Seems like another Ops Lalang in the works?
Sigh... I just hope that the people are matured enough deal with this, because certainly it seems like our politicians aren't.
I'm disappointed.

I'm not disappointed.

I'm outraged.

I feel disgusted.

I feel like shouting at the government and asking what the hell it's doing, letting the real culprits get away with murder while the innocents are locked up. I want to scream "Double standards! You hypocrits! Bastards of the highest order!"

And yet we're told to stay calm. So I'm maintaining a calm appearance.

But I'm absolutely boiling inside.

It is absolutely outrageous. People who speak the truth are arrested while perpetrators are not.

holy shit I have no idea whether to be disgusted or angry at the proceedings. Malaysia is falling apart right before our eyes because our entire government is so blinded and corrupt.

16th of September, or 916 as pronounced by the general Chinese population in Malaysia, is Malaysia Day. The day where after independence, Malaya formed a federation with Sabah and Sarawak to be the current nation of Malaysia.

Since the general elections this year, the Opposition leader and ex-Deputy PM, Anwar Ibrahim, has announced that he would utilize Malaysia Day as the day where he would convince ruling party MPs to crossover to the Opposition and effectively take over the country by means of political upheaval.

As does most Malaysians, I'm watching with sheer anticipation.

I do not have a very good feeling about all this. Yes, freedom of speech was given, but now i wonder if it had been used wisely. It's dissappointing to note that educated malaysians seem to make things worse than it already is. I guess the older generation never really forgot about May 13th, not only they didn't forget, I guess they passed it down to their offsprings in a very negative manner.

Conflict...It's everywhere from religion to education to race and etc, and it's getting kind of boring. It was expected that the opposition were going to win big ..it was like what happened when Pak Lah came into power, everybody voted in a feel good enviro, and the recent one was the ...how do i put it..emotionally frustrated n feel bad enviro...most ppl voted coz they had no option to choose, but if they had..maybe the results might have been something else..maybe not barisan..maybe not the opposition..Hmm... politicians have been elected due to the trust that they will be able to handle the matters of the country in a professional way, but what we see today is public bickering and threats. Sometimes i feel the man on the street has a better approach and a clear mind, maybe no more dasar pecah and perintah :P.

The election results were ok to me..i thgt it was a wake up call for barisan and it was a good time for the opposition to get into the administration of the country..to get a feel of it...but duh what is happening? @shakes head@

These ppl still haven't recovered from the shock or someone is tying to make the election null and void...duh...how boring can the country become?

ISA...hmm..@scratch head@..if ISA had feelings of its own...i guess it would say..stop making a mockery out of me...duh..sikit sikit saya aje...ape nie?..saya bukan doormat tau, tak de undang-undang lain ke...asyik nak frame saya aje, frame orang lain lah..spoil my name N reputation only!
