Post-Election

Monday, March 10, 2008

okay before the general election everybody was concerned about denying BN 2/3 only. it never occured that they could LOSE. even the opposition. penang was a sure case. thats y BN didnt even bothered much about penang this round. so ive heard. then kedah fell. uh.....according to my kedah fren kedah memang is DAP territory...bt....CM from PAS?? uh-oh.

then selangor fell *gasp*!!!!!
perak fell (huh??? wth happened???)
so far ive not heard anything remotely interesting coming fr perak n suddenly....its now PKR's??
WOW

who knew??


while everybody's busy NOT celebrating the fall of BN, i suddenly had this thought: what now?
the opposition won not cos we liked them. we juz happen to be fed up wid BN n decided that anythings better than them. the opposition candidates just happen to be at the right place at the right time.

my mum was asking me not to go out the following day cos there might be riots n stuff. im in malacca. BN won.i dun blame them. malacca is progressing very well. i wudve given them my vote too. bt ard 4pm i went out to buy the paper. n lunch. i was surprised to see the road empty. deserted. not a soul......

its like everyone's stunned. numb. im guessing nobody left the front of the tv( and the internet for those wo tv like me) except to eat n shit.

the opposition has never been handed such a HUGE responsability before....im not that confident that theyre able to pull it through. guess its a blessing in disguise that anwar's no longer wid the BN....an ex-mahathir protege is better than nothing.....

among all the accidental success the news that im most surprised wid is the role PAS now plays. being a non-muslim n a gal im sure u can understand the horror at the thought of being under PAS. its wrong of me to be so narrow-minded but i love my hands and free flowing hair haha. ive been to kelantan n terengganu.that...is not the kind of lifestyle i wud EVER survive in haha. anyway PAS managed to win seats in penang! and in kelantan(they worked really hard for that) and now...KEDAH! theyre slowly making their political way.....kinda alarming hehe....

the opposition's given a chance to perform now....let's hope that they dont screw it up. afterall this is unchartered territory....one simple mistake and......its BN back in power full force. lets hope all the politician's have learnt a big lesson: the REAL power resides in the people. u have the power ONLY when we give it. to quote Chow Yun Fatt in Curse of The Golden Flowers, " cham men pei, lei men lor" or loosely translated: wat i dont give, you dont take"

im hoping that this is a new era for Malaysia because i sure need new reasons to believe in Malaysia again
