bIG EVEnTS In tHE YEar~!! PArt 1 ^^

This year is a big year. Lots of meaningful events were happened during May.

The first big thing was the 13th general election on 5th of May. I was so excited to be the first time voter as I believed that this was the responsibility of every Malaysian. However, the 13th general election was differing from previous elections because unexpected chaos and rumors had occurred. I would like to sum up some interesting rumors here:

1. Indelible ink was introduced during this  election but the ink could be easily washed off. This was proven by my uncle and me.

2. There had been a number of reports claiming that government was flying in thousands of foreigners to parts of Malaysia to influence the outcome of the vote in favour of BN. On that day, there were also videos and pictures about the illegal foreigners trying to vote for BN. Many people were trying to protect their electoral districts from this act by safegurding their own electoral districts.

3. There were blackouts during the counting of votes in several electoral districts. Furthermore, people were accusing Election Commission for not remaining neutral in the election as they were accused of helping the government to change the results of several electoral districts. My hometown Bentong was one of the electoral districts which the result was claimed to be manipulated. 

4. The government organized a concert with many Chinese idols in Penang with the purpose of getting IC information from attendants. So, they can register the attendants under BN and prevent them from voting DAP or try to void their votes since Penang is a state with majority Chinese.

5. The 13th general election was won by BN, however Najib Razak ( our prime minister) was not satisfied with the result. Compared to the last general election, BN had lost more supports from the people. Najib Razak even stated that his victofailure* (An unpleasant victory *created by me) was caused by the 'Chinese Tsunami'. He also claimed that Chinese in Malaysia was cheated and used by the opposition. Opposition had told lied to damage the BN's reputation and try to gain supports from the Chinese.

6. So on.

On 8 May, Anwar of PKR led a rally of at least 200,000 black-clad protesters in a football stadium near Kuala Lumpur. He denounced the election as fraudulently stolen. However, I was unable to attend because of my final year project, assignments, tests and presentations. Now Anwar was having rallys in different districts in Malaysia. He was trying to appeal for the re-election. Furthermore, he was planning to bring lawsuits to the court.

Now, this big political issue is prevailing in my country and everyone is talking about it. 

I am so curious to know how this thing goes on.

First Time Voters! We were gorgeous!
