For the first time since 1957, the people have conveyed their wishes for change, they hope to see a new government which is above political party and religion. As such, irrespective of the candidates fielded by the opposition, the voters will give their support, to hand the Opposition a victory.
Malaysian nation having recently come into existence, where citizenship counts the most in defining ones identity. A rupture has been opened up at last in the collective mindset that determines the conduct of our politics.
We need a new Malaysian politics that would breathe new life and faith in the political system, and where all of us- mainly on the basis of our universal citizenship- can claim to be stakeholders in the nation-building process.
We have always assume that the Malays would never vote for DAP, that non-Muslims would never vote for PAS. But this belief has been shattered and we now see that we are a mature, adult nation after all.
We look forward to a truly democratic Malaysia!
