Malaysia's 13th General Election! Hot Stuff in 2012

hi Folks,

Oh yes in less 3 days, we will be welcoming a brand new year, 2012...

A year that some say will be really happening.  Hopefully it will not get to the majorly 'catastrophic' scale like what was shown on the Hollywood blockbuster, 2012.

Whatever it is especially in Malaysia, the 13th General Election may take place, but again it is really up to the man in charge of the country, PM Najib.

With the possible 13th General Election, it will be the first time that the indelible ink will be introduced so when a voter votes, then his/her finger will be 'inked'.  Frankly, I hate it.  Why?  It is so backward or 'Third World', but again as explained this measure is to counter against possible voting fraud or double voting or the infamous 'phantom voter'.

No doubt, it will be a big battle between the incumbent government of PM Najib (Barisan Nasional) versus Anwar Ibrahim (Pakatan Rakyat).

It will be a very closely watched event since Barisan Nasional (BN - current ruling party) will try to obtain the 2/3 majority in the parliament which they failed to achieve in the 12th General Election back in 2008.  Not only that BN would also target to get back the states that have currently under Pakatan Rakyat which is Selangor, Penang, Kedah, and Kelantan.

If u haven't register as a voter, go and register now.  To register, well the procedures and process can be found in the Election Commission website (www. spr.gov.my).



For the time being, let us enjoy the rest of 2011 which is just 3 more days and get ready for the new 2012.

Cheerios!
