... at least the people that pay their salaries/perks, etc, get some back during a by-election. Below is an example and the latest one, too. Now, I wonder... should BN lose this by-election, will Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin keep his promise?
TIME WILL TELL.

Chinese schools in Teluk Kemang to get RM1.4mil boost
PORT DICKSON: Chinese schools in Teluk Kemang received a financial boost when Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin promised RM1.4mil for them.
He also promised to provide RM500,000 in funds for the Hoon Leong temple here.
The allocations were announced by Muhyddin during a dinner organised by the Chinese community at the temple here last night.
He said the allocations would be paid out by next year.
Among those who attended the dinner were Negri Sembilan Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan, Tourism Minister Datuk Dr Ng Yen Yen, Deputy Education Minister Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong and Barisan Nasional candidate for Bagan Pinang Tan Sri Isa Samad.
Isa, who came a little late for the dinner, was given a rousing welcome by those present when he walked in.
In his speech, Muhyiddin said the support of the Chinese community was important for Barisan.
“Nobody should be left out in the country’s development programmes.
“The Government appreciates the contributions of the community to the national economy,” he added.
Dr Ng said she would ensure that the temple would be included in the country’s tourism map.
She urged the temple management to add attractions such as souvenir stalls for tourists.
