Sick of Malaysian politics

dunno y but after reading the news 2day i really felt sick bout the state of our politics. n i just wish it would stop n go back to the day b4 the political tsunami. yeah, i admit, it was really exciting initially to see the opposition finally got the voice to bash the government and hopefully, keep them in check. but sadly, the opposite had happened. rather than keeping them in check, they used it for personal gains.

i bet nobody knows my true political view to date cuz i seem to be supporting this side at one point and the other at one point. they called people like me lalang la, xda pendirian, bacul. but the truth is, i can't commit to either bcoz none seems any good and the other. (insert political news from 2008 until now)y am i worrying rite now? bcuz i have to vote in the upcoming election.

so, i will be put up to choose against this 3 option:

1) vote for the ruling party.
2) vote for the opposition.
3) abstain/ vote bebas (if any)

while i'm thankful to live in a democratic country and has the right to vote, it's sad that the winner ie; majority tends to ignore the minority when it wins. that's when hatred and grudge boils. look at the result of the last election, the pattern is usually like this. the majority wins by 52%, or 54%. the minority gets only 48% of the votes. 48% usually equivalent to almost 20,000 of people. trouble happen when you ignore 20,000 people in one constituent. due to dissatisfaction or perception that injustice is being served.


in my humble view, what we want is justice. Malaysian are seeded with a high moral value and ideals. That's why you see that people wiling to say bad words, calling names, seek dirty tactics just to uphold the justice that they believe in. now, i'm not gonna say which side holds the true justice bcuz if you really look into it, none is. What i want to say is, with justice, will come economic development, lower the gaps between the rich and the poor, higher purchasing power, reduce unemployment, reduce inflation, reduce corruption, reduce crime rates. I'm not asking for Captain America or Spiderman to come and serve it to us but i believe the politicians can. to bad it seem to be a really big ask for them. why? because they don't want to tolerate or in other words, lose out. lose out on money, shares, influence, votes.

One politician that i know since childhood (sapa lagi kan?) really change with time. What start out as a really noble mission to protect and serve the people, bring development and prosperity upon him embarking in politics has now, turns into a mission to save his and his own decendants own periuk nasi. it's like the noble houseman mission to become the head of department in hope to better the condition of houseman. "Nanti aku jadi specialist/ head of department, aku mesti layan pekerja aku elok-elok" is a famous quote that could be heard in the thoughts of each houseman since the days of dulu-dulu lagi.
