Elevated to State Assemplyman's Wife

We met up with one of our MU Ex-Fifth College friends in our recent trip to KL on 18 April 2008. Not much changes except now that she is the wife of a DAP State Assemblyman for Damasara Utama in Selangor. Her compliant: We meet less often as he is out early in the morning and return back late at night.

Syabas to Dr. Cheah Wing Yin who has to shoulder on as a politician and a practising psychiatrist at the same time.

Malaysia will be a step forward if some of his ideals are realised.
“We have a historical duty to renew our struggle for a Bangsa Malaysia. However this contest must not be seen solely from the perspective of political rights or social injustices but also from the economic perspective of wealth creation and distribution. Malaysian First is a continuation of Malaysian Malaysia with equal economic opportunity as its central core. 
Equal opportunity is not just giving everyone the right to study, the right to work, right to spend what is earned, right to own property and have the state as a servant and not as a master but also about our obligation to help the needy. No one is fated to be poor just as no one is entitled to wealth. Social justice gives everyone the opportunity to improve their standard of living. 
We must free up the potential of our greatest resource - our human resources. We must empower every Malaysian with economic freedom and equal opportunity to achieve the great Malaysian Dream of success through hard work and ability. 
If we succeed, we can transform Malaysia into a united nation identified with a common destiny sharing values of democracy, freedom, justice, integrity and human dignity. If we fail, we have a sham democracy that can not differentiate between right and wrong.”
