4th October 2008, Mentaloon, Alor Setar
Today is Kedah Menteri Besar's open house at Seri Mentaloon, the official residence of the MB. This is the first time I attended Kedah MB's open house ever since. There was no opportunity for me due to lack of information. The announcement about the open house was declared on banners placed around Alor Setar town and maybe at all other towns of Kedah.
I arrived at about 2.00 pm and the area designated for the open house was swarming with people. Cars parked along the Alor Setar Jitra road on both sides stretched from Alor Merah to Pantai Johor a distance of nearly a kilometer on both sides. There must be plenty of food since I saw some tapau the food back home. At first my impression that this open house will be filled with PAS supporters since the MB is from PAS. I was dead wrong. I saw people from all walks of life from Malays, Indians and Chinese. A sight rarely seen when an event is hosted by muslim. All the ethnic groups attended and this is another example that all race has accepted the new government who took over from BN during the last GE. I think the Information Minister will say that these people who come to Kedah MB's open house because Ustaz Azizan gives free food and not because Kedahans accept and support Pakatan Government just as he boast the those 200,000 people who attended the PM's open house show that they support BN. What a Bullshit statement from our Info Minister.
