Chong Wei used by BN?

Hero in hot demand!


Well, to me, that's the case! Why the heck must our badminton hero be flown to Permatang Pauh to receive his RM300,00 reward for a Olympic Silver? That's abuse of power!

Totally unnecessary to use a national hero to fish for vote. Not to mention a waste of taxpayers' money for all the flying around by the big guns of BN. So now BN (UMNO) can show the world that they are not racist? C'mon.... you can do better than that!

I'm personally a bit disappointed with Chong Wei. To be fair he has said if Anwar were to invite him, he'll go there too. But why can't we leave sport as it is? Politics should never ever encroached into sports or education territory at the 1st place. Just because Chong Wei got a silver, the candidate(s) would want to rub some of his 'ong' so that he can win in PP?

Arif Shah has denied Chong Wei's presence as a political gimmick. Either he's right or BN has got a lousy sense of timing.

Anyway, with or without our Olympic silver medalist, I think deep down inside he knows he's facing a uphill battle. Come August 26th, we'll know if Chong Wei's 'ong' works or not......
