this year's election (i bet) kept many Malaysians awake past midnight, at the edge of their seats due to many issues being raised. i, too, caught the election fever. (yea, i'm 17, and lovin' politics issue.) nst website was a great source of news online. so anyways,
who did the people vote for?
this year was definitely a big sweep for the opposition party, seeing that the citizens of Malaysia have finally realised the great need to voice out.
the biggest news. BN, did not win 2/3 of the parliment seats. this means, the opposition parties will be able to voice out any doubt in decisions made by BN. thats a good thing. they're able to keep track of financial issues (in case of bribery and those not-so-good stuff) and projects worked on (where did that part of budget go to? etc..)
next biggest news. DAP has finally got hold of Penang! new rulings, new Chief Minister! woot!
next next biggest news. opposition party rules in 5 states! (way lot more compared to previous election) BN only got 6 i think.
next next next (lol) biggest news. DAP has got all the urban areas! such as, Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur (many parts of it), Perak! (ipoh, taiping and the cities), Selangor! last but not least..........Penang! :D
after much inspection (lol) and analyzing, this time the citizens did not really care about who (in their area) were they voting for, rather, they just wanted to vote for the opposition. the opposition parties worked together in a way too. if you really go in depth, when one opposition party becomes a candidate for a certain area, the other opposition party will automatically keep themselves out of that area. good job, people!
Malaysia has finally got its balance in politics; expect more voicing out and a better Malaysia! :DD phew.......finally!
ps. stay at home these few days though. it's not quite safe, in case there is a riot or some sort going on..
