I am not sure how long the campaign has been running but from the amount collected it looks like it has not caught the attention of the rakyat.
I have donated what is within my means and I can only hope the organizers will succeed in their efforts.

I heard the explanantions but I am not convinced. The question that comes to mind is whether the Gerak Independents will eat into the eats won by the opposition?
Yes, I accept this may sound like the naysayers – no doubt, the principle involved is good, but it looks like Gerak Independents will be contesting in seats held by opposition parties to have a chance of winning.

These are questions I’ll ask Matthias Chang, Dr. Kua Kia Soong of Suaram, Sarajun Hoda of Aliran and Dr. Syed Husin Ali, the renowned sociologist.

What is the federal government’s and that of any party intending to form the federal government, policy target and goal of inflation for the next 2 years?

Will the federal government’s and that of any party intending to form the federal government, conduct Quantitative and Qualitative Easing with Yield Curve Control to achieve that target of inflation?

If so, what are the measures in light of the Covid-19 economic impact?
