GE14 - The mother of all elections in Malaysia

The GE14 will be conducted very soon in Malaysia. 

This election is very different from other elections which was held in Malaysia previously. This election is no longer a battle between Malays and non-Malays but instead between Malays themselves.

They are at the crossroads to decide to whom their support is.

The margin of advantage between the ruling party and opposition party is very thin. There are many Malays who disassociate themselves with both party. They are undecided. They are confused.

Firstly, they don't understand why a leader they had revered the most has joined and collaborating with opposition.

Secondly, why there are many parties claiming they are representing Malays and why are so many now?

Thirdly, where they are belong too i.e. to which party they are associate with.

Lastly, who will preserve and protect their rights and priviliges better.

In this election, the deciding factor for the outcome of this election is with Malays.

Therefore this election is the mother of all elections and so crucial for the future of Malaysia.

As what I observed in the electronic media including social media, the undercurrent sentiments is slightly in favour of opposition because of Dr Mahathir's factor. He has seen as a true national leader who has contributed enormously for the development of  this nation.

He is not only the leader for Malays but for other races as well in this country.

He was a former Prime Minister who has a lot of experience handling elections for his former party and that will be a key factor in deciding the outcome of this election.

Let's wait and see.

Brexit: A lesson for Malaysians

Yesterday, Britons through a referendum made a decision to leave European Union. The ruling Conservative Party divided on this referendum and David Cameron in favour of ‘Remain’ was defeated outright. Even though he is disagreed with the decision of Britons, he announced that he is resigning from his premiership in respect of people’s decision. We can expect in a mature democracy country like United Kingdom this is vastly anticipated to be transpired.   A few days ago, the current Chief Commissioner of Malaysian Anti-Corruption of Commission made a statement that he is stepping down from his position and there are some rumours indicating that a few prominent officers from the said Commission will either resign or retire. It’s very eccentric news for Malaysians as it will have a profound impact on bribery and corruption issues in Malaysia as a whole. Recently, the results of two by elections were won by Barisan Nasional, the ruling party of Malaysia. Many promises had been...

Trump's role in the Israel-Hamas ceasefire

As the Israel-Hamas ceasefire, scheduled to commence on Jan 19, 2025, approaches, it is essential to examine the potential impact of president-elect Donald Trump on this event and Middle East security. Considering Trump’s past foreign policy actions, especially those concerning Israel, alongside the wider geopolitical environment, his prospective role in shaping the ceasefire and future peace initiatives is intricate and layered. Historical influence Trump’s initial term as president was characterised by a robust endorsement of Israel, a position that resonated with his domestic political supporters and simultaneously altered US foreign policy, thereby impacting the wider dynamics of the Middle East. Key actions during this period included the formal acknowledgement of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, the transfer of the US embassy to that city, and the withdrawal from the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement. These measures solidified his rapport with Israeli leadership and exemplified his ...
