DEMOCRACY in Malaysia - DIED or REBORN, 05 May 2013

This is the first time I felt such a disappointment  and utterly helpless for what I can do more to contribute to my beloved country especially on this special day the 5th May 2013 - Malaysian 13th General Election. It is rather very disappointing to note the attitude and all the 'accidents' created by the Election Committee in this very election. 

With the 'Magic Show' for blackout and in just 10 minutes, the EC found another bag of postal votes and this turned the already winning Bentong PR-candidate Wong Tack (with 1k majority votes) to 1000 votes behind BN like a roller coaster in the Disneyland. In this very 13th General Election as well, phantom voters were caught with evidence, yet being ushered by police force into the polling centres, all these drove madness to the Rakyat! One of the footage of a phantom voter not even know what he supposed to defend if he is eligible to vote, Evidence (in the footage the crowd was yelling for identity card 'IC', a must-have document to prove you have the citizenship to be eligible for voting).

If you are aware of this citizens of the world, you will notice especially your Malaysian friends have changed their profile photo to black - protesting silently that the DEMOCRACY in Malaysia is gone. We also received encouragement messages and support from some of our FB friends from Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Hong Kong, China, South Korea, Singapore, Brunei and Australia by switching their FB profile page black. We hope for that the international society could exert some pressure on the Government. Please share this message out if you too agree with this movement.

On the other hand, looking at this 13th General Election, the Election Committee announced that this time round is the highest turnout for voters in Malaysia, achieving 80% voters turnout in history since independence. This is the highest in Malaysian electoral history, beating the 78.9 percent recorded in 1964 - quoted Malaysiakini.com. I am Sabahan originates from East Malaysia, Borneo - Looking at the current result for Sabah, I would said we actually has won and this is rather a great leap forward. According to the 13th General Election result, we have won 12 states (only one single win in 12th GE) and 3 parliamentary seats. From my point of view, most of the cities where mass media with internet access available have successfully made the change to vote for the opposition where the remaining majority interiors with limited and internet access is not available still voted for the same BN who has been constantly 'raped' for this course of 50 years (since the federation of Malaysia 1963) still placed their mandate onto the same 'rapist'. It is tremendously shameful and bizarre to say this but I have to say it, it is like handing out different flavours of condoms to the same rapist despite being raped constantly and so frequently. Please forgive my rudeness. Anyhow, this is already a great way forward to a balanced distribution of power for the government in Malaysia.

As you probably have already known, the mainstream medias in Malaysia are wholly controlled by the BN-led government with their cronies, thus it is very unlikely that the interior villagers/residents are able to access internet access with free media. They are being fed only with whatever information given to them. This truly is a sad case especially in Malaysia, largely a nation to be known as the leading economy in Southeast Asia. In my opinion, it is not too unbelievable to say that the access to free media is somewhat comparable to the fully crackdown of mass media in China. 

What I can say about DEMOCRACY in Malaysia anymore now? We just hope that there will be international intervention and help free Malaysia from this false government. One good thing most of the Rakyat has learnt is the need to be united no matter what, the urge for a Clean and Transparent Election! Some of the Malaysians have called for Bersih 4.0 in these few coming weeks. I just hope that no bloodshed and accidents, we are all indeed Malaysians! 

I have decided to write this post as I really felt that something has to be done to end this Corrupted Government who is sucking up all the Rakyats' money, safety, etc! I do not respect the government who won this 13th GE by buying votes (so openly) and flew those 60,000 foreign voters into the country just to vote for the BN! So furious, yet, finger-crossed still hope for international aid / intervention please. Thank you.
