Karpal, who is MP for Bukit Gelugor, has lodged a report at the Dang Wangi police headquarters on the incident.Accompanying him were Puchong MP Gobind Singh Deo and DAP advisor Lim Kit Siang. Karpal told reporters that the man had entered his firm about 12.30pm and handed over a yellow envelope containing the bullet and the note.

“I was at home when my clerk informed me that I had received the bullet and the note. “According to her, the man kept silent and left immediately,” he said, adding that he was worried for his safety.

He declined comment on whether the incident was related to his controversial remarks pertaining to the power of the Malay rulers. Karpal said this was the second time he had received a live bullet. In 1981, he received an M-16 bullet which was delivered to his house in Penang.

1mar2008.jpg A FEW hawkers and patrons at a coffee shop clapped when they saw incumbent Bukit Gelugor MP Karpal Singh approaching in his wheelchair on his first rounds in his constituency. Karpal Singh, who insisted on visiting constituents at the shophouses in Island Glades on Thursday despite the rain, was touched by the positive reaction during his 45-minute visit. “The response was encouraging. I really did not expect it. I am surprised at their understanding, as they had not seen me here for a long time. It is unfortunate that I cannot walk around like I used to,” he said. Karpal Singh said he was still able to serve his constituents, and they knew how to find him.

He said DAP recently opened a new service centre in Tingkat Tembaga, Island Glades, in addition to the existing one in Bandar Baru Air Itam, and he could also be reached through his legal firm at Green Hall.He added that if the three DAP candidates for the state seats in Bukit Gelugor were all elected with him, they could play a major role in assisting him to serve the constituents.The three are R.S.N. Rayer for Seri Delima, Wong Hon Wai for Air Itam and Yeoh Soon Hin for Paya Terubong.

Rayer accompanied Karpal Singh on his rounds as the area was within the Seri Delima constituency in Penang.

Earlier, at a press conference, Karpal Singh called on the Government to allow the opposition equal airtime on the radio and television, and mass media coverage, and to do away with campaigning through the press.
