Use indelible ink for Permatang Pauh By-election

Since the by election for the Permatang Pauh will be held soon, I would like to take this opportunity to resurrect the issue of the indelible ink once again.

SPR purchased the ink costing RM 2.4 million of the taxpayers’ money. Rather than letting it go to waste, we might as well use it for this by election. It would be most fitting that this election, which will most likely propel DSAI back into Parliament, will make history as the most transparent ever.

I would like Pakatan Rakyat to raise this issue in Parliament on behalf of the rakyat.

The rakyat would also like to know what action will be taken against the SPR Chairman, the Attorney-general and the National Chief of Police for misleading the public in a live TV telecast, into believing that there was credible evidence of sabotage, which prompted SPR to cancel its use. Being civil servants, their partisan action should not go unpunished.
