Hello
you. Yes, you, the one writing on this blog, and the (only) one reading it as
well. So, basically your own self, Ideris! :|I’ve lied to my own blog. I
promised to write more since my last post. I had a nice break from the clinical
terror, but I couldn’t remember what had kept me so busy that I failed to
accomplish my vision of updating this abandoned blog of mine more frequently.
It feels like telling lies to my own soul. Oh my desouled soulless soul!
Anyway,
this is a ‘hot’ period of the year! Not only because summer’s approaching and
the temperature is climbing up at a drastic rate, there’s also a huge event
coming up this month. It’s the general election! I shall remember this year’s
election because it’s my first time voting. I already handed my vote in last
Sunday since I’m abroad currently, hence the postal voting need to be carried
out earlier than the official date of voting to allow adequate time for
transference or something. I’m sure you get the idea.
I’m
kind of a newbie to the political matters. An amateur, if I may. But I’m trying
to get a hang of it. Do I support Pakatan Rakyat or Barisan Nasional? There are
others, but in national context, I don’t see the possibility of them forming a
government due to the insufficient number of parliamentary seats being
contested by them. So it’s gonna be either one of these two to govern the
country.
To
be frank, I’m not a strong supporter of any of the two but I’m no midway
currently. I decided to choose the other one because of what I believe in and
what I’m fighting for. Strong word, fight! LOL! Well again, I already voted. I
voted for a better Malaysia. I voted for the whole citizens of Malaysia. I voted
to choose for a better future for my future children. I voted for the future
generations. I voted to show that all of us citizens have the rights to be
voiced out. I voted to make people realize of the power held by the citizens on
how this country should be sailed. I voted to show the politicians of how
afraid they should be of us, citizens and not the vice versa. This is a
democratic country, every person has the sole right to choose the direction of
this country.
That’s
why I chose not to vote blindly and solely for any party. I’m not to be a
donkey following where the party is taking me. I desire a transparent
government so everyone can have a say in every matter. In other words, I’m
against obsession of any political parties, because these parties should be
held responsible by the people without excuse. There can be no party which is
not to be questioned of any wrong deeds done.
Once
again, I strongly believe in the power of the people over the government. The
ballot is stronger than the bullet.
We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. The people are the rightful masters of the country.
