Last night I watched Debat Perdana on TV1 RTM.
The weekly debate on the Rukunegara where the BN uses its official broadcasting television station to allow UMNO’s politicians to slaughter the Opposition figures live on national television!
They will attack the hapless lone Opposition figure whom they will invite for a live on tv prime debate supposedly on the Rukunegara @ the nation’s national principles.
Can’t help thinking of ancient Rome’s Coliseum where Christians were sent to their slaughter at the hands of the ferocious lions kept starved and raving mad!
Yesterday’s victim was the DAP’s Secretary General , the recently released from prison, Lim Guan Eng!
He was like a lamb led to the slaughter.
Everyone was ganging up on the poor fellow.
RTM cleverly uses specially invited Police Recruits and students to applaud whenever the UMNO whips skewer the unwary Opposition figure selected to be slaughtered live on national television.
The scenario reflects the scene at the Coliseum where the victim is assaulted mercilessly and left ravaged right before the spectators!
Lim Guan Eng was mercilessly attacked left, right and centre by the UMNO whips!
This dirty smear tactic of the BN utilising RTM’s excuse of a Prime Debate is nothing more than a senseless killing of the Opposition live on TV1!
Bravo RTM! Bravo Bravo!!! You would make the Romans damn proud of your weekly carnage!

Guan Eng was foolish to take the bait in the first place. Unless the opposition member is a seasoned and aggressive speaker, s/he shouldn’t even attempt. Johan Jaafar is not, i repeat, not a neutral facilitator.
Rightly said.
I think the Opposition should not be so stupid as to allow themselves to be bullied live on national tv.
Everyone of us can see how ruthlessly the BN whips ridicule and embarrass the poor fellows who are a bit naive in thinking that this is their golden chance to voice out their viewpoints to the ‘rakyat’ freely!
Far from it, this mockery of a Prime Debate is nothing more than a ‘killing fields’ for the UMNO whips who want to further their political careers and apple polish their way up the BN’s corridors of power!
The Opposition would do better to stay away from this trap!
Me wonder when they are going to call Anwar Ibrahim,Nik Aziz & Lim Kit Siang to be on the panel??
You will have to wait for the sun to rise from the West! 😛
Johan Jaafar will never invite such folks and even if he ever does, he will surely be prepared with the worst of the BN’s whips!
I would really like to see Lim Keng Yaik, Samy Vellu or even Rafidah to be on the debate with Anwar Ibrahim or Kit Siang!
I don’t think Nik Aziz is the debating type.
The Debat Perdana is a sham! They never let the Opposition room to really speak out and will always cut off the fella when he starts to get going!
We all know that this debate is nothing more than a character assassination platform designed exclusively for the BN’s henchmen to further their cause!
