有史以來最混亂的一次大選 The Most Chaotic General Election

下午5時了。剛在facebook上看到好多人貼上投票站的情況，都是在投訴有警員在投票現場記録人數，打電話通知不知甚麽人。有人貼上捉到來投票的外勞視頻；不過我看到的視頻只有一則，其中只有一個男性外勞。那男性外勞嚇得在哭。

安美嘉和ＢＥＲＳＩＨ說過，本届大選（第十三届）會是有史以來最黑暗骯髒的一次，應驗了。

但這也是馬來西亞成立以來，人民最熱衷投票，最勇敢投票，也最勇敢揭發舞弊的一次。沒錯，現在大家都在說ＢＮ輸定了，贏一定是靠作弊。可以預見的是，在投票結束，計票之後，一定會有很多人出來抗議。投票和計票的過程都會有人說有舞弊，也真的會有人捉到舞弊的過程。重算是少不了的。計算結果會是最快出爐的一次，但也是要重算最多的一次。所以總成績，總共有多少人當選，只怕要等到星期二才會真的知道。那之後，就要看青蛙跳了。


可是奇怪的是，這次大選前，在ｃｃ看到有很多人在看facebook，新聞，可是就是沒聽到有人在談，在咖啡店和嘛嘛檔也沒有聽到有任何言論的。講座是真的爆滿，但都不是ＢＮ的。今天是投票日，可是走在路上，竟然沒有人談去投票的事，沒人問投票了嗎，沒人說在投票站看到甚麽。因爲這些全在投票站說了？

Amiga, Esq. and BERSIH had said it before, GE13 is going to be the dirtiest, darkest one, and she and BERSIH are right.  At 5pm, I logged into my facebook account, and overwhelmed by the posts about dirty tricks at polling station. A video showing some people actually caught a foreign labourer at the polling station, put him in a van, and trying to get him to spill the beans. Lots of posts about police counting the number of people at the polling stations, and making phone calls to we-do-not-know-who. This is disturbing. But this is the bravest election ever, as a lot of citizens, aunties, uncles, yes, the kind of senior citizens we do not expect them to want any trouble with police, actually confronted those weird police personnel. And lots of Malaysians actually have this 'VOTE OR DIE' mental. A woman who is hospitalized because she had cancer, actually had an ambulance carried her to the polling station.

The only bizarre part is, though I had seen a lot on internet, newspapers, I just do not feel this from the people around me. I do see a lot of people reading about GE13 from internet in cybercafe, but do not hear anyone talking about it, not at cybercafe, not at kopitiam, not at mamak's; and even though news is showing lots of people rushing home to cast votes, looking at the traffic flow in KL, I just do not feel it.

It is kind of bizarre, I know a lot of people are at the polling stations, but a little bit far away from them, then it is just a regualr Sunday in Klang Valley. Like when they are away from polling stations, and away from internet, people are completely detached from GE13.

馬來西亞人第一次很熱衷投票

自從馬來西亞成立之後，自１９７０年代以來，這是第一次見到有這麽多馬來西亞人自發的號召同胞要投票，在國外的有不少人自行製作叫同胞回家投票的視頻，貼上youtube。facebook上也見到很多人留言，設立專頁，叫同胞回家投票。第一次感到投票是很好的感覺。

２０１３年５月５日，星期天，馬來西亞人記得投票。


For the first time in my life, I feel that casting ballot is a feel good thing. This is because lots and lots of Malaysians, who are either working or study abroad, are rushing home to vast their ballots on 5th May, 2013, Sunday. It had become the one and common goal for the entire Malaysia.

Why someone is saying they are Malaysians? 在台灣發生的，但有人說他們是馬來西亞過去的？

This youtube video,

is something that happened in Taiwan, but someone left comments stating the couple are Malaysians.

Huh? Why is that? Like they are really not Taiwanese, but Malaysians go all the way to Taiwan to do this?

Weird. And it Mentioned Yuan Pei, why? The one who left the comment really know them? Or Taiwanese are so embarrassed that it had been spread so wide so quickly, so he/she just try to point the finger else where, so the attention will be shifted else where?

Anyone know the truth?

Occupying the Bus And Taxi Lane

See the yellow lines on the road? In Kuala Lumpur Malaysia, this means that is a "BAS DAN TEKSI SAHAJA" lane, which means the lane is for buses and taxi only.

But that 4-wheel drive just park right on the lane. And the bus had to get into the normal car lane just to get pass it.

This is something that happens everyday in Kuala Lumpur. No matter what kind of city planning you have, a total lack of enforcing, and a public with absolute no sense of their civic duty, this is what we get when we have bus lane on the road, it became the parking lane. Only in Malaysia.

Will the Malaysians be more civic minded after 5th of May? I sincerely hope so. Just like the Greek fable Pandora's box, hope is inside all of this, and that is what keeps us going.

注意到路上的黃線嗎？在馬來西亞，巴生谷地帶，那表示兩條黃線中間是巴士和德士專用道。但那輛四輪驅動就很好意思的停在這巴士和德士專用道上；那輛巴士只得繞過它。在巴生谷這沒甚麽好奇怪的。不管有怎樣的城市規劃，沒人去真的執法，民衆不知何爲公德心，設專用道的結果就是變成停車專用道。只在馬來西亞。

5月5日之後，馬來西亞人會變得有點公德心嗎？我只能希望，期望。

Bombs and murders, all GE13 related?

For the past few days, we a number shootings were reported. And a few bombings at the political rallies. Are the shootings are bombing related?

Unlikely. The shootings were targeted at individuals, all them all killed on spot. The bombs were all placed at the political rallies.

But who were those victims of the gunshots? All men, but mostly small potatoes, maybe some of them got criminal records, did time in prison, but none of them were involved in high profile cases.The only important figure that was gunned down in the past week was the high ranking officer from custom. He was killed on his way to work, in his official car.

The bombs were clearly set to scare people. But the shootings all seemed unrelated. So is it safe to say that only the bombings are politically motivated? As 5th of May is approaching, it feels like the tension is heighten, like some desperate people are doing desperate things. We Malaysians really have to prepare to deal with those people.

What a circus! GE13 nomination day.

Yes, as expected, the GE13 nomination is a big circus.

A new record of 79 independents. Lots of party members, who are not fielded as candidates by their parties, defied their parties and nominated themselves; some had quit their parties before the nomination, some were expelled by their parties after the nomination.

Well, what do you expect? This time round, all the Malaysia people can talk about is GE13, and government rotation. Those who work overseas are campaigning for their fellow Malaysians to come back to vote. The opportunist and political frogs are not going to miss this once in a life time golden chance. I mean, this could be their ships. Only idiots and cowards are going to miss this.

As anti-corruption is missing from the manifestos from BN, and the opposition, let'say a prayer for Malaysia.

NOMINATION DAY TOMORROW, VOTE ON 5TH OF MAY

Tomorrow is 20th April, 2013, nomination day for GE13. Judging from the past experience, Malaysians are expecting circus shows when the candidates and their supporters show up for the nominations.

Any guess on what kinds of circus shows will be performed tomorrow?
