Abdul Malik, founder and executive director of the Jersey City-based Association of Pakistani-Americans for Community Organization, says he's fed up with the career politicians running Jersey City.

Malik, a Jersey City resident for nearly 20 years, announced last week he's organizing "Voice for a Better Jersey City," a slate to run for at least four Jersey City City Council seats this May.

The primary goal of the slate, Malik said, is to stop the rampant nepotism and cronyism in Hudson County, especially in Jersey City.

"It is time for the people of Jersey City to vote for change," he added. "How long have we supported these foolish and stupid people?"

Malik, 50, who worked for a pharmaceutical company before going on permanent disability for a 1992 back injury, has never held an elected office, though he served on the city's planning board during a previous administration.

He's mostly worked as a community organizer, he said, meeting with public officials on matters important to the Pakistani-American community, which has included alleged instances of police brutality and mistreatment of Muslim women.

Voice for a Better Jersey City wants to restore the city's integrity, he said, noting Mayor Jerramiah T. Healy's scuffle with police during his Bradley Beach arrest and Councilman Steven Lipski's recent arrest on charges he urinated on concertgoers at a Washington, D.C., nightclub.

"We have seen their personal behavior. Take a look at this mayor. He has no decency, no character, no integrity and no passion for Jersey City," Malik said.

Jennifer Morrill, a spokeswoman for Healy, last night slammed Malik's "malicious and inaccurate account of what has been several decades of public service by Mayor Healy for the betterment of the people of Jersey City.

"We would gladly compare Mayor Healy's and his family's commitment and concern for our city and our people against Mr. Malik's any day of the week," she added.

Touting his eight years of public service, Lipski added: "Mr. Malik is trying to cloud the issue of productivity by pandering to the people of Ward C, but they'll see right through it."

Malik said he is running for one of the city's three at-large seats and is in the process of lining up other candidates.

Amazingly stupid man-child acts of common petty criminal nuisance should play no part in an all-important public service. Holding office should be reserved for the best qualified candidates.

These positions are not a charity but intensely important to the everyday lives of thousands of hard working residents who pay taxes for the best public service available. Don't be swindeled by fast talking politicians and rushed to print editorials demonstrating further poor judgement and lack basic moral judgement. There is far too much money involved in real estate developement and Jersey City politics to be trusted to those who demonstrate at best incompetence and even outright gross dereliction of duty and dishonesty.

Whata POS!



No shame! Pathetic, really.

He sits on the planning board and he was out with developer "friends"?

Resign or face the election results.

Councilman Puts Double-Dipping Issue Before Voters

- Lipski Quote -

Councilman Steve Lipski said he admired Mr. Fulop?s zeal but questioned his focus. Instead of concentrating on double-dipping, Mr. Fulop should take aim at elected officials who use their position to then obtain a lucrative government job, Mr. Lipski said.

?When he makes these proposals, it makes the rest of the council feel like we?re criminals and crooks and that we?re double-dippers,? Mr. Lipski said. ?I know a number of my colleagues work for the county or some other government agency, but I think only one or two had gotten their jobs after they were elected.?

- End Quote -

Tell us, do you know feel like a criminal?

my god, is this what Jersey City politics has come to?
He's a disgrace to the city. He should resign. Now, the cover-up. How can he be trusted?

Surely we have more qualified candidates than this!
