Makkal Sakti !!

Makkal Sakti indeed.....

I am pretty sure the election result shocked and surprised us quite abit. The people have finally awaken, and they demonstrated their frustration yesterday, 'enough is enough'.

I have been reading newspaper, nanyang, sinchew etc, and I saw the reason they been giving on why opposition could win big is mostly that people are unhappy about the price hike. Well, this is partly true of course, however, is it really that simple? Do the press still think that us Malaysian are morons or what? Just because our nasi lemak rise a few sen, or our teh-tarik rise 20 sen then we vote for an opposition????

The answer is a definite NO!!! The Rakyat had been keeping quiet for so long and giving them chance to show us what they can do terms after terms, but we had seen enough of empty promises, 'banana-weaving' act, enough corruption and more.

There will be uncertainty in the coming future, but we should stay calm and sail through it, as it is normal when changes in process. Sacrifices are needed if we were to earn back our permanent rights. I hope the opposition can put up a good show to the rakyat and fulfill what they had promised, and then we might see even more lights in our future after another 5 years.

Let 3/8/2008 be a new chapter for Malaysia. The road to true democracy is still long and tough, however we must fight on!!!

Democracy is the worst form of government, except all the others that have been tried.
