2008 - Year of Change

"I cannot say whether things will get better if we CHANGE. What I say is they must CHANGE if they are to get better." - George C. Lichtenberg

2008 - Year of Change for Malaysia. I think either you like or dislike to change, you may not disagree that 2008 is the Year of Change for Malaysia, especially in our political arena.

In fact, Gerakan is the ONLY one party in the BN ruling government who realised the needs for change looking at the current political situations. They avoid to use "Change" as the slogan and use "Reinventing" which bring the meaning the change for the government to face the new challenge. Unfortunately, it is been too late and the People has lost confidence for this 39 years old party to continue to rule.

DAP was more direct as the "Change" was always their unchanged slogan. And this time, with Uncle Kit and Karpal Singh slowly hiding behind the new group of young and fresh new comers led by LGE, the "Change" appeared to be more appropriate, acceptable & hopeful. This time, people of Penang finally decided to give them a try. Many of them simply felt that, " Nothing will be worse than now, so, why not we change?".

PKR was the one who benefited the most from the "Change". With "Harapan Baru for Malaysia", PKR fully utilise the sense of "change" of people to gain the reborn of the party and became the biggest Opponent Party, and nearly took over the government.

BN, or more precisely the UMNO, MCA and MIC were the most no sense & no sensitivity to the wave of change. With the slogan of "Selamat, Aman & Makmur", the people of Malaysia felt that they want to bring back to the old days. Insensitive, arrogant, ignorance, greedy, take for granted, etc made them became blind & deaf to the surrounding, resulting the biggest lost in the political history.
