The Malaysia Today

It seem that everything in Malaysia is political in nature or somehow link to politicians. Somehow nothing gets done without the politicians' involvement. And all things seem to be centered around race, religions and the rulers. Nothing seem more important than race, religions and the rulers. Why are Malaysians stuck in the illusion that these are all matters in life?

The history of Malaysia officially begins in 1957 the year I was born. Can still remembers seeing white woman on a horse crossing our village or English soldiers marching through . Then the May 13th incident where we have a short break from school. But nothing exciting happens here in Taiping. Couldn't understand what politics is all about . But can still remember a little of the pictures of a sailing boat , rice grains and one with a red bull's head. I don't know what parties are they but they seem to be the talk of the old folks in the kampung. Maybe they know little too about them but help spread the rumours that this or that party is good for them.

After the 12th election , then only do I understand the importance of politics for a developed and prosperous nation. Is it too late ? But then I believe that life is a journey and not set span of life on earth. We must be learning and working or else one is already dead and waiting to be buried. A burden to the earth consuming but not producing.

The politics of Malaysia had to be transformed. But first the mindsets and maturity of the politicians must be transformed first. For a strong nation to rise up ,the minds and hearts of the leaders and politicians must be anchored on solid rock. Then when the storm and winds blows , it will not fall away. Right now all Malaysians are struggling to save themselves in the whirlpool that our leaders and politicians had stirred. Let alone saving others around the world. To be transformed all Malaysians must be brave to let go and accept the truth and solution that already existed for a long time. But the hearts and eyes of many are veiled and could not see the truth . The truth that can set all free.

So, the stumbling blocks and veils must be removed first before transformation can take place. We must be brave enough to speak to our fathers or sons ,who are the stumbling blocks , that they must repent and accept the change ,so that we are all free and live in peace and harmony. Are you brave enough ? Do you want a better life for all. Or do you only want the best for yourself and your own? Only when all are free would the whirlpool stop and calm comes upon this land , Malaysia.
