By Haris Ibrahim Ee Chia, Arul and I got into Bagan Pinang late last night. Zorro, Gus and the others had gotten in earlier.
This morning, we were to assemble at the meeting point at 8am. Traffic on the road, however, was horrendous, so we parked and joined the others to walk some 5km in the rain to the nomination centre.  The state of the traffic en route to the nomination centre  Some of the many who legged it to the nomination centre We got to the vicinity of the nomination centre a little before 9.20am and found that it was going to be impossible to get anywhere close to the centre as the BN supporters had taken up position close to it  BN supporters up on a hillslope taunting the Pakatan supporters below  BN supporters closer to the ground level where the Pakatan supporters were and police appeared to have created a buffer zone between the BN supporters and the Pakatan supporters  FRU facing off the Pakatan supporters. Behind them was the buffer zone and then the BN supporters and were not allowing anyone other than the politicians through the buffer zone to get to the centre.  The Pakatan supporters just below the hillslope where the BN supporters were Just before 10am, BN supporters up on the hillslope started to pelt the Pakatan supporters below with mineral water bottles. Police reacted to issue warnings to the BN supporters. The Pakatan supporters, in turn responded with a chorus of ‘Altantuya! Altantuya! Altantuya’, ‘Isa rasuah’ and ‘Hancur BN’. I had difficulty estimating the crowd size of both the BN and Pakatan contingent of supporters. Sunny reckons that Pakatan supporters numbered in excess of 35,000 whilst the BN supporters numbered around 15,000. I think the numbers were much smaller. I’d put it at 15,000, at best, for Pakatan, and around 5,000 for BN. Kelab Penyokong PAS (KPP) members were there in large numbers, both from within the newly formed Bagan Pinang branch and elsewhere.  Was told they came from all over the country  Siva, extreme right, told me that the kelab in Bagan Pinang had just been formed but membership was slowly growing. He couldn't give me numbers, though At about 10.30am, members of the Kelab Penyokong BN (KPBN), replete with T-shirts and a flags, attempted to march in the direction of the nomination centre, but through the end where the Pakatan supporters were.  
The Pakatan supporters weren’t about to put up with this and blocked their passage. The KPBN boys finally backed off. Which brings me to the point that Arul made last night. One can understand the sense of the KPP, given that membership of the party is presently only open to Muslims, so that setting up a club for non-Muslims to support PAS was a stroke of genius. But a club for BN supporters? Read more at: http://harismibrahim.wordpress.com/2009/10/03/bagan-pinang-nomination-day-and-the-kelab-penyokong-bn/

Looking at the faces of these sorry spongers - they (KPBN boys) don't want to work except if it means only to show their faces and sit all day.
They pakai sarong dan baju Malayu as they coozzz into the masjid in somber mode pious they feel yet they (KPBN boys) are prepared to serve ALLAH and dirty corrupt men for pittance "Harram money".
Who tells them their ways and means have nothing to do with Islam - they can serve both Allah and wicked corrupt politicians at the same time.
