Political Leanings

It's quite late over here (1130pm) so just a quick one.

Recently had been following the Malaysia elections quite a bit as quite a few of my friends are Malaysians and generally supporters of the opposition.

From the stories i gather from them as well as what i generally read on facebook, it's not going to be a fair election despite the many BERSIH (3 at last count) rallies held over the last years. All the dirty tricks appear to be out even some extremely dumb ones such as accusing the opposition that it's their fault when banners which you yourself printed turn out to be pirated of  certain other people's work.

Reading of all these keeps bringing to mind that it's really an unfair world out there and there's not much we can do about it.

I keep thinking and logic tells me that the current governing party will win especially with all the dirty tricks they are playing but some small part of me can't help but root for the underdog opposition and hope they win and prove that there is some good in the world after all.

Signing off as a hopeless idealist

PS. wonder what will happen when it comes to SG's turn come 2016
