Assalam Chedet,
I like to wish you the best in celebrating our 61st Independence tomorrow. To me the 1957 Independence is nothing more that a symbol. We are still fighting for our independence after 6 decades of colonial freedom.
We are still fighting for Financial Independence from the UMNO Warlords. The few in power are still ruling the country like feudal lords, hogging the masses of wealth for them and their families. How does a government in an iddy biddy country like Malaysia can allow politicians to have so much wealth? It is almost sinful with the kind of wealth that they accumulate. As if there is no check and balance within our administration.
There is also the Religious Independence that is in question here. The Muslims are governed by two legal systems. While the other Malaysians are free to choose their religions, Muslims are not free to choose. Once you are a Muslim, you are set for life. This is a contradiction to the basic rights of the country.
A Muslim cannot have a will and must follow faraid, a Muslim cannot be a transgender and a Muslim cannot eat in public during Ramadan. To further inflict the insult, a Muslim carries Islam in his identity card.
The most disturbing one is the Freedom of Expression. Until the time when we are free to speak out freely, we are never independent. The masses are always under the control of the so called Big Brothers. It was proven that those in power are more interested to maintain status quo to serve the few. The masses are only tools to achieve these goals.
In this Malaysia Baru era, we need a government who can serve the people. We had witnessed how power without control had taken us to the dumps.
There is a lesson to be learned throughout this course. That lesson is, POWER CORRUPTS!
Therefore Chedet, quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Who is guarding the guards?
Sine cera,

What I really want to say is, Malaysia is so corrupted that we are run by crooks that use politics as a vehicle. I only care for one thing. That is I want to have a low cost of living. We cannot have such an environment as long as we don't have clean politicians.
The money game is too big. I don't know how long it will take to clean the system.
