Tan Seng Giaw - Salt of the Earth

MM Online - Dropped as DAP candidate, Seng Giaw says will not defend Kepong (extracts):

KUALA LUMPUR, April 10 — Incumbent Kepong MP Tan Seng Giaw, who held office for 36 years, said he would not be defending his seat as an independent after DAP dropped him from the election.

Tan, who has held the Kepong parliament seat for eight consecutive terms since 1982, said he respected his party’s decision to move incumbent Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng to his seat in the 14th general election.

“Such is the fluctuations of politics and the decision made by party headquarters must be followed,’’ he told Malay Mail.

When asked whether he would contest as an independent and go up against Lim, Tan said no.

When asked further on whether he would help Lim campaign in Kepong, Tan said he would leave such decisions to the people.

“I will let the people decide and see what they want.”

However, Tan said he will continue to serve the people in Kepong and was humbled by the chance to do so.

“I still have my office in Kepong and people can still call me and make appointments to see me if they need any help. I'm here to stay and serve as best I could.

“In fact I just came back from an event in Kepong and there an unusual high number of people there today to see me,’’ he said.


Now, an eulogy to Tan Seng Giaw from an admirer:


Through times many a good man has sadly fallen
Not in honorable combat but by the hidden blade
Of blood stained Machiavellian hands oh so rotten
But whose time will 'come' too, whose fate'll fade

Goodness, righteousness all seem to be forgotten
Overcome by dark forces of greed and intolerance
By Helheim wolves, ravenous hounds misbegotten
Fed by gluttonous avarice from Dark Concordance

Will such Evil be given all their iniquitous free rein
To subdue, suppress & suffocate those of rectitude
Denying truthfulness by severing the tenuous skein
Of decency bound to an otherwise innocent attitude

But a Force monitors our actions, be it good or evil
Like a quiet accountant tallying our actions thus far
It measures, evaluates, records since time primeval
& remembers, never forgets, always fair, our Karma

    1. I would have been very proud to be an 'adopted' son of the great (late) Tan Sri Dr tan Chee Khoon otherwise known as Mr Clean and Mr Opposition. His real son, wakakaka, Tan Kee Kwong is a PKR man, having left Gerakan some years ago.

  2. TSG must have used the word "Kan Ni Leh" "Soh Hai" or "Soh Chai" or whatever on LGE causing the father to be flabergasted as any father would do?

    TSG uderestimated the effect of what "God, Glory, Power" can do to the evangelical leaders of the party?

    With the late Karpal Singh gone, it was left without any impediments for the eventual rise of the Evengelists to take over a socialist party and turn it into a Halleluyah party.

    As to why even CMH (Party founder) succumbed to the wishes of LKS, only Kuan Yin knows.

    1. Penang Hokkien is "Kan Nin Nare" (KNN), wakakaka

      "Soh Hai" is not Penang Hokkien

      The Evangelists in DAP are in ascendancy and very dangerous - we have to sort them out soemhow

    2. How to sort it out when No1 and 2 are closet Evangelist, and much of their backline are born again Christians? As I said b4, the DAP you knew no longer exist. Sad but cruel truth.

      Oh and "Sor Hai" is Cantonese. Probably an offshoot of "Ma Chau Hai". Wakakaka

    2. Ya...I can understand why it is not a concern for you.

      You also obviously have no interest in holding the Ruling Regime accountable.

      But....for an Opposition MP that is a career ending attitude.

  5. kt, if helen feel sympathetic to tsg n sound critical towards lks i can understand, u? very hypo.

    the pac might not have enough proof to implicate najib, but i suppose it oso dun have evidence to clear najib of all responsibility. tsg emphasis on the former n keep mum of the latter signify that he already become a llt, n that is oso y the mainstream news outlets include that liar site often refer his view as evidence najib not involved. n since when dap shown all evidence of all their allegations along the years since they never have access to all this so call sensitive information?

    if u read carefully monster n mine writes, we never really said anything bad abt tsg, merely imply that tsg put dap in a difficult situation.

    reading yr writes only tell if u r not a dedak eater, then perhaps u r a stupid wakaka.
