COMMENT | Enough of Politics 1.0
COMMENT | Malaysians had a lot to be proud of on May 9, 2018. I’ll leave the reminiscing and nostalgia to my more eloquent colleagues. The question that keeps nagging at me is: why isn’t every day May 9?
The general elections held two years ago today represented the triumph of the people over bad governance. But why are we only given an opportunity to do this only on one day every five or so years?
On the other 1,825 days, we seem to put our fates and destiny entirely into the hands of a few political elites. The last few days seem to be quite representative of what those elites we surrender our power to do with those days.
Long story short, it looks like the nightmare of the "Sheraton Move" is not over.
