What the heck is happening to my beloved home state of Perak recently ? I mean, it is so darn unnecessary with all these political bickering, started off with the argument why a PAS rep would be holding the MB post, and then, our DAP friend (LKS) made an abrupt turn and apologized within a few hours ! Following that, the PKR dudes were thinking of pulling out from the Perak state admin altogether, because apparently there was some 'mis'communication that there would be no representation from PKR among the 10 executive council posts. Oh my gosh, these politicians are so childish, well, from the $standpoint$, I understand though :-) And, of course, the latest ruckus was the cancellation of the 'swearing in' of the new PAS MB. Guess there will be more 'drama' to follow today, so, check out Malaysiakini lah.

Hey guys, we voted you for the sake of not only, requesting for more transparency and equality, but, most important of all, to maintain peace and harmony, esp. in the Perak state where I intend to retire in (provided no option for me to emigrate later :-) ). It will indeed be very sad, if something untoward happens, just because of these recent political hoo-hahs, as we have just barely done with the celebration of the Opposition taking over the state of Perak less than a week ago. Anyway, like I told my friends, Perak just a sleepy state now (compared to its neighbors in the north and south), post glorious tin-mine era, with a pretty modern but kinda short runway airport (one or two flights per day, from God knows where) that no one seems to bother to fix (hope the newly elected government will do something about it), and a big military port in Lumut. So, it is not surprising that no MNCs bother to set-up factories in this Silver State ! The transportation logistics is just terribly inadequate.
Well, I will wait and see how much better that the new State government can do to help wake up this sleepy state the next few years, else if not, like they say, "If we can vote you in, we can also vote you out !". Makkal Sakthi !
