A Wave of Change??

Ok, the title's a dead give away about the topic that I'm going to write about.
Yup, mesti la pasal the recently concluded Malaysian 12th General Election. Ape lagi~~

For the first time in many years, I was actually anxious about the results and kept asking people about it(because I couldn't get my hands on the updated result. Malaysiakini tak nak penuh plak server kan...) And the results were really surprising!! I mean, I've expected the opposition parties to be stronger this year but they exceeded far beyond anyone could imagine(ceh.. cakap macam jadi political analyst je=P)

So, 5 states and the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur are now under the opposition party's ruling. And 3 of those states have some connection with me. Selangor my hometown is under PKR, Perak(my mother's hometown) is under DAP and Kedah(my father's hometown) is under PAS. What a combination!! Huhu...

Truthfully, at first I was a bit doubtful... I mean, ok I've never known how the opposition party would lead so, since this would effect me in some way or another(hey, I do come back to Malaysia even if it's for three months during the summer!=P), I have to care.I even said yesterday to a few friends of mine: "Wei... takut wei. Ape la nanti jadi kat Selangor sume. I wanna go back this summer to the same Selangor that I've gotten used too!!" And they calmed me down by saying: "Takpe... Kite kene yakin!! Kalau ni yang terbaik... Kite just yakin n doa je..." Yes, I've always been one of those people who's resistant to change. My bad... I know. So, now I'm just anticipating the changes that would happen. By the way, I don't really know what's happening really in Malaysia(the suffering because of high petrol prices, poverty, etc), so my opinions can't really be accounted for(yer... saya budak baru belajar. Huhu...). But, essentially, change is what we need.

So, kudos to all Malaysians!! I think they have all voiced out their opinions through the election.
Hope the new Malaysian government would be a better one!
And let's all just pray that this wave of change would benefit everyone and this is really what Malaysians want and need. Amin...!! =)

P.S: No, I'm not turning into a politically inclined person. Just writing what I think about the result since it's such a hot topic! =P
