While much effort has been done to discredit DAP's action over the past, I would like to ask writers such as ET and Jenny Low what better alternative is there?

Do we see Keadilan and PAS actively pursuing issues that of communal and national concern?

DAP has a proven track record over the years. Their leaders have taken the bullet for the rakyat far too many times - either being incarcerated or held under detention without trial.

Where were ET and Jenny Low in the 1980's and early 90's? Where were the present Keadilan leaders whom were Umno members then?

The truth is, the people still remember Semangat 46. While Keadilan now rides under the banner of multiculturalism, the rakyat knows all too well who is the boss. Keadilan, since its inception, has proven very little and their ambivalent stance on the plethora of vital issues are at best, disgraceful.

Given the sheer manpower of Keadilan and its reputation as a body of young professionals, their contribution since inception is disappointing.

Haven't Keadilan learned their lesson from the Gaya by-election? Had Keadilan and PAS chipped in on DAP's effort, it would have been reasonable to argue that the outcome would have been much different.

Keadilan is nothing but superficial mush, with no proven substance. In the eyes of the discerning, Keadilan is made up primarily of disgruntled Umno members, and pays more to lip service than actual affirmative action (unlike DAP).

Keadilan should know their role as a party in its infancy. Malaysian values teaches us that the younger, more inexperienced should respect and give way to the older and wiser.

While I support calls to reform within the DAP, I would like to assert that Keadilan should be more gracious in terms of the seat allocation.
