Answer to 'bad politics' not 'no politics' but 'good politics'.

| Two days before the Malacca state election, I was asked in a virtual forum with Malaccans to predict the outcome of the poll.

We may feel disappointed if our candidates do not win, but at the end of the day, know that when we have done the right thing, the results, even though no less important, will be secondary.The struggle for change and reform is a colossal endeavour. This is unmistakable in the history of humanity. It would take 48 years before #Undi18 was eventually passed, unanimously, in Parliament on July 16, 2019.Immediately after BN's victory in Malacca, its chairperson Ahmad Zahid Hamidi made a statement committing to several reforms advocated by Pakatan Harapan, namely, to enact anti-hopping legislation and to allow a constructive vote of confidence.

And oh, Lim Kit Siang moved a private member's bill in Parliament to enact an anti-hopping law on March 21, 1978. The road to reform is long and lonely, but the journey never ends in despondency. Don't get me wrong, we must work hard to win - I want to win and form the next government. And for that, we must strategise and plan.

She didnt ask 4 her father to b exonerated....its her side of the story as she witnessed it 1st hand...wat did Ramasmay witness? Or did he jump into Anwarinas bandwagon for fun? 🤢🤮 Love forgives. That’s all. Perhaps, that’s what our nation need more of. Throwing lembings at each other over the past years has done nothing but slowed our nation. We need stronger governance, that’s a must. At the same time, we need to be able to sprint forward.

COMMENT | Why we do what we do at MalaysiakiniIt's a deep drive to stand for what is right. To stroke anwar's ego, to rally the Anwar cult members and to hate on Dr Mahathir who was chosen by the ppl to lead Malaysia from 2018-2023? By hating Dr M u hate the people's choice and vote. That is all.
