Speech - Teluk Intan By-election
by Lim Kit Siang

(Pasir Bedamar New Village, Sunday): At the DAP Teluk Intan by-election ceramah two nights ago, I said the voters of Teluk Intan has a tryst with history, for on May 17, they could be the conscience and the tribune of the nation and all Malaysians to demand for a better nation and government not only for themselves, but for all Malaysians and future generations.

The voters of Teluk Intan have the opportunity to write history and create a miracle on May 17, although the DAP is not given any chance to win the seat at all, as the Barisan Nasional had won this constituency with a landslide majority of close to 14,000 votes in the 1995 general elections.

Whatever the final outcome of the Teluk Intan by-election result on May 17, let the voters of Teluk Intan stand on the side of history by speaking loud and clear on behalf of Malaysians of all races in all parts of the country their fundamental demands, aspirations and stands.

The people of Teluk Intan should make the Teluk Intan by-election even more meaningful and historic by adopting Ten Fundamental Demands and Aspirations of the Teluk Intan by-election for all Malaysians.

These Ten Fundamental Demands and Aspirations of the Teluk Intan by-election are as follows:
