The impact of election to me...~

I am cramping my brain with this corporate communication assignment, when I finally needed a break and read other people blogs. The result: An even more twisted brain. Especially regarding the election. Yes, I admit I didn’t fulfil my responsibility and vote, because I was a) too lazy to register b) clueless on who to vote c) thought nothing will change if I go out and vote. My (c) reason had proven me wrong. I thought I am not a BN supporter anymore, but to see 5 states lost to the Opposition really shocked me. I felt sad somehow. Admittedly again, I am a patriotic person, and history really teaches me about life. And this result creates new history. How BN never lose as badly as this. It alarms me of 13 May 1969. But with police enforcement on street demonstration, hopefully that bloodshed memory won’t repeat itself. And I really hope our people mentality has changed. Well, they support Opposition strongly, that surely is something new. Anyway, I agree that Pak Lah and co. needs some serious wake up call. Especially the ‘beloved’ MIC president. And how I thought with age comes wisdom. Maybe in his case, more to nyanyukness. Lol. No pun intended, just honest opinion. Anyway, Indian community had said it all. The same goes to Chinese. Even Malays. I just hope the Opposition stays true to their words. And I’ll promise myself (and my mother, uncle, aunties, atuk sedare) that I will vote the next election. Now I realize how big of an impact it brings. Well, in my case, the ‘with age comes wisdom’ applies. Tehee. Or more to ‘with lessons come conscience’.

Anyway, I am indeed sad my beloved Tun Mahathir words were neglected by the government. He had done so much to our country and I respect him above all other leaders in the world. Call me pro mahathir or mahathirisme, but I grow up listening and watching his contributions to the country. Hey, he’s not perfect. Maybe there was cronisme and corruption, but there was no racism issue, no insecurity of living in this country (not to me anyway. And to most people). And I found that perfectly acceptable. And he’s proven the people respect him still by having the other states beside Kelantan and Terengganu under his reign. Thus, I respect his opinions. And advises. And anyway, I prefer Mukhriz than Khairy Jamaluddin because I know he has a credible negarawan as his advisor. Ok, I guess I have voiced out my feelings after election. I hope Malaysia will always be a country I never ashamed of calling my home, despite all this political propaganda. Amin.
