@Anonymous malaysia2018 : Did you not read S Arutchelvan article completely or did you fail to comprehend his central argument? You went off on a tangent with the irrelevance that had nothing to do with S Arutchelvan's or PSM's "arrogance" or his need to be Mahatma Gandhi or emulate anybody else for that matter. He simply pointed out the limits of what PSM can do. He was at least very honest. Which is more than I can you for you with your grandiose pretense in writing irrelevant bullshit. PSM has built a foundation; it has been trying to build its membership, but what are its chances in stupidly conservative, stupidly traditionalist, stupidly brainwashed, and stupidly uneducated Malaysia when you harp on about all the wrong things when he is saying exactly what I am telling you: that when it comes to leftist parties like PSM, people like you turn away from it because of its socialist program. If you prefer the cowboy capitalism of Malaysia where corruption forms its kernel, where your UMNO-BN robs you blind day and night, where your Harapan is mired in its own ridiculous self-inflicted failures, why don't you throw your wholehearted support for one of them and stop sledging a party like PSM that is being forthright with you about its agenda and its shortcomings? PSM may be old and "not grown" is a dumb claim when you failed to understand its limitations. Harapan parties are "young" run by old people long in the tooth sounds like a pathetic by typically jaundiced and unjustifiable excuse.

Sadly and regrettably, PSM is in dreamland.IF it is really strong, it should contest in all 222 Parliamentary seats. What is the point of fighting on one leg--Sungei Siput ? IF you want to push your agenda an dget heard, go for ALL seats; and see whether you will fare well or badly. Shouting in the wilderness will not help. Usually , young people are idealists. But we are living in a real world with real issues. We may profess some philosophy; but philosophy is good for discussions and debates; but it does not help ordinary people with ordinary issues. Why demand attention? Humility , not arrogance, makes a man great. Emulate Mahatma Gandhi, the humble man of India, who won Independence from the British through non-violence.Emulate the late Nelson Mandela of South Africa who was imprisoned for 28 years. And when he became President of South Africa, he did not show arrogance but forgiveness to the Whites. He did not take revenge against the former White masters. Note also that in PH there were some who felt that they should be given "safe " seats! And there were others who showed their true colours when dropped! That is gratitude for you!Seats are limited; and in PH, there are so many from each component Party who wish to be picked! Even among themselves there is a tussle for seats! So, how to accede to PSM's request ? Yes, you may point to ex-Bersih Maria Chin! Well, she has wide appeal, which will help PH! So, it is pointless to whine ! As I mentioend above, IF you are strong in many areas, go for them on a MASSIVE scale! Why go for one or two seats? . Why "beg " for seats ? Stand tall; lay your foundation. Build up a credible force. No point waking up when election is near! DAP, for example, was founded 50-odd years! PKR has been here more than 20 years.. Of course, PPBM and Amanah are young Parties . But one is an off-shoot of Pas; and the other by ex-PM Tun Dr, Mahathir.PSM, though old, has not grown!

So has the central leadership decided to use pkr logo or not? Jayakumar is needed for Malaysia not for psm pkr dap or others. Soldiers lay down their lives for a cause. Is PSM a Malaysian soldier?
