Maggi mee
I was in my early twenties when I was involved in the creation of Maggi mee advertising jingle “Maggi mee - cepat di masak, sedap di makan”. I remember mingling with bar girls and prostitutes in a certain part of Kuala Lumpur to study the habit of “local instant noodle” preparation and consumption especially after normal dinner time (10pm onward). Thus the Maggi mee slogan is well received and survived till today.
BN Maggi Mee project
In Ijok, Permatang Pauh and Kuala Tengganu BN “maggi mee” project is numerous but is not effective as the people can see through the BN strategy and ignore it.
What is maggi mee project?
These are Instant project, the BN say I will build a road from point A to point B. Then the bulldozer would come, followed by excavator, earth work, stones, roller - of course the road would never be completed during the duration of the election. After the election, the “road” is left uncompleted. This make the people very angry as it belittle their intelligence to be treated like unthinking and unknowing adult. They voted the BN instead.
Instant noodle project in Sarawak
This is very common. In the upcoming Batang Ai by- election, this instant noodle BN project can be seen. Suddenly Minor Rural Project, small road repair in front of long house, building materials will be delivered and many more will appear. These project are unplanned, ad hoc and therefor not sustainable.
Instant noodle project has no heart and no soul.
Its only objective is to fish for votes and how the people feel about it later does not matter. BN think that they can bribe their way and buy the Dayak feeling and vote unhindered.
This BN instant noodle project is cruel.
They bring hope for the people only for BN to play with their high hope. It is an act of an irresponsible government - a BN government without conscience for the damage they cuased to the people.
Now the people are losing trust on the BN government. The BN government would be quick to label this people as anti-development or worst still not united to support them. How do BN government expect to be united behind them after they have done all the “bad” things to the people?
Are the voters bought by BN Instant Noodle strategy
Yes to an extend. It goes on to “swearing -in of local counsellors” in Lubok Antu and many more activities organized by the Government Depoartment to help BN candidate. Who says that government servant are not involved in politic.
BN do not respect the wisdom of the people
The funny thing is that the BN government do not think that the voters can see their dubious intention. But now Dayakbaru is going to expose all those dirty tactics.
The government department talk about subsidies, government assistance for poor families etc. After the election is over, those same government servant will shut the doors to the Dayak community. Is that fair - to bring the people hope to a high then drop them like a rock into the river?
Will BN give Minor Rural project a priority in Batang Ai election
Definitely yes. BN campaigners have no Socio-economic plan to share with the people. The best approach is to allocate some Ministry money or even “cash” from Taib’s election chest - a few million and just give it out to impress the Dayak.
The Tuai Rumah would be caught in a catch 20 situation. Meaning if they support the opposition, they are seen as ungrateful and if they support the government their misery will continue. So most just sit quietly and do the minimum.
What I suggest is for Dayakbaru to explain these “catch twenty” problem.
The Tuai Rumah must be made to inetrnal the “Change we MUST” value. BN will continue to terrorize the Tuai Rumah - by black mailing them with allownace, promising the Penghulu position, threaten them with their children future education and employment. All these are mere words and Dayakbaru must be able to help the voters to see through this threat.
Conclusion
The BN Instant noodle is always made more delicious by adding the “tunu janik, cheap liquor drink, poco poco, Dayak entertainers ( no disrespect intended) because they will be paid for their service, the trip to Kuching and staying in hotel, guided shopping for the target few Dayak local leaders - all this will make the BN Instant noodle more tasty.
Dayakbaru - we will explain to the voters these dubiou short sighted scheme to fool our people in Batang Ai. We will put in new approach using phamplets, news letter, -to get our message accross. BN will try to starve the opposition of listeners and Dayakbaru must focus on getting the message to the voters.
Win we MUST in Batang Ai.
