The People have Spoken

What a night its turning out to be....I started the day very apprehensive and uncertain, I have stated before that we Malaysians are a very forgiving lot, how wrong I have turned out to be. I spent the evening in an opposition operations room in the Klang Valley, the mood was initially tense but as results from each stream started trickling in a victory seemed certain and everyone was ecstatic and just screaming their lungs out. Then it became apparent that certain big guns like Samy Vellu were well on their way out the crowd just went bonkers. The crowd was swelling by the minute and no one was in the mood to go home anytime soon. We only dispersed when the candidate had left to get the official results at the main polling centre and rumours were going about concerning some scuffles breaking about in certain areas.

Penang and Kedah have fallen, Kelantan is still under PAS and Perak and Selangor are potentially falling into opposition hands, to me thats awesome news and the tide is finally turning against the dastardly BN regime. We have made great gains this time around and maybe next time we'll be in a better position to form the next federal government.
