Can they deliver, but what are they selling..?

If it ain't moving then I would not be buying what they sell. If it ain't true then how could it be right? Politicians should adopt the principle of selling in trying to deliver something. To the masses, seeing is believing. And it would be strengthened if it is a face-to-face situation where quality of interactions and long term relationships are more assured. BN has another 4 years to see everybody on the ground. If the leader happened to be in town, then have a public rally like Ghafar Baba and Tun Razak did with their `perhimpunan raksaksa' at padang Temerloh, Pahang. I was there and the crowds were truly thrilled with them and their speech. Despite that, the opposition was also being given the same opportunity to have a public rally. I have seen Ahmad Boestamam and Kassim Ahmad at a public rally in Temerloh and Kuantan. But Tun Razak and Ghafar Baba has proven their worth at every public rally across the nation. Being closed to the heart of the rakyat, BN won the election. So what is holding BN and UMNO leaders to do the same thing? Oratory skills? One day when the population of Malaysia reaches 50 million, no dewan can accommodate the million of voters at one place and at one time. The speech and the campaign has to be made public. John F Kennedy and Obama has that oratory skill that can electrified million of audiences. And it goes without saying our leaders must have that skill too. But have they?
