a story in progress

Yesterday was really meng-jiwang-kan (yes I hear you Ben). Finally the 5 of us get to spend some time together and do what we love doing - wrecking havoc in a very discrete and intellectual sort of way.Okay, perhaps I was lying about that back then. But I really like the word intellectual and discrete. It gives you a certain sense of justification of one's action. Don't you think so?

Anyway, not going elaborate any further on the outing yesterday other then it went well! Minus the nonsensical movie we watched and the shallowness,rudeness and not to mention the patheticness displayed shamelessly by a certain bunch of people before I head back.

It seems that the only key issue in Malaysians' mind for today is the 12th General Election. Everywhere you go now, you will hear news, scandals, controversial about our politics and about the government in particular.

As you may have already know as of today;

1. Malaysia's ruling coalition has failed to obtain a two-thirds majority in parliament in weekend elections, the Election Commission said in state media Sunday, for the first time since 1969.
2. In Penang the DAP will officially rule in coalition with Keadilan.
3. PAS have claimed victory in Kedah.
4. Opposition has taken Selangor.
5. PAS strengthens it's grip on Kelantan.

The implication from the above facts may very well shape the very future of the nation and it's people for many years to come. (or perhaps for the next 4 years)

Heck, even the Prime Minster's (or more fondly know as Pak Lah) future is seen as bleak.

Personally, I see tomorrow as nothing but a void filled with despondency and tragedies. Or is it just me being a cynic again?

These so called changes which the people of Malaysia are vying from this 12th General Election - are they but a foolish political gimmick elaborately drawn by a bunch of ingenious conspirators whose primary goal is to fulfill his or her own personal goals? I do not know. But one thing for sure, I pray for those who have cast their votes, for better or for worse, you have yourself to thank if anything were to happen from this point onwards.

Since yesterday night, I have been following the latest updates of the election mainly through the electronic media which of no surprise prove to be more efficient than the ones telecast supposedly 'live' from the election ground. As said earlier in my last post, this election is going to be filled with surprises. (ceh, maybe I should start putting some serious thoughts into becoming a seer or even a political anylyst as my future career) Pleasant ones if you are one of those fed up and silenced people who are all hoping for the leaders of our nations to have a 101 on humility and modesty.

But then somethings will just never change.

Malaysia's democracy is sadly restricted to a 5 year once annual affair. What happens in between those time frame?

God knows.

For now, I shall try catch the latest updates on the Election through what ever means I can find.

But one thing for sure, I have nothing to look forward to.
