I woke up this morning

I've been drained of my life source by the lords of Mr. S for the past 7 months, and I'm regaining what I've lost, SLEEP!

So I woke up today, doing my usual routine of Subuh, then a couple pages of the book I'm currently reading, then a quick doze off, then I wake up and open up my laptop. My heart skipped a beat today. I'm not going into details, but may I say, you look real beautiful my dear. Delightful in every sense, an essence of happiness in each smile. :D

So, we gots this Bersih thingy a couple days back eh? I do believe, after reading one article (trying to be cynical here, failed attempt, I know), that the fight for free and fair elections is just. People have the right to know and believe that their casted votes are not being manipulated by a third party to benefit another party. Especially if said party is the party the voted against. Good enough for me. Though, I'd think the whole street demo was a bit of a "huh-hah" thingy rather than a real force for a legitimate cause. You have you're reasons, I have mine. But here's the next question I'd like to pose.... will it work?

In a very humble but slightly cunning way, I'd like to say no. Lets look into a scenario yea, even if the amendments that the Bersih organizers are crying for would pass in the Dewan Negara. By right of public opinion, our elections would be truly free and fair, am I right? Think again.

There are several ways to manipulate the system, and the biggest and easiest way to do so. Is with some paper with a Sultan's face on it. Everything starts with big people having a lot of money and will end with these big people stop using money for leverage. and where did this money come from? The banks of course, and banks will work on the principle of certainty. If they are certain a particular party is good enough to hold on to their interest and manage their investments, then said party will gain a certain leverage.

Having read that even though Ambiga had dispersed the crowd much earlier, the rally was hijacked by PR men. These people are smart, they want this to happen to Bersih, the tears gas, the violence. Because when this happens, it creates an uncertainty of trust from the banks to the ruling govt. Most probably giving the other party a chance to gain leverage.

I know this is all just a conspiracy theory, but hey, its logical in every sense.

Till next time :P

ps: We had a dream, We chased our dreams, We lost each other
