In the 2008 General Election, Malaysians have expressed a brave
and clear message to Barisan Nasional (BN) ruling coalition which
has been in power since 1957.
For the first time in the history of elections, BN was defeated in 5
states. The warning for BN was that if the rakyat are not happy
with their rule then the rakyat are capable and have the courage
to change even the Federal government too.
But it seems like, the BN government had turned a deaf ear to the
rakyats message. We are able to see that since the 2008election, the livelihood of the people has further deteriorated
under the BNs rule.
Subsidy of RM74 billion for the Rakyat have been
withdrawn, while subsidy for corporate of RM84
billion have been maintained. Prices of goods have
increased.
RM 28 billion had been stolen from the Rakyat
through biased contracts and
tenders. The amount is 20 times
the amount of Selangor state
annual budget.
The announced minimum wage of
RM900 is lower than the unions
demand of RM1500 and it does
not help to alleviate povertyamong workers.
Policies and Programmes under BN

There are no funds to assist workers when they are laid
off BUT there is financial support to save corporateentities.
Amended Workers Act 1955 (Akta Pekerja 1955) violates
workers rights.
FTA (Free Trade Agreement) with the US and EU will
destroy local industries and harm the rakyat.
Low cost housing (650 square feet) price increased from
RM25,000 to RM45,000 & the current affordable homes
are being pegged at around RM99,000.
Low quality low cost flats. Maintenance issues arebecoming more serious, with no government funds to
help in the maintenance of these flats.
Hazardous industries that pollute the environment and
endanger the Rakyats health such as Lynas were given
operating license

BN illegally seized Perak from PR! The votes for change by
the Perak Rakyat were not respected.
Pornographic video to slander Opposition Leader.
Racial and religious sentiment always being used to break
up the solidarity of Rakyat Malaysia.
Overtly dependent on foreign investors to develop the
economy.
BN does not prioritize production of local food source,very much dependent on imports.
Privatize public services and basis utilities water and
electricity supply, hospitals and education etc. Fee
charged to the public goes up with no enhancement in
service quality.

BN NO LONGER DESERVES TO
RUN THIS COUNTRY!
Due to this system, even though the country is rich, the peoples
quality of life is affected and reduced. The disparity of income
between rich and poor is increasing. The people have been
divided by issues of race and religion. Crime rate has increased.
The environment has been compromised and destroyed for the
benefit of the corporate.
Rulers live in luxury, while the
common people suffer!
BNs capitalist system has only prioritised profits for the
corporate. In addition, neo-liberal policies open the economy
to enslavement with the waves of globalisation. The
government has been competing with other countries to
attract FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) by offering cheap
labour with looselystructured laws, while
embarking on privatising
basic services such as
health and education.
Cronyism ensures the
political elites live in luxury
by awarding contracts andlicenses to themselves and
their cronies.

In the 13th
