said it is shameful that the BN government pays him a salary of "RM700 which is less than that of an Indonesian maid."

Mengga Mikui, Joshua Jabing, Dr. Christopher Kiyui and Datuk John Tenewi Nuek.

All stood for grace and prayers before the function began.

These are PKR leaders who are willing to stand in the street to bring the message of CHANGE!

Even the rain could not stop the tide of BERUBAHLAH! sweeping Betong!

Which BN leader will abandon the comforts and grandiose of an air-conditioned and carpeted hall and instead stand on a street pavement to speak to the rakyat in the rain? PKR leaders will and do! And Betong responded with loud and thunderous applause!

BERUBAHLAH! BETONG DAN JULAU!
