Turbulent times ahead

The GE 14 is here ! Another general election but it is a crucial event . There are calls to revive and reform Malaysia as part of the activities.  Some people asked whether there is possibility of change from within instead of change.  I think it is a matter of opinion.  Some think that the current Government is beyond repair but some thinks that it can be save again.

Whatever happens, it is a matter of survival whether it is under new or old.  But , it is good to have a two party system like in the US and many countries where each party can rule at intervals to keep each other at their toes. This check and balance system could be able to keep harm away and make the country strong.

A single party ruling for 50 or 60 years may become stale and routine.  Nothing change, nothing happens or when we change , changes would come in many forms. Change is always for the better as human being is always striving for better living and benefits.

Looking at the coming event, there will a lot of fireworks and dirty linens will be washed openly in the public making the situation worrisome and uncertain. There will be a lot of news ie good or bad and situation will get more tense. It is the first time , the Opposition Front is able to gather together as a group and posted a serious challenge to Najib's Government.

It is very important to maintain the true spirit of competition and we have to play it fairly.  Win or lose , it does not matter but it should be given to the winner.  If the loser wants to keep the winning steak despite losing , then there could be trouble or unhappiness.  This kind of happening occurs in many nations in the past. 

We should also avoid the manipulative actions ie like suppressing the press, re-write the rules and pressured the rival groups or using the unfair tactics to gain influence or points  and all these could lead to trouble and a more stronger rebellion of the election results.

Needless to say, a perfect situation will never occur and this is always the strong and rich ruling over the less stronger parties and do some unfair practice to oppress the oppositions. That is where the trouble starts. 

Lets pray for a less troublesome event and let peace prevail and the loser accepting the outcome fairly.

Namaste.
