Is the MP for Penang Jelutong seat Jeff Ooi throwing in the towel after four months?
I have follow Jeff Ooi blog Screenshots during the time when he is just blogging. He had faced a law suit and several encounters with the laws due to public comments posted at his blog.
His blog is listed in Malaysiakini top choice blogs section.
His latest posting Due Recognition, listed on Malaysiakini caught my eye.
The first paragraph which I quote here;
I witnessed my first ever, and probably the last, investiture ceremony this morning. It's in conjunction with the 70th birthday of the Governor of the Penang. The total list of award recipients was capped at 497, compared with the generous spread of 1,272 last year under the previous BN administration.
When you read the first half sentence,
I witnessed my first ever, and probably the last, why "probably the last".
If he were to serve the full term, there will be at least four more ceremonies on the birthday of the Governor of the Penang before the 13th GE and only assuming that Jelutong will fall back to bn.
A very clear indication that he may not be serving the full term. I am from Penang and had seen and shake hands with him several times during the 12th GE. If it is true DAP must act quickly so as not to lose such a great person.
I hope I am wrong and should any of his close buddies who are reading this post can come out with a confirmation.

Well, it is not easy being an MP living in K.L & having to commute to Penang every week.
I can just imagine....
Working one's gut out, day in day out to assist one's Leader in Penang, keeping in touch with the Party, the Penang People & having to attend Parliament with all the questions prepared & submitted to Parliament...only to be told by the Dewan Speaker that you only have 5 minutes to present your question/s, gets rejected or most of the time your question time gets hijacked by BN MPs.
It is most frustrating for the new MPs. Even with seniors like YB LKS, YB Karpal & YB Datuk Seri Wan Azizah.
My congratulations to YB Jeff for his good work & hope he perseveres to achieve the rayaat's aspirations/expectations.
