EC's shopping list
The old Abdul at the Election Commission (EC) is truly a sandiwara king. His words are again Taflon-coated.
When the tender closed at 12:00hr today, we should know that EC did not shop for indelible ink. In June, the EC promised, in principle, to adopt the indelible ink in the coming general election as a preventive measure to weed out potential repeat voters.
In the call for tender that ran from June 25 through July 3, the EC was procuring for HB and 6B pencils, rulers, Double-A paper, paper-cutter, permanent marker pen, clip seal and wrapping wires, and stamp-pad.
No indelible ink. Was it because BN leaders had opposed it?
Comments
If his words already non-stick, even if EC one day decides to use indelible ink in the election, do you think it would stick? :)
Oh by the way, isn't Double A paper a brand name rather than a paper specification? Why are they narrowing it down to a brand? Hmmm, fishy...

What ever the old Abdul at the Election Commission EC) does still needs the approval of his political masters.

As we approach fifty, let us reflect on achievements. We have moved from emergency to integrasi, rusted shanties to KLCC, mud tracks to superhighways, north pole to south pole, mount everest to french submarines.
Now what have we to show beyond the calls of Merdeka so long ago? All those achievements reduce to a parliament of monkeys elected using HB pencils. Truly a Double-A achievement.
