There is no complete perfectly clean and honest political parties in this world. You need to understand why PH needed to work with BN to form the current unity government for the greater good of this country. Politicians have to be flexible in their principles in times when it calls for as long as the intention is for the benefit of rakyat and the country. One needs to look at the macro overview rather than finding imperfection on the micro issues. In short, cast your vote for the lesser of two evils. Don't forget your abstention may just give the 1 vote win to the bigger evil, let a lone to say the bigger catastrophic outcome if you rallying others to do the same. In summary, I do understand your point of view, like you, I'm just presenting the other perspective on this matter. Just a thought to ponder on.

Malaysia is in a very sorry state where our only choice of government is cast your vote for the lesser of two evils.

DSAI promised to clean up corruption.
Give him a chance like Indonesian President to clean up corruption in Indonesia for the last 10 years.
10 ministers in Indonesia were sacked and sentenced for corruption.
KLSE will perform like JSX, increase 846%.

Malaysian debt is about 1.5 trillion, money stolen according to one report is 4.5 trillion.
After less out the debt of 1.5 trillion, the leftover money is 3.0 trillion.
The population of Malaysia is about 33 million, each citizen will entitle 910 thousand each.
With this amount of money, I think KLSE will go up 846%.

Give DSAI a chance to rule for 10 years in Malaysia, let him collect back all stolen money from all parties concerned.
An unofficial report, one VIP has 1.3 trillion parked outside Malaysia. DSAI wants to take back this money from this VIP.
Please give a chance to DSAI and support the present unity government.

If the largest rice choose PAS, what can Malaysian do to help? Nothing lah. The largest rice turn to strict fundamental religion principles because Ummo eats too much mo ney, can not be trusted. Largest rice believes strict fundamental religion principles can cure our nation ill health. How can we help to change the largest rice beliefs in Pas???

Above is the main reason why the largest rice supports Pas. Do you understand???


Kids Siang does not know why largest rice chooses Pas? Or Kids Siang doesn’t want to tell the largest rice that Pas is also ko rup, because Pas will say Kid Siang is anti Green Wave government.

The author needs to be able to differentiate between state and federal issues. Most if not all his grouses are related to federal matters. As for state, we'll need to look at the development and progress of the state and infrastructure. How is the corruption level and do we/our children need to move to other states to look for work and you'll have your answer to which party to vote for.

Ma, my team lost, I don't want to watch anymore. Sounds like a crybaby who thinks that 1 vote every few years will change things. People like this dream of a good life by voting, but don't actively contribute other times. If more people give up standing for justice when it is difficult, or too scared to speak against evil, will society get better? To not vote is not a stand to make to be heard. If everyone like you doesn't vote but at closing time, 1 vote was cast, it is still a win!! If you want to just sit down and do nothing to protest and be heard, go do a hunger strike. If you don't participate in democracy, what else is left? Wake up! Political slogans are not promises. When there is no majority, then negotiation is the alternative. Duh, simple like that also you don't know. For a sure win, vote for a dictator; a dictator sure wins, and everyone else loses. Sounds like you are not a real PH supporter, more like a mole to discourage PH supporters.
