MATCHING VOTER EXPECTATIONS WITH WHAT PARTIES PROMISE



What Educated Urban Voters Expect

1.  AGGRESIVE tackling of crime, reducing the crime rate, securing the safety of citizens and families as they pursue their daily lives.

2.    END to race- biased, divisive policies and consequent handouts.

3.    EQUAL opportunities and level playing fields for all Malaysians, irrespective of ethnicity.

4.    MORE civil rights, social reform and repeal of draconian laws like the Internal Security Act.

5.  RISING costs of living, the mismatch between the high cost of supplies and foodstuff and stagnant wages.

MOVING away from ideas of minimum wages, but a meaningful decent living wage to overcome urban poverty.

7.    GOOD governance.

8.    GOVERNMENT institutions such as the Police, Judiciary, MACC and Enforcement agencies should function in a more trustworthy, independent and transparent manner. They should not be misused as instruments of the state and for political agenda.

9.    PRUDENT transparent management of taxpayer’s money.

1   END of monopolies and protectionism which seem only to benefit a small segment of the politically-connected, such as Proton.
