But this time round, the hoo-haa about this election is so big, so great that I have no choice but to acknowledge its presence. My parents has been supporting Barisan National (BN) all along ever since they have registered as a voter.
But the recent management of the country was so disappointing they are actively campaigning and psycho-ing everyone to vote for the opposition. I bet you most people out there are probably feeling this way too. Hence the major hoo-haa. Ever since Dr. Mahatir stepped down, things has been going down hill for BN. Pak Lah being a lil weak in his position is allowing many other ministers to climb over his lovely grey head.
And the roads are worse then ever. Plus oil prices are increased despite being an oil producing country. And Hindraf leaders are jails for no reason.
The opposition team is really going strong this time round. Almost everyone I asked around is voting for them. Its probably all because of Anwar's effort, despise him not being able to run for any office post.
But the usual prevails. Days before election, you see poster and flyers and banners everywhere, ugly-fying the entire country.
But oh well. Right now the status of the vote countings status seems to be making the opposition a lot happier than BN. So I guess the amount of banners placed doesn't make any difference. Haha. Just yesterday I was dragged by my dad to listen to some "ceramah" given by Tony Phua, opposing candidate in Taman Megah area. I was so shocked that they openly critic BN in such a manner that you might get sentenced to death if it wasn't for election.
"Samivellu is a useless man, he is so useless he can go pee in his pants"
Whoa, I salute the candidates. Their public speaking is so good it turns your eyes green with jealousy. And they were like some celebrity on stage, whereby people chant you names, and go YES whenever you say something. But this is the first time I ever saw the community so united and so supportive. I guess BN really screwed up.
So comes election and then the counting. Selangor Kedah Penang and Kelantan already fell into the opposition's hands. Samivellu is already out of job. This is really history in making. Never in history has the opposition parties dominate the votes so badly.
But we're still getting the BN as our gov.
And oh, for your safety people, just stay at home tomorrow.
