Another APCO to raise Najib's tattered image?

Free Malaysia Todayt (FMT) reported that a survey conducted by the IIUM concluded that the PM's popularity has been rising steadily since 2009 while those in the opposition camp are losing their charm. Is this a joke or what? or has umno employed another agency (after Apco) to do another image uplift before the 13GE? Is  FMT being used to hood-winked the public? I hope not or else FMT will be removed from my favourite bar. Anyway who are the 1500 respondents? Probably all from umno, mca and mic.
The mca claimed that the Malaysians overseas are out of touch with local news and are fed with distorted and false news by the online news portals. Hence they are not entitled to vote.
Prof Syed Arabi Idid of IIUM’s Communications Studies Department who led the survey, claimed that he has been conducting studies on the popularity of polticians since 1989 and that people are "finding Najib more acceptable as their new leader."
Where has this guy been? Talking about out-of-touch with local scenerio. No need to look for 1500 repondents. Hey Prof., just read the online news portal such as Malaysia Chronicles, Malaysia Insider or Malaysiakini and you will get first hand info. on the popular rating of the PM. and the Opposition politicians. Just check the number of derogatory remarks made against Najib and the praises heaped on LGE, Tok Guru and Datuk Nizar, just to name a few. What do you read then? The Star? NST? Utusan? And according to mca, these papers disseminate reliable news. Shheeeeeesh!! give a break!
