Terima Kash Tun Mahathir
Monday, March 10th, 2008Well I guess all of us are still in the state of shock from
the fresh PRU-12. Most people will remember this occasion as the worst campaign
for BN since independence. Apparently, I strongly think it should be remembered
as the time Malaysians wake up from their day-dreaming state and critically
deciding from the ballot boxes. It’s a huge transition in Malaysian Politics
and voters maturity in weighing their future seriously.
Many BN full-hearted supporters sent me messages that express
their discontent and disappointment with scholars who are studying overseas
sponsored by “the government” are happily chanting opposition themes. They even
made it sound blasphemous and strongly reflecting these students as traitors to
the nation. It sounds so ridiculous. Many are not able to differentiate between
“government’s money” and “rakyat’s money”. As a matter of fact, the
scholarships are based on my parents money, Pak Abu’s money, Lim’s money,
Bala’s money etc. It’s from the tax-payers money. In short, I strongly think
that these scholars are not indebted to the government, instead they owe the
people the knowledge that they earn by being honest and critical in their
judgement for the good of the many.
