BERSIH 2.0

I'm pretty sure the twitter's timeline and fb statuses are full on #bersih. I have my own stand regarding Bersih. If by reading this, it can do harm to your blood pressure, i advise for you to stay away :)

Some people said Bersih is about to cover anwar's scandals, some said it is an act against the government, worst, they are actually comparing this to Libya, Egypt and Thailand [exaggerated much?] :) i can't change these people's perceptions on how they view Bersih. People comes from different background, with different idealism. Some are against this because they believe that Malaysia should be kept peaceful. Those who support believes that the citizens should be treated rightfully, and btw, by having this street protest, that doesn't mean they don't love their countries you know. They love and they are trying to protect Malaysia from becoming more dirty/corrupted. You see, people have different ideas, different perception and you can't assume people to be similar to you. and honestly, tak payahlah gaduh gaduh sampai nak kecik hati with your friends. that is so childish. make it a discussion and discuss your views. :)

what do i believe. i personally agree with what Bersih is fighting for. a clean election. They demand for the use of inedible inks, for those who livings oversea are allowed to vote using posts etc. We have thousands of students and workers who work oversea. Don't they deserve to vote? Some who against claimed that they should have sent the memorandum without having the street protests, well well, in case you have forgotten, bersih 2007 was also fighting for almost the same cause. but taraaa, nothing has changed.

I don't see any reason why the government won't allow this to settle peacefully in the first place. Like they have in London, Hong Kong and Australia. If the so called democratic of Malaysia can allow this to happen peacefully without having to treat their own citizens in the way you're seeing in most videos posted in you tube, i'm pretty sure the government will gets credits on that. Come on, the number who joined Bersih yesterday should meant something right? It's a massive numbers of Malaysians. The government wouldn't want to take a risk of what happened during GE of 2008, right?

By saying all this, i am not admitting i am on the side of opposition. But, I believe in a fair government who does justice to its people despite whoever ruling. If the opposition win, that doesn't guarantee a clean government too, right? [i'm pretty sure they are gonna have a tough time covering the debts made by the current ones heh] .But we always still have a choice to vote.

ouh btw, the medias and police should be impartial in keeping peace, yes?

My conclusion, we can believe in different beliefs. But, make sure those beliefs are the informed ones :) Some may be misguided. with this, i thank you for reading. and sorry an advance if i might offense you in any way. toodles~ :D
