Is There No Hope For The Future?

The Johor state elections reflected a sentiment expressed in the Malacca polls. Reforms are not necessary for the future. Money politics, kleptocrats and court clusters are fine with us!

Voter turnout was slightly above 50%. Apathy? Why? A fractured opposition is great for BN. BN promises “stability for the future”.

What about the youth vote? Unimportant, only 20% of total turnout. So who is the opposition? DAP. PKR performed just like in Malacca- badly! It is not the logo, it is not that it is multi-racial, it just has a leader from a previous era! A reformist party that fails to reform. The leader only has one thing to say – “I have the numbers”.

Bersatu or Perikatan Nasional is like a spent mistress. No one believes in them. Not even UMNO. Another going to the grave! Forget about Warisan and Pejuang.

But what motivates the N-Z gang? Both need power to turn their cases to history the “juice of freedom” is more powerful than doing what is right. And sadly they know what it takes!.

There is a whole spectrum of local and national issues to exploit – inequality, religious intolerance, 2nd rate education, floods, corruption and many more! Just focus on what the rakyat need – higher wages, more money transfers, opportunities for employment, healthcare and better delivery of services. Where was data analytics? And Invoke?

Do we have to wait for an UMNO infighting? Are there no leaders/leadership to bring change? Can’t we get a local Zelensky to do it? Unless we do, there is little hope of a change in GE15.
