Podcast: 100 seats is all it takes, says Guan Eng



In the sixth ‘Middle Malaysia' podcast, media consultant Oon Yeoh speaks to Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng who recalls what it was like days before the March 8, 2008 general election when he sang a line from a song (hint: It's by Glenn Frey and it reflects the mood of the moment).

NONEHe also recounts how it was like when he first found out that Pakatan Rakyat had won and it had just dawned upon him that he would become the chief minister of Penang.
Although he initially did not know what to do, he was certain that he would need to reinvent the chief minister's role.

Lim talks about inheriting a Penang that was nicknamed ‘Darul Sampah' because it was in such a dirty state and how the Pakatan administration is turning that around. He also talks about reforming the civil service, turning a "bane" into a "boon". He also reflects on some of the mistakes he made as chief minister.

KJ an 'arrogant Oxford boy'

He hits out at mainstream media for fabricating things about him, especially Utusan Malaysia which paints him as anti-Malay and anti-Islam. He recently won a defamation suit against Utusan precisely over this matter.

Lim has some particularly harsh words for Khairy Jamaluddin. Find out why he calls the Umno Youth chief an "arrogant Oxford boy" who is "not fit to be a father".

Lastly, he talks about the upcoming general elections and explains why Pakatan doesn't even need to win a simple majority to take over Putrajaya - 100 seats is all it takes, he says.
