A Day We Cast Our Votes

Tomorrow is 8 March 2008, a day when all Malaysians cast their votes in the general election. For the past few weeks, we have seen campaigns, talks, advertisements and whatsoever means to promote the candidates and to influence the people as to which party to vote for and who to be their voice.


Many things have been said and many promises have been made. The words uttered by the politicians in a skillful way is a mean to get votes but we, the people, have the responsibility to think, to judge and to decide which is the truth and which direction we want our country to head.


So, who to vote for or which party to vote for? Deep down in our hearts, we know the answer. Do you like your life now? Do you think our life and living standard can be improved? Are we satisfied with the current policies? Do you think the government has been doing a good job? Do we want a change? Forget about the advertisements, look around you and you may find an answer. Now, it’s for all of us to think wisely and to make a decision that we will not regret for life.


Happy voting, Malaysians!

Yes, we are undergoing the same process her in the US, and it is difficult to figure out what the facts are from the fiction sometimes, isn't it? Good luck to you, may the best person win!

We have a more pressing problem with the validity of GE voting process. If this is not taken care of, there is no democracy. Vote wisely everyone. Please. Remember that balance is everything.

I haven't even registered myself to vote yet *malu*. That's becoz we have been moving quite a bit over the last few years. Once we've settled down here, we will register ourselves.
