The
nations youngest, brightest and
most committed activists seems to be gravitating towards Pakatan Rakyat…..and
its prettiest too. Barisan
Nasional has no answer to Nurrul or Dyana! Sharizat might have given them a run
for their money in her younger days but greed has caught up with Sharizat! And
we are not only talking about a pretty face… more critical than all else,
Nurrul and Dyana have the brains and the courage to take on Barisan Nasional on
any playing level…level or not!
Nurrul did so at Lembah Pantai and
was victorious and Dyana now is just about to enter the gelanggang to face
what Barisan Nasional can throw her away ….and she seems to relish the prospect
of doing so!
Barisan
Nasional has no answer to the enthusiasm displayed by the masses as they
continue to publicly decry and protest against the abuse of public office for
personal gain – a practice that corrupts and blights a vast spectrum of
government functionaries under Barisan Nasional.
Barisan
Nasional has no answer to the pervasive and effective influence of the social
media that relentlessly chips away at the now brittle amour that cloaks all the
misdeeds and abuses done by Barisan Nasional in the name of government!
Against
all this Barisan Nasional can only lick their wounds and covertly schemes for a
way out of its present malaise. A malaise that has seen it battered and bruise
by the surging tide of dissent by a population who have had enough of being
bruise and battered by corruption, economic stagnation and an epic failure of
the government to provide for a civil and harmonious mix amongst its multi
racial and multi religious mix of its own people.
Many
have registered their belief that this Barisan Nasional government will not be
able to govern itself out of its present mess by walking away from Malaysia to
places that promised them what this BN government cannot : An opportunity to
live a life for themselves and their families to the best of their abilities
unhampered by race, religion or a corrupt government bent upon its own survival
and nothing more.
Many
have chosen to be social and political activist intent upon doing battle with
this insidious BN government at
close quarters – on the streets of Kuala Lumpur or anywhere in Malaysia where
this battle have to be fought – a battle against overwhelming physical and
financial force, which if not won, would consign our nation and our people to
possibly its final DNR (do not resuscitate) state before our nation becomes a
:”failed state”.
Failed
to live up to its potential to be the Malaysia we want politically,
economically and democratically in the truest sense of the word.
Failed
to be what we had been once – the economic powerhouse of Asean, the nation with
the happiest Prime Minister in Tunku and a place where we celebrated unity in
diversity!
And
so we come to today!
We
have had to have a corrupt, arrogant and kleptomaniac Barisan Nasiona
government for the past 50 over years so that our people will now understand
what sort of government we must now have for the next 50 years! Yes we have had
a truly excruciating and exhausting learning curve to traverse under Barisan
Nasional but it will be a lesson well learned!
We
will never allow another Mahathir to run riot within the corridors of power in
Putrajaya. We will demand that the Judiciary be independent, PDRM will be
bersih, cekap dan amanah, the Civil Service shall be the guardian of our
aspiration for good governance and those in public office shall serve the
people not themselves.
All Malaysians shall all be brothers and
sisters and the lot of the other shall be the concern of all. The sick, the
old, the minorities and the underprivileged shall be given priority over
others.
Any
politician that takes what is not theirs, abuse their executive powers for
their advantage and chooses to put their party’s interest before that of the
nation’s interests will be the worse for doing so.
No
pedophile, thief, liar, swindler or robber shall hold political office. No
public servant shall have a self worth that cannot be explained. No prime
minister shall be able to ask Petronas to bail his son’s business out of its
own self-inflicted problems.
It shall be mandated that the Prime Minister’s wife shall be a prime minister’s
wife – nothing more and nothing less! And our king and the Sultans will be made
to understand that they, like all of us, will have to be put to work to earn
the salaries paid for from the coffers of our nation and if they are to
continue to be the head of Islam in the State that they rule, then they should
behave appropriately. No fornication outside the bonds of matrimony, no
drinking of liquor and do behave like a good Muslim!
Barisan
Nasional has no answers to these demands from the rakyats because they are
still under the mistaken belief that their hold on political power is so
entrenched that nothing will pry them away from Putrajaya.
Barisan
Nasional has no idea that all these demands for change has already manifested
itself in the massive swing away from Barisan Nasional and towards any other
viable alternative and they ignore these demands at their own peril.
The
people have been empowered by the results of the 12th and 13th
general elections… .Dyana’s baptism
in Telok Intan is merely a continuation of this process of change! May the
force be with Dyana! Merdeka!
