We are in the age of turbulence now. The global economy is dropping and crashing. The political situation in Malaysia is not helping either. The ruling coalition is falling apart, but whatever we read in the newspaper or watch in news these days were just merely distractions. Not being able to cope with the pressure, they resulted to using racial cards. First they had their “hero”, the Bukit Bendera chief to invoke racial tension, calling the Chinese “pendatang”. He got off easy with that statement, with just a mere 3 year ban. And yet he insisted he said the right thing and need not apologize to no one. Luckily the Chinese were civilized enough not to demonstrate, unlike some university students who protested even over a petty matter (just a suggestion by the Selangor MB to open up THE university to other races). It’s not like we want to enter the university so much either. Imagine the students turn out in droves, enjoying the fact that they get to “ponteng” classes with the support of political leaders (and the police too). WTF.
Perhaps everyone who read or watch news should know the government had used their penultimate weapon – the ISA: the draconian law which was used to shut everyone up except for the government. Imagine the racist bastard got himself clear from ISA, only to see the reporter who reported his statements got caught instead. Mr Anwar on the other hand, is screwing up the economy by courting for trouble. But he’s the only person who is capable of bringing down the cronyism and nepotism within BN.
RPK is the man. All respects to him. He didn’t have to land himself into so much trouble, but he was always the man of justice. If Anwar doesn’t succeed in his power bid, I think there’s only one person who can save RPK:
Sometimes being too much in control for political figures, we need someone to bring some greyness to the game. Too bad there are no Jokers in real life. Neither there are superheroes. We are just mere pawns to the bigger game up there, and they are screwing our life inch by inch.
At the end of the day, we don't even know who to trust anymore.
