  Kerk: I have no anger against Keng Yaik

Asked on the substantial number of votes gained by Kerk, Tan said it was a strong message that “delegates didn’t like the way that Keng Yaik approached this election”.
Former Wanita chief Rhina Bhar who failed in her first attempt for the vice presidency along with Tan also attributed the ‘cai tan’ to her failure to emerge as the first elected Gerakan Wanita vice-president.

The ignominious turnabout of the Gerakan President and Primary Industries Minister, Datuk Seri Dr. Lim Keng Yaik to support the ISA arrests of the eight reformasi activists solely based on hearsay without any hard evidence is most dishonourable and deplorable.
Suddenly, without any evidence, Keng Yaik has become a full convert to support the ISA detention of the eight, declaring: "The truth is that they were arrested for endangering the security of the country and not for political gains of anyone including the Barisan Nasional".
There is a need for all rungs of the Gerakan leadership to make clear their stand on the ISA and all the other repressive and draconian laws which Suhakam has acknowledged violate all international norms of human rights.

Kuala Lumpur: Gerakan President Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik, true to his nature of being colourful, jovial and unpredictable, sprang a surprise at the party's 35th Annual National Delegates Conference dinner Saturday by announcing that he would vacate the party position on April 8 next year, his 68th birthday.

Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik who passes the torch to the new Gerakan president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon today, is an intensely private person despite his very public career.
GERAKAN president, Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik seemed in a reflective mood, even a little sentimental.

Failing so means that these Gerakan candidates are not only misusing public funding for their own survival in their party but such acts are also regarded as malpractices in the private sector.

He was commenting on a news report Sunday, which quoted Gerakan President Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik as having asked political parties to discard the social contract formula agreed by all races in the country when Malaysia achieved its independence 48 years ago.

But if Tsu Koon is right and his stand reflects Gerakan party stand, then Keng Yaik and the other Gerakan leaders must have the courage of their conviction, regardless of the pressures emanating from UMNO.
Tsu Koon’s blaming the media for misreporting him has compounded the confusion, raising the question whether he has fully backed down from his call and is looking for an honourable political exit for himself, since he had not found any support whatsoever from the rest of the Gerakan party leadership.
Here we are saying the right thing (the effect of the 2-4-3) but our education minister is trying to take all of us for a ride with his “don’t want to understand” attitude.
