Let's Vote Again!!!

In just less than 48 hours, Malaysians will go out of their houses to vote for their favourite candidates. And by midnight on the 8th of March, the country would have a brand new government to carry out the economic development for the next five years. There is nothing I can do but to stay in front of my laptop on the 8th to watch the election results online at TV3 website.

Today, I came across one news report about the oldest candidate in this 12th General Election – Ms. Maimun Yusuf. Apparently, now she has her own blog maimunbintiyusuf.blogspot.com and her own Facebook profile. I am very impressed that at 89 years old, she can still have all that. Of course, she did not do it by herself, there are two young businessmen behind her in making all these reality. I have not added her as my friend, and I don’t think I will but if you want to do so, go ahead. I wish her all the best – she would have a tough time considering she is facing two politicians that are obviously very experienced in politics.

And here is my take on the 12th general election. Barisan Nasional will retain its two-third majority, but would only win around 150 seats in the Parliament. They will not win Kelantan from PAS and they would be lose some seats in Penang, Perak, Kedah and maybe Selangor – But will still control the state governments. As for my area, I think Barisan Nasional would win in both Gombak Parliamentary seat and Gombak Setia State seat.

Again, please go out and vote because your vote matters. And do vote for the right people for the right reason.

I Hate Him.

I read a blog of my friend today and I have to say this, "I hate you!" There, I've said it. I can't believe that he would actually wrote something like that. I mean, I've heard him saying it, but to write it in his blog is totally unacceptable - at least to me. Though part of what he wrote is true, he still has no rights whatsoever to write those things.

Bad Bee. Bad Bee.

Everyone seems to be talking about exams nowadays. Well, you can’t blame them since exam is just around the corner. Currently I am revising for Principles of Marketing and Management with a bee hovering in front of me (well, actually, I am typing this entry). Not a very conducive environment indeed, I must say. For some strange reasons I seem to attract five bees into my room this week alone. It is amazing to see how these bees can take just 2 seconds to come into my room and the whole day to get out. Why is it so difficult for them to find the window to fly out of my room remains a mystery to me. Here I am staring at the bee and keep telling it to go to the right, where the window is. Sometimes, I even wonder whether it is the same bee everyday or not. Speaking of which, (not totally related but bees do remind me of airplanes) AirAsia is going to sign a new sponsorship $5.6million deal with Manchester United (as in the football club). To be honest, I don’t really see the connection be...

Monkey Business.

Malaysian Members of the Parliament (MP) are a disgrace to the country! That is all I have to say after watching how those MPs behaving like a bunch of idiots. It is a wasted effort by Malaysians having to queue up to elect them during General Election only to see them acting like MONKEYS in the Parliament. I know it is normal for MPs to shout at each other over certain issues, but it is OK if they are shouting at each other fighting for the cause of people who voted for them. Malaysians voted for you because they want you to represent their voice in the Parliament. In the end, will the shouting benefits the people? NO, because the real issue that was debated at first was dropped at the end of the shouting as if it was a meaningless issue. It is not a surprise to see why it took the Parliament a very long time to pass a bill only to realize later that the bill has lots of overlooked loopholes. Then, the people will protest the new bill and they will have to bring it back to the Parliam...
