General Elections 2008 : Backlash
Hoohaaa..!~ Been very busy to update my puny blog but, here goes. If you've been following the papers or the media, you shud've known by now the results. Most shocking result in 4 decades. BN denied 2/3 majority in parliament. BN lost 5 states to oppsitions. Cabinet has just been announced today. Very interesting list as some 'veteran faces' are missing namely the big fat rafidah and semi value. Many changes which kind of looks promising on paper. But i still have my doubts. I'm not one to comment on that.
Being Malaysian, the people or 'rakyat' seems to be happy with the results. It looks quite promising for the rakyat, and it shows the people up there that democracy still rules. I could assume that this backlash is due to the fact that the people are somewhat sick of all the fiascos the people up there in the government pull one after another. I dunno what kind of people are they inside. Do they have the heart at all to be leaders of a country? Blame it on the rumors you say? As the saying goes, 'there's no smoke unless there's fire'. I dunno. I'm not being biased. I have my reservations.
Look further down below, there're still no changes yet to anything at all. The living standards are still the same. Neccessities prices are still high. Petrol prices still high. Ringgit is still not strong againts USD, overseas investors lost interest in our country, the rich are getting richer, the poor are still struggling, and the middle class? They're the one doing the hardwork to make ends meet.
In every election, oppositions prepared themselves to challenge and to lose. But this time round, tho BN still won, they still managed to deny 2/3 majority. Now that gives a better voice stand in parliament. But question is, how would they measure up? I wonder if they could really deliver. LIke i mentioned before, their campaigns are kiddy park bust ups with all the name calling and back stabbing - well most of em anyways. Lets all hope they deliver and not just sit around doing nothing but then again, isnt that what they're good at? har har. Hope. Thats a big word for everyone.
I'm lazy to type further. GE is over. Cabinet is up. Lets just sit back and see what difference does all this make once they got into gear. Here's to a happy, peaceful, united and safe Malaysia. Hoohaaa..!~ Malaysia Boleh! errr boleh ke?
