A day before 26th Aug 08

Some calls it “The Mother of all Election” and some call it “Road to Putrajaya” and it may be called in many other names. After 50 years of independence the nation is faced with a political scenario that the nation has not confronted before. I guess the aftermath of the recent political tsunami has not stopped making its waves and many rumours were surrounding the current political situation. Some say whatever happens in Permatang Pauh will change the entire political landscape of this nation.

I was talking to some of my colleague about the up coming by election and all of them were very excited about it even though they were not voters in Permatang Pauh. I mentioned that I may be making a visit to Permatang Pauh to check the scene tonight and immediately one of them mentioned that he too was interested to be part of the excitement that is galvanizing the nation and the possibility of creating history . Few of them joined in and said that they wish to join me for a drive to Permatang Pauh. So stay tuned for more news after out visit to the ground and hopefully the FRU won’t stop my car and detain me for taking in more passenger like “kereta sapu”.

The nation waits anxiously for a new dawn to rise, is it a possible dream? Will Malaysia rise to a new beginning? Will the winds of change continue to sweep Malaysia for a better future? These are some of the questions that have been playing in the people’s mind since 16th Aug 08. Will Malaysia see a new beginning or will it be continued to be pushed into the dark ages like the past 50 years?

Can the people in Permatang Pauh make a difference, do the folks in Permatang Pauh realize the mammoth task that they have in their hands? heading to. What responsibity they hold and the whole nation is waiting for them to cast their vote tomorrow which will decide the fate of our nation. Permatang Pauh is the ultimate test for all that we wished for and only time will tell us if that is a possible dream!
