The challenge is on

With the announcement that the parliament and state legislative assemblies have dissolved, Malaysia prepares to face her 12th General Elections in her 50 years in existence. What normally seems like a stroll in the park for the ruling coalition is appearing to be a mammoth task this time around with a new wave of awareness and the new generation electorate now being able to vote. This being first election as an eligible voter, I'm really looking forward to it.

All I wish is for the elections will see a much better representation of the opposition in Paliament. The BN have been in power for too long and have taken the people for granted with their half-past six attitude and performance. Too many grouses are left un-handled and many more racist and oppressive actions have begun cropping up.

I don't wish to go into details of all the actions because with parliament dissolved, technically there is no government to govern at the moment. As good citizens, lets all turn out in force to vote and bring change to the land. It is time to show who is boss and decide the future that we as rightful children of the land want.

Vote for change, vote for a stronger and well represented opposition.
