Never before, Malaysia has seen such determined desire of people of all creeds and ethnicities to see a total change in the way Malaysia is to be governed.
Every night, waves and waves of the battle cry: "Ini Kali Lah" reverberate in the ceramah put up by the opposition. Of course, the power of the day would resist being uprooted and resorted to all sorts of tricks either more goodies or even threats!
This time around, I see an unprecedented number of young or first time voters who want to use their votes to initiate real change in Malaysia. They come back from overseers to exercise that right.
People are truly disgusted with the number one scourge in Malaysia: Corruption which has permeated into every level of the society. The perversion and abuses in the implementation of the so-called affirmative policy have driven scores of talents out of this country and benefitting many of our neighbours. In this era when every country including the Arab countries are yearning for better governments with inclusive policies. Sadly, Malaysia has regressed over the years. Many believe that if left unchecked, Malaysia will become a failed nation.
Every right thinking person would know that something is awfully wrong with our system of government when our neighbour's currency which was same as our some 50 years ago has risen sharply over the years and is now more than two and half time stronger than ours. This is especially unacceptable when our neighbours have no natural resources while ours is blessed with so many.
All well intentioned Malaysian genuinely hope that a new Malaysia will dawn after 5 May 2013!
