Politicians should do such work throughout the year, not just during election or by-election periods.

The Sandakan by-election, to be held on May 11, pits DAP’s Vivian Wong against four other candidates with Linda Tsen of PBS expected to be her main challenger. Tsen was a two-term MP for Batu Sapi prior to GE14.

For instance, why did Wong choose to do this exercise only after nomination day? Why not before, when she was yet to be named as the DAP candidate? Since it is indeed a worthy project as cemeteries in Sabah are generally poorly maintained, would DAP then go on to clean and clear the Chinese cemetery at Labuk Road and the Christian cemetery nearer to town? Such general maintenance is usually reserved for Cheng Beng and All Souls Day as people pay respects to their dearly departed and honour...

I look forward to the day when politicians and political parties make this part of their activities throughout the year. It would show that they are not only helping the local councils and religious organisations keep cemeteries clean and beautify them, but more importantly, that they are giving the dearly departed some dignity and respect.
