LETTER | GE15: Opposition must unite to beat BN

LETTER | There is no time to be lost. Anwar Ibrahim, Lim Guan Eng, Mohamad Sabu, and all others battling BN must unite now or face more than defeat.

The machinery mounted by BN since the Sheraton Move is gargantuan. Don't anyone dare underestimate. The call for an election prematurely seals the truth.

This GE15 season is not about your political philosophies. It is not about your egos. It is not about getting a slice of the cake.

It is about Umno's survival or the doom of opposition parties.

So, the opposition leaders must marshal their unity beyond their respective party priorities.

But even as Parliament is dissolved on a public holiday, mind you, we are yet to see a strengthened, united, formidable opposition.

Please give the voters a promising option or see the votes banking on BN.

Unite to give the resurrection to failed promises.

Unite to give change a chance.

Unite to ignite hope like never before.

At this helm is Anwar. If the unity thrust collapses, you Anwar, like it or not, must take the blame.

Stop preaching to the people to vote wisely. It is not enough. Give them convincing evidence of a united front that can reset Malaysia.

We do not need to be told further stories of corruption. Who does not know?

What the voters need is a promising, worthy leadership that can help them take on BN and emerge champions of a nation that has suffered for too long.

Every single political party that is challenging BN must converge. It is not a choice. It is the ultimate.

Do it right or wither away in the political wilderness of post-GE15.

For sure if BN returns with a two third's majority, they will be the political chariots of war against the opposition.
