March 11 -08

Dear Prime Minister,

First of all, I would like to welcome you in to the new era of Malaysians politics. The old money, racial and UMNO Putera politics is no more valid in this country where people choose freedom of rights and a democratic process. Many reasons have caused the big waves of change in your government. Some of the points are as below. I hope this will help you to restructure your government.

1. The peaceful assemblies being disrupted by the police for your own political gain.
2. The use of ISA on innocent Malaysians.
3. The on going corruption.
4. The failure of the judiciary system.
5. The involvement of government officials in the murder of Altantunya.
6. The federal constitution law is violated especially in the freedom of religion under article 11, example in the case of Subashini, Lina Joy, Holy Scriptures and Bibles banned from entering the country, the movie Passion of Christ being banned in Malaysia and the demolishment of holy temples.
7. The one sight media coverage.
8. Discrimination against the Indians.
9. Most of the government project are given to the UMNO Putera`s and fly.
10. The indecent and racial remarks made by your Ministers.
11. The keris issue by Hishamudin
12. No transparency in the accounts administration.
13. And of course much of the noise made by the empty vessel, Khairy.

well please spread the word please we need your help!

well here's a quick snip about the history of malaysia's general election and why this one(PRU 12) is the worst yet!

National Front is the longest serving legitimate party administering Malaysia for more than fifty years starting with the Municipal Elections in 1955 in the town area of Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Johor Bharu where UMNO (United Malay National Organization-Malay based party) and MCA (Malayan Chinese Associations-Chinese based party) had agreed on certain terms cooperating with each other to grab seats in the Members Committee formed by the British government as an accord and test whether the Malays can unite with the other main races (Chinese and Hindus) thus paving the way for Malaya independence in 1957.


After the triumph of the 1955 Municipal Elections, then MIC (Malaysian Indian Congress-Indian based party) had agreed to band wagon the alliance of UMNO-MCA thus forming an Alliance party inadvertently close the doors for Dato’ Onn to be the first Malaya Chief Minister with his non-communal party of Independence Malayan Party (IMF). Along the way, the Alliance had achieved great successes in building Malaysia as a great economic powerhouse and filling its independence. The party itself had experienced a lot of ups and downs and internal contradictions such as in 1969, thus transforming it into National Front party and again endured an internal and external crisis such had happened in 1989 (UMNO was declared illegal), Sabah political crisis and the sacking of Anwar Ibrahim in 1999 (just to name a few).

But for all the momentous outlining that National Front had endured and experienced, nothing can be compared with the elections result of the year 2008. For all the bad records of Alliance party or National Front setbacks, 2008 election results is the worst ever results which had been experienced by the National Front and such factors that contributes towards this worst defeat came from an internal factor within UMNO itself and an external factors which were dealt wrongly by the incumbent government thus precipitating a protest vote by all the three main races (Malay, Chinese and Hindus) against the National Front.

Differences between 1969 and 2008 election

If the year 1969 had showed how much the wealth gap between the Malays and the Chinese race had spark the racial violence which was transposed through the race riot of 1969. Plus the divide and rule policy of the British government for more than 200 years which was later inflamed by the uneven treatment by the Japanese government during the three years and eight months of the World War II, this factors had contributed by the uprising of the existing grudges by the two main races of Malaysia. This problem was later dealt with the understanding that the government with the need to reform the racial wealth balances by not extricate the wealth of the Chinese and give it to the Malays, but by creating a larger economic cake and bringing back the sidetrack Malay race after 200 years of isolations by the British government through the implementations of the New Economic Policy. I don’t wish to delve deep the differences of the economic wealth pre-1969 elections as my topic is concentrating on the 2008 election results.

The Worst Election Ever for National Front

2008 is a whole different matter for National Front. None of the factors which contribute towards the defeat of that party in 1969 anymore contributes towards the defeat in 2008. In 2008, the opposition’s party only reaping the benefits of sheer ignorance of the incumbent government in settling issues arises which affecting the Malaysian peoples. Here I underline the reasons and factors which contribute to the worst defeat ever since 1957 in a chronology manner:-

Bad advisers – Prime Minister Abdullah had been getting bad advices from the beginning of his tenure as the fifth Prime Minister. Such advices had lead to numerous bad decisions by the executive power such as:-

The bad formations of the cabinet portfolios in 2004 (after the 11th elections) which sees redundant responsibilities of the government ministries that impedes the executive branch from executing efficient order or task and confused the government apparatus with their mechanism in catering the needs of the Malaysian citizens such cases can be seen in areas concerns:-

1) Ministry of Home Affairs vs Ministry of Internal Security;

2) Ministry of Regional (Kementerian Wilayah Persekutuan) vs Ministry of Rural Areas and Regional (Kementerian Luar Bandar dan Wilayah) vs Local Council vs Ministry of Housing and Local Government (Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan);

3) Ministry of National Heritage and Culture vs Ministry of Tourism ;

The cancellations of the Malaysian bidding for Asia’s Games in 2006 which shows that Malaysia unwilling to challenge human ingenuity of making the games succeed on Malaysia’s soil despite having the first class facilities after the success of 1998 Commonwealth games;

The Foreign Office blunder of apologizing to the Chinese government on the video case of allegedly Chinese citizens squatting despite the true identity of the women after detail investigations which shows that it was a Malaysian lady. The failure of PR to explain the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for such accused individual to squat aim to force any foreign object in accused body or in that particular case drugs substance to voluntarily push out from her vagina;

The terminations of PROTON’s CEO (Tengku Tan Sri Mahaleel Tengku Ariff), despite his achievement in accumulating PROTON’s cash savings and with the building of the Tanjung Malim Proton’s City at the costing of 1.3 billion using PROTON’s own funds without borrowing any single cents form the government;

The cancellations of the double railway electric trains projects along the West coast lines (16 trains/ a day) at 160kmph which will see the integrations of rural area into big cities of Johor Bharu - Kuala Lumpur – Ipoh – Penang – Padang Besar and all the cities along the proposed lines;

The selling of the MV Agusta companies at the price of 1 Euro far outweigh its real market price despite buying the coveted high-tech Italian motorcycle company at the 400 million dollars on the intentions of small engine technology transfer to PROTON to built its own small engine consuming less fuel in parallel with the market demand;

The cancellations of the Scenic Bridge on the Johore Causeway after the projects had been undertaken on the views that such structure development had interfered on the sovereignty of Singapore and the cancellations reimbursement which cost higher than building the bridge itself to Gerbang Perdana that was in charge on the project development;

The desertion of Multimedia Super Corridor project and it’s lost of exclusiveness when areas concerns are unable to be determined lucidly and land that was neglect unproductively. The unproductive e-village projects and un-enthusiast investment on such areas even though such potentials is still high where Infosys that was set up in India at the same time amounting to more than 40 billion dollars;

The stagnations of Putrajaya development projects with the cancellations of its monorail intercity projects and slow pace of Putrajaya development itself.

Tun Dr. Mahathir’s character assassinations by the media – After the Prime Minister Abdullah took over the helm from his predecessor; the media’s had launched a character assassinations campaign non-stop by portraying a very bad image of the former Prime Minister. The public especially the Chinese community feel discontented because they revered the former Prime Minister as their saviour in the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis and the Malays community themselves who remembered Tun Dr. Mahathir as one of the great statesmen Malaysia had offered before feel dissatisfied and disgruntled seeing the unjust treatment of the media towards their national hero.

Tun Dr. Mahathir open critics towards his successor – This factor played a major part when Tun Dr. Mahathir failed to advise Prime Minister Abdullah in his decision making process on certain matters and launched an open critics on how Prime Minister Abdullah decision’s was decided. Seeing such an act by the former Prime Minister, Malaysian especially the Chinese community that was far economic aware feel such critics must at least be heard and understood in an intellectual manner. But again Prime Minister Abdullah failed to understand such critics and advice.

Khairy Jamaluddin Abu Bakar factor - Perhaps one of the major factors which contribute to the worst defeat ever of the National Front party is the ambitious young man named Khairy Jamaluddin. Being cropped up from nowhere, most Malaysian believes this young man is the main factor behind every government decision making process. His relationship with Prime Minister Abdullah as the Abdullah’s son in law and even though denied by Prime Minister Abdullah that this man had influenced him on every government decision making process, but the public perceptions is high that he is the man behind all the bad government decisions.

In politics, where perceptions is much more important than reality, Khairy Jamaluddin perhaps is the most hated man in Malaysia of all time but with his powerful connections and daily image boost through the media put him on the post of UMNO Youth Deputy and he often talks on government policies where the cabinet ministers themselves shunned talking about it. The scandals behind Khairy Jamaluddin is numerous as underline below (just to name a few):-

i. Khairy Jamaluddin was first seen above the rules and regulations or the law by the public when he was officially involved in the politics despite holding professional governmental post in the Prime Minister department which according to the rules he had to let go his governmental post to get involved actively in politics;


ii. ECM-Libra Avenue scandal;

iii. Pantai Holdings sell out to Singapore owned GLC’s;

iv. The cancellations of Scenic Bridge projects;

v. The personal passing hand to hand of Former Deputy Prime Minister passport when Anwar Ibrahim was freed by the Malaysian court;

vi. Much publicised his MyTeam football team which was sponsored by Scomi;

vii. Peoples perceptions on his personal influences and involvement in any government decisions and contracts awards;

viii. Peoples perceptions on his personal involvement in the naming of the 2008 National Fronts UMNO elections candidates;

ix. The usage of UMNO owned media companies to boost Khairy’s own image through daily exposure of his personal activities and views regarding governmental policies and decisions despite no cabinet post portfolio vested when he is only holding the political post of UMNO Youth Deputy;

x. Khairy’s numerous blunder’s remarks against the oppositions leaders such as to PAS spiritual leader Nik Aziz Nik Mat challenging him to take back particular views regarding certain matters or law action will taken but at the end nothing happens;

xi. Khairy’s personal racist sentiments remarks against the Chinese community when there is no issues to be raised so that he will be seen as the saviour of the Malay based community;

xii. Khairy’s incorrect remarks on the New Economic Policy whereas such policies had already over in 1990 and was replaced by the New Development Policy and Vision 2020 policy. Such remarks on the New Economic Policy was seen by the public as to only boost his image as the championing of the Malay based community;

xiii. Khairy’s personal involvement in building Putera UMNO brigade consisting members from “Mat Rempits/ Illegal street racers” to be the action arms of UMNO Youth despite bad records from Malaysian Royal Police that such an act will only worsen the illegal racing in Malaysia;

xiv. Royal Malaysian Police staffs perceptions towards Khairy’s personal involvement in the formations of IPCMC (Independent Police Commissions of Conduct) which was seen by the Police as unnecessary check and balance apparatus;

xv. The conduct of Khairy in leading the UMNO members gathering during Condoleezza Rice visits to Malaysia on the issues of Palestinian treatment by the Israelis where such gathering was seen by the public as double standard measures by the local authorities and Malaysian Police in awarding permits and treatment on the rioting of UMNO members;

xvi. Khairy’s purposelessness and un-bearings personal vendetta against the former Prime Minister Mahathir which was seen by the public as a rash act and foolhardy on the comparative basis that this young man without any achievement went against an old and revered statesman.

Unclear answers on certain issues by the particular Cabinet Ministers of Prime Minister Abdullah on the issues of Approved Permits (AP’s);


Immature remarks by some Cabinet Ministers of many issues answered in a childish manner on public media such as by Minister Nazri Aziz, Minister Zainuddin Maidin and Deputy Minister Shaziman;

of many issues answered in a childish manner on public media such as by Minister Nazri Aziz, Minister Zainuddin Maidin and Deputy Minister Shaziman;

Unclear scandal and grudges arises between the Minister of Internal Security and the Malaysian Inspector General of Police on the issues of the release of convicts by the Minister himself whereas the bloggers who revealed such scandal haven’t been found yet and no progress report on the investigations case;


The performance of National Front Members of Parliament in explaining and debating issues in the lower house whereas National Front’s MPs were more prone to raise personal issues such as personal applications of AP’s, grudges towards the bloggers, and dull remarks on the issues of bloggers and women in Malaysia (proved one point of raised by Thomas Friedman in his book The World is Flat);


The waving of the “Keris” (Malay’s traditional weapons) during the UMNO General Assembly thus depicting an unnecessary act of rocking the racial boat of understanding between the Malays and the Chinese. It was seen by the critics that such act as a deviations by the UMNO Youth to be seen as the champion of the Malays race on the reality basis there are no real issues to be debated (the status quo remains unchallenged);


The increasing price of the world crude oil which exceeds 60 dollar per barrel thus affecting every products price within the Malaysian market. Such inflations problems or the increase of product prices was seen by the public are not dealt correctly where big companies are allowed to reap the profits while Malaysian consumers had to deal with the spiralling inflations plus the increase of the toll hike;


Basic necessities of the Malaysian daily products such as flour, cooking oil, sugar that was lost in the daily market seen by the Malaysian peoples as obsolete third world economic problems and the handling of such crisis are sure to be doom where the government took the approach of suppressing the market forces thus ensuring the losing the products necessities in the market;


Unwise handling of the HINDRAF issues by the security analyst which failed to advise Prime Minister Abdullah to act fast on the dire allegations made by the HINDRAF members which escalate the situations thus bent the support of the Hindus vote for the National Front completely during the 2008 elections;


Complete utilization of the media as a propaganda tools for National Front in putting Prime Minister Abdullah and boosting his personal image more than it should had inculcate a reverse psychology message to the Malaysian that they fed up with such cheap publicity.

People’s message

The peoples of Malaysia had cast a very clear message to Prime Minister Abdullah to act in a rightful manner. Whether Prime Minister Abdullah will do the right thing to rectify back on what National Front had gone wrong, only he and himself have the answer. The longer he delayed on the right decision, UMNO and National Front will pay the price of such ignorance.

Clearly one factors doesn’t chip in to the National Front worst defeat in 2008 elections. But with the build up of wrong decisions after another, and the appointment of wrong advisers who advice Prime Minister on what he wants to hear, National Front had to endure its worst embarrassment. For the performance and factors which contributes to the worst defeat of the National Front, I have underline clearly as above details. For that I rest my case.

now here's a essay for you to do some research on regarding this 2008 malaysian 12th general election

I will like to write in malay because my mother tongue.

Mungkinkah kita tidak perasan bahawa..
Dimalam kemelut yang sedang melanda didalam politik tanah air, kita diserang oleh rasa gundah melihat sistem pentadbiran negara yang tunggang langgang tanpa hala tuju yang nyata untuk membangunkan satu negara dan bangsa dimata dunia. Keadaan ini telah menyebabkan hilangnya rasa kepercayaan akar umbi terhadap kepimpinan negara.

Justeru itu rakyat telah menyatakan rasa tidak puas hati dengan membuat bantahan mereka melalui peti undi pada pilihanraya 2008 baru baru ini. Akibatnya kita telah kehilangan sokongan 2/3 dan hanya mendapat majoriti sebanyak 148 kerusi sahaja.

Desakan telah dibuat oleh rakyat disusuli pula dengan desakan saorang wira umno tulen yang tidak memikirkan kepentingan diri iaitu Dato Mukhriz Tun, Dr Mahathir dengan menghantar surat rayuan kepada Perdana Menteri bagi menyatakan hasrat supaya pucuk pimpinan tertinggi melepaskan jawatan agar kepercayaan rakyat bertaut kembali. Dalam hal ini kita tidak boleh mengharapkan Dato Mukhriz berjuang kesaorangan dan disarankan kepada semua Ahli KMU berganding bahu bersama beliau untuk menyelamatkan negara dari jatuh ketangan pembangkang jika resolusi mendesak Abdullah Badawi meletakkan jawatan tidak mencapai matlamat.

Saya yakin pada pilihanraya akan datang ( PRU13) rakyat tanpa rasa kasih dan cinta lagi pada parti akan bertindak lebih drastik lagi dengan kuasa undi yang ada pada mereka. Kebencian ini harus di sekat dengan cara yang terbaik iaitu Abdullah Badawi MESTI melepaskan Jawatan sebagai Perdana Menteri dan juga Presiden UMNO tanpa sebarang syarat.

Saya merayu kepada SEMUA VETERAN UMNO TAMPIL menyatakan pendapat serta sokongan desakan daripada akar umbi agar dapat menyelamatkan Negara ini terus di tunggang langgang oleh kerajaan anak beranak ini.

Sesiapa yang tahu, dimana mereka ini berada sila hubungi mereka.


To Cut it short for you readers, Our country needs those veterans of UMNO elections of war.NOt nowadays cheating cunts like Khairy or Noraini.They just don't know the meaning of winning a election for years unlike some people like our Ku Li-Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah...and the now deceased Datuk Ibrahim Ali who defected to PAS so let us unite and take down the UMNO CURRENT LEADERSHIP for a new one free of corruption

I found something that will deny Khairy's and Anwar's hope of getting PM of Malaysia even though it's impossible with Pak Lah in charge.This surely will boost najib's hope of getting it instead.Nothing weird here
just R. A. H. M. A. N.
R tunku abdul rahman
Aabdul razak

M tun mahathir
A abdullah badawi
N NAJIB TUN RAZAK??


well what did u think..?I think not possible because Najib has the altantuya case to dealt with so bet goes to ANWAR

Penasihat Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, sekarang ini dipercayai sedang mengatur satu proses "coup de tat" secara aman melalui pembelian wakul rakyat dan pemimpin Barisan Nasional agar berhijrah ke dalam PKR.

Menurut sumber tertinggi UMNO dan risikan, antara tumpuan Anwar Ibrahim sekarang ini ialah terhadap ahli Parlimen yang kecewa terutama di Sabah dan di negeri-negeri yang Barisan Nasional kalah. Seorang bekas Menteri Besar UMNO (dipercayai Selangor) turut ditawarkan RM 50 juta dan mengekalkan jawatan Menteri Besar jika beliau sanggup masuk PKR.

Selain itu, usaha-usaha untuk melemahkan ikatan Barisan Nasional turut dilakukan dengan cubaan memujuk MIC, MCA dan Gerakan untuk keluar BN menyertai pakatan longgar pembangkang yang di kenali sebagai Barisan alternatif.

Menurut laporan yang disediakan untuk kepimpinan UMNO, usaha memecah belahkan ikatan BN sedang dilakukan seperti teori domino bermula dengan MIC, PBS, Gerakan dan akan berakhir dengan MCA.

Selain itu, Anwar kini dianggarkan mempunyai sumber kewangan hampir RM 3 billion hasil pembiayaan "luar negara" khusus untuk menarik ahli Parlimen BN menyertai PKR. Anwar dikatakan meletak sasaran kejatuhan UMNO dan BN sekitar bulan Mei dan Jun tahun ini.

Sasaran utama di Sabah ialah kerana dikatakan wang tersebut kini berada di akaun pesisir pantai (offshore bangking) di Labuan.

Bagi seorang penganalisis pengurusan ekonomi yang bercakap kepada mykmu.net, perlantikan Khalid Ibrahim sebagai Menteri Besar Selangor akan memberi satu signifikan penting kepada usaha Anwar ini.

"Terdapat 6-7 syarikat senaraian awam yang berstatus syarikat anak kerajaan negeri Selangor seperti Kumpulan Perangsang Selangor, Kumpulan Darul Ehsan Berhad (KDEB), Glomac, Worlwide dan Kumpulan Hartanah Negeri Selangor. Justeru wang luar negara untuk dana politik Anwar dengan mudah akan dibawa masuk melalui pelaburan ke dalam syarikat-syarikat ini."

"Khalid Ibrahim sebagai orang yang mahir dalam tipu helah kewangan akan mula melakukan transaksi pembelian dan pelaburan untuk perladangan, hartanah dan sebagainya dengan syarikat-syarikat di Indonesia dan Singapura. Transaksi ini akan melibatkan manipulasi harga dan struktur kewangan yang kompleks tetapi akhirnya akan "membersihkan wang-wang di luar negara" ini masuk ke dalam Malaysia untuk dana Anwar."

Menurut penganalisis ini, jika benar ada usaha meningkatkan kekuatan kewangan Anwar dan PKR bagi menjatuhkan kerajaan BN, maka dalam masa beberapa bulan akan datang kita akan melihat kenaikan pelaburan yang amat ketara kepada anak-anak syarikat kerajaan negeri Selangor dan juga akan berlaku satu

Sementara itu, cakap-cakap di kalangan ahli politik mendedahkan sebahagian ahli Parlimen di sabah bersedia masuk PKR sekiranya Abdullah membuat keputusan melantik Khairy Jamaluddin sebagai Menteri.

Khairy dijangka dilantik sebagai Menteri Belia dan Sukan atau Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri.

Gosip yang sedang tersebar sekarang ialah hampir 20 ahli Parlimen BN dikatakan membuat pengakuan kepada Anwar untuk menyertai beliau sekiranya kemelut dalaman UMNO tidak dapat diselesaikan segera.

Mereka juga dikatan bersedia berpindah ke dalam PKR jika Anwar berjaya membuktikan beliau mampu mendapat lagi 20 orang ahli Parlimen bagi membolehkan BA mendapat jumlah yang mencukupi bagi memperolehi maJoriti sokongan di Parlimen.

20 orang ini dikatakan ditawar antara RM 10 - 20 juta setiap orang.

Bagaimanapun kebenaran cakap-cakap politik ini tidak dapat disahkan buat masa ini. Mungkin sedikit masa lagi kita akan mendapatkan senarai 20 orang ini.
well anwar is like a thailand military leader with networks worldwide.Just think where did he get all the funds to buy BN parliament men?

well care for a sleep again paklah???
The ‘sleeping administration’ of Prime Minister Badawi has been served its wake-up call. And this time it is the Malaysian public that is going to be making the demands on the state, and not vice-versa

On March 8, 2008, Malaysians went to the polls and voted in the country’s 12th general elections. The results, as they were announced over the very same evening and well into the next morning, sent shock waves across the country.

After being in power for more than half a century, the ruling National Front Coalition not only lost the vital two-thirds majority of seats in Parliament, but came close to losing its majority altogether. In the bargain, five state governments were lost, and the opposition coalition made up of the Pan-Malaysian Islamic party (PAS), the Democratic Action Party (DAP) and the People’s Justice Party (PKR) won more than 80 Parliamentary seats and control of five state assemblies.

The most remarkable thing about the election results on the day itself was the fact that they were hardly ever mentioned in the mainstream state-controlled media. As the results came pouring in, it was clear that there was about to be a massive swing to the opposition and that the administration of Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi was in for a pounding.

Yet official commentators on TV and radio could only mumble inanities such as “we never knew the public were so disaffected”. How? Why?

This election was a clear and simple sign that the Malaysian public has grown thoroughly fed up and disillusioned by the empty promises of the Badawi government, that had won such an overwhelming mandate in 2004. Badawi came to power on a wave of electoral promises, ranging from institutional reform, the opening and freeing of the public domain, the settlement of outstanding cases of high-level corruption and abuse of power, greater transparency and accountability.

Yet after five dismal years, hardly any of these promises have been fulfilled and instead the Malaysian public were fed with broken promises, stunts and gimmicks that were better suited to a vaudeville opera instead.

While thousands of Malaysians continued to live below the poverty line and as prices and crime rates soared, the Badawi government sent a Malaysian astronaut as a space tourist on board a Russian spacecraft, just to break its own book of records.

While the poor Malay-Muslims of northern states such as Kelantan and Trengganu looked for sound economic development and equal distribution of wealth, Badawi’s government treated them to an Islamic civilisation theme park that cost 250 million ringgit (RM), complete with merry-go-round instead.

The real merry-go-round, however, was the Badawi establishment’s total failure to address key institutional, structural and socio-cultural issues that had irked and alienated so many Malaysians over the past four years: the non-Malay minorities have been demanding greater state protection of their collective identities after the spate of Hindu temple demolitions, denial of permits for building churches, seizure of Bibles, etc.

Yet in all these cases, when and where Badawi could have personally intervened, he did nothing and stood silent and indifferent, falling back on his worn-out mantra of being the ‘Prime Minister of all Malaysians’.

But surely the Prime Minister of all Malaysians would stand up for the rights of minorities, defend the plight of the poor and marginalised, listen to the demands and protests of the disaffected, and actually take corrective measures to do his job properly. Throughout 2006-2007 all the signs of a latent protest movement were there, with lawyers demonstrating for judicial reform, ordinary citizens calling for free and fair elections, and religious minorities begging to have their concerns addressed.

The Badawi administration’s reaction to these demands was to demonise protestors, set the police on civil society gatherings, refuse permits for public seminars, ban books deemed dangerous, and stifle freedom of press instead.

Thus it came to pass that an inward-looking administration cut off and isolated from its own public was finally served its notice last weekend. Throughout the campaign the opposition parties of PKR, DAP and PAS repeatedly used the now-iconic image of Prime Minister Badawi dozing off asleep during one of his UMNO party’s meetings, as an emblem of an administration that is cut off, unable to listen and unwilling to respond.

By the second week of the campaign it was clear that the momentum had developed and that the vote swing this time round would be as great as in 2004, though in the opposite direction.

The morning after, a shocked and dazed Badawi stood before the cameras and admitted that his administration had failed to take into account the demands of the public. But with a weakened government and a UMNO party that is unwilling and unable to correct itself, how can there possibly be any change to the Malaysian governmental system, save by voting UMNO and the National Front out of power at the next elections?

This much, however, is certain: The ‘sleeping administration’ of Prime Minister Badawi has been served its wake-up call. And this time it is the Malaysian public that is going to be making the demands on the state, and not vice-versa.
