Yep, Koh and his coolies should all ride off into the sunset!
DAP chairman Karpal Singh is right to tell former Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon and his Gerakan friends to ride off into the sunset gracefully instead of immersing themselves in this media blitz to point the fingers at the current state administration under Lim Guan Eng.
I mean you were already being shown the door by Penangites, so leave already! And then all this pretentious ‘I do not want to meddle’ crap while you tell your Gerakan friends to issue this or that statement, most recently by Mark Ooi. Please lah, you think Penangites all blind and stupid issit?
In Karpal’s word (excerpt taken from Malaysiakini:)
Koh should not continue to claim credit for “the few good things” done during his 18-year tenure as Penang chief minister, said Karpal, but accept the reality that the days of his “pomp and splendour have come and gone”.
Yep, stop it already, Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon. Karpal dishes out more gems in Malaysiakini:
Karpal also described Koh as having been a puppet chief minister, whose administration had accommodated the demands and commands of Umno, instead of protecting the rights and interests of the people of Penang.
As a result, the post-election Pakatan Rakyat government has inherited an administration that is ridden with scandal and controversy.
“By virtue of having more seats in the state assembly, it was Umno calling the shots and was filching many prized projects during Koh’s time,” said Karpal, who is the Bukit Gelugor MP.
He reminded Koh (left) to be grateful to Lim for coming to his defence when Umno members openly demonstrated against him during the Tanjung Umno divisional meeting presided by party president Abdullah Ahmad Badawi in 2006.
“By then Koh should have stepped down gracefully, but he didn’t. Then the Penang voters had to (make sure that he did) so. Thus he should not interfere, and should retire and ride into sunset in grace and dignity,” said Karpal.
IMHO, it is time for sour grapes to be disposed of and those sore losers to really disappear. Enough is enough. Don’t they even know the meaning of sportsmanship?
You lost the match lar, so get lost. Don’t act all self-righteous, point fingers, blame the other team, blame everyone else, call the winning team names and in short, be a total arse. Just get lost.
We voters are so sick and tired of this pointless shenanigans by those sore losers be it Gerakan, Umno, MCA, MIC or whatever.
And of all the cheek, Koh has also said in the Chinese dailies that he is sure that Gerakan will recapture Penang in the next general elections. Wah, what confidence. This is after pointing fingers and acting all self-righteous.
We shall wait and see, won’t we?

When Gerakan lost its jewel
Koh was a gentleman in defeat
Attending the swearing in ceremony
Then showing Lim his office
This was about what he did
Later he couldn’t be called
Amidst many calls for him to discuss
His administration regarding certain matters of state
Suddenly I believe he was choked
By UMNO for behaving such a way
Now he does the roundabout turn
Dreaming of the day he will capture Penang
The tsunamai had come
Took away the dirt and what’s not
Leaving the trace of the shit behind
He can’t smell it I wonder why
Now he dreams of recapturing Penang
He better reads the mind of the people
It is game over Koh
It is time you close shop and go home
The new kid has arrived
He won’t go away so soon
The rocket goes to space
For long term imprinting footprints
Gerakan is finished
June 4th, 2008 at 9:47 pmThe errand boy has lost the game
UMNO too will follow soon
It is written on peoples’ minds already
