UNDI & UBAH – finally, the wait is over. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak had on last week Wednesday announced the dissolution of Parliament to pave the way for the 13th General Election – my election fatigue finally have been cured of at last :) it is the most talked about election in Malaysian history, with interest increasing daily. It is also the country’s most anticipated GE seen from within and outside Malaysia. Polling date will be held on 5th May 2013. I think its a good number - meaning that both of the Government & the Opposition have the 50 - 50 chances to win in this year election.
So, who is going to win this time around? It will be a very close call. I am certainly impressed with the current Prime Minister; he is such a result-oriented person – showing off his report card of his policies from economics to welfare, security, public transport, healthcare, education etc. He have aced the exams. And he has certainly do what he can do and to the max to win back the hearts of the Malays, Chinese, Indians and the Orang Asli. Will it be enough to transfer these positive sentiments into votes? It is going to be a tough call. Current updates from the ground are that the majority of the Malays & Indians' support have already swung back to Barisan National. It is only the Chinese that is very firm that they wanted a change of the administration. I want a fair & just government. Let’s do things on merit. Helping the Bumiputras (the Malay Native) is important but well-deserve poor Bumiputras that is. For example, when buying a bungalow house, the Bumiputras are entitle to have 7% discount, if they can afford to buy such high end properties, why the discount is needed to be given to them? There is no logic for it. 1Malaysia is when NEP is erased from the board and everyone is on a equal footing. Changing this country is like pushing mountains, but every little count. If I can do something to change it, no matter how small it is – I will. My Vote counts :)
