after D day...


The next day was also an off day for me….I woke up early and started to read whatever that had left out. It was a relief when I learnt that there was no curfew nor any bleeding event had taken place.
I saw the clip of Dr M in his residence preparing to head for the palace. It had been a harsh night for him, staying up late and managing the taking over. I prayed for him hoping that nothing would happen to him during the process. Everything had gone smoothly, I had witnessed the swearing in later over the net.
During my breakfast with Xian, I had updated what had happened and I could tell from his look that he was actually confused about why I was so excited about…
I lived in a hybrid community; my neighbors were Indian and Malay. The politicians had created an issue regarding difference of races. We were being taught that 3 major races should live in harmony however there was something regarding rights, economy inferiority that was being stressed from time to time. I belong to the group which has economical advantage; but in fact, my family was not doing well then; thence I was not eligible to any government aid….
I hate those racist remarks made by those political opportunists. As the opposition grew stronger since the last two GE, racist remarks were more harsh than ever and I feared that one of those days, we might be marginalized and eventually lost everything. After years of living abroad, I had never forgotten the land where my blood spilled and never have a single thought of giving up my nationality.
Will there be any changes, I doubt it, however deeply in my heart , I knew if the PH had lost, we would be in deep sxxt but fortunately…. 
2 days later, when I met my fellow Malaysian colleague at work, we did not have any deep chat regarding the changes but yet an exchange of smile was something good enough to celebrate the victory.....
