Send the rocket to the moon, Hisham tells Johoreans

KLUANG: Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein has described the May 5 general election as different from previous ones as it would determine if Johor remained a heartland to Barisan Nasional.
He called on voters in his Semberong constituency and in Johor to foil DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang's efforts to gain a foothold in Johor by "sending the rocket to the moon".
On another matter, Hishammuddin said the allegations that he and his wife were aristocrats who did not mingle with Semberong constituents as being borne out of sheer ignorance.
The party which hurled such allegation against him and his wife, Tengku Marsilla Tengku Abdullah, was completely out of sync with the real situation on the ground, he said.
"I say, the allegation is a shot in the dark as they (the party) do not know how close my wife and I are to the people in Semberong. Only Semberong residents know and are aware," he said.
Hishammuddin was speaking at a goodwill session with the residents of Kampung Melayu Batu Empat, Paloh which was attended by Barisan Nasional (BN) Paloh state seat candidate, Teo Yap Kun.
