Lim Kit Siang leads the surge into the Johor Fortress

http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/in-kit-siang-pakatan-gets-unexpected-boost-to-leap-over-johors-malay-wall/

A very good article on what may come on 5 May 2013. The impact of the ROS fiasco and the fielding of heavyweights in Johor coupled with the political wind of change in Singapore will buffet this UMNO-BN fortress. Whether it will be enough is left to be seen. 

However, I believe what I saw: the throngs of people who will never attended any opposition ceramahs in Johor prior to 308 are now turning out in droves as like in Penang just before 308. UMNO-BN will have their hands full in defending this last major bastion. 

While Pakatan continue their onslaught elsewhere in Malaysia, UMNO-BN has started the campaign pretty defensively and occasionally blows below the belt (pic below) and attacking with showers of gifts, money, free food and stuff especially in Penang and Selangor. And of course with the now infamous copying of manifestos and carrying up policies they used to criticize before (such as free 20m3 of water).
