From Oon Yeoh’s podcasting adventures:
Our fourth Middle Malaysia podcast has us talking with MP, State Assemblyperson & Selangor Senior EXCO Teresa Kok. In this wide-ranging discussion, Kok addresses the criticism that she is wearing too many hats. She also answers the question of which role she would prefer to focus on if forced to choose between a state or federal seat. She shares why she believes it’s realistic for Pakatan Rakyat (PR) to win up to 1/3 of Sabah & Sarawak, and thus gain enough federal seats overall, to take over Putrajaya. She explains why 1Malaysia does not dilute PR’s multicultural message and reveals that seat negotiations in Selangor are concluded. She also gives us a sense of what a typical day and week is like for her. Lastly, she talks a bit about her upcoming book, “Partner in Democracy”, and the DVD that accompanies it.

The focus of Pakatan in this coming election is to take over Putrajaya. I do hope it is figuratively spoken. Currently,Putrajaya reprsents wastage, recalcitrant, corruption and arrogance. If Pakatan were to occupy that grandeu site upon taking over the government,my perception is that they are no different from BN. That place should be discarded and turn to a tourist attraction to remind the rakyat and tourist the abuse and extravagance by the former adminstration. Pakatan should be sited at significant
locations around KL that signify good governance promoted by our founding fathers. Places like parliament house, lake garden,etc. Just look at white house, blue house, istana negara spore which were built more than a century ago, are symbols that people around the world respect.
