I'm never good in communicating. Self conscious, reserved, quiet at times, noisy at times. Land mine at worst, docile goat at best. I've come to acceptance. That is who I am. Sometimes a multitude of ideas popped out of nowhere, and at times erratic emotions took control. Sometimes pangs of bittersweet sensations come by and most of the time I'm pretty much calm ( just like everyone else ? )
Of course, I have to blog about BERSIH. What was the fuss all about? Are the mainstream medias reporting the truth? What actually happened? Why the tables are turned around? Lots of ambiguity and discussions about those issues. Kudos to people who actually went. They fought not only for themselves. They put themselves on the line, for us, the rakyat. The intentions are noble. Transparent and "clean" electoral system. That is what democracy is all about. I wouldn't know if our government is "bersih" or not in the previous elections, all i know, and what i know is that the rakyat had paid attention to this issue, and it would be best for the nation to have a clean election.
A random thought plagued me, what is there to be afraid of if our electoral system is VERY clean? NOTHING. Nothing to gain and nothing to lose. Its not a political issue at all. All races had come together, as ONE Malaysia towards this goal. All these talks about patriotism, well it showed during BERSIH. Old ladies, people in crutches, overseas students, all rally for the same cause, as peacefully as they can. Everyone wants the best for Malaysia.
Police worked hard for the peace to be maintained.
Governments want to keep the lines in place and keep the rakyat safe. I hope !
Bersih wants transparency.
Everyone wants the best for our nation ( and again hopefully ). Which is the way to go , I can't foretell , but bersih' s intention is definitely one of the ways to go.
