Political maturity, sooner or later

This is stupid,

BN wants to defend all traditional seats, says Annuar Musa

How many BN's traditional seats are there for it to defend after the GE14 defeat, anyway?

How about its Perikatan Nasional ally Pribumi Bersatu then? Where should they contest in GE15? Chinese majority areas?

This Annuar Musa is simply talking without thinking properly.

He's the kind of Umno politician who make people don't like that party.

Because of Kelantan Umno leaders like him, BN was never able to capture that state through the decades.

Why they made him BN sec-gen is beyond me.

Whenever I came across statements by Umno leaders like Annuar Musa, I felt discouraged to write in support of BN, even though I know the other side is a worse option.

And there's a lot of such statements from such useless Umno leaders these days because the party is back in power.

All want to remain relevant and jump back onboard the gravy train.

Real bastards.

Make me so fed up.

Well, that's why I have not been writing much.

Seriously, I hardly pay much attention to politics these past weeks.

I didn't even bother myself about the Chini by-election.

In fact, I'm writing this post while sitting on a bench waiting for someone.

Just killing time.

Surfed for news and saw that stupid Annuar Musa's statement and decided to comment a bit about the stupidity.

Well, I talked with some friends and they said they felt the same about politics these days.

Really, it's not just me.

I know, the political show will go on, but I think it's just going to be a tiresome show.

Well, maybe it's a sign that Malaysians are becoming more matured and don't care much about all the bullshit.

Maybe even the kampung folks feel the same.

After all, we don't really need the politicians except for them to serve us and run the government.

If they do their job FOR US properly, we keep them. Otherwise we just kick them out and replace them with another bunch who may do a better job.

The days of politicians being revered by the people are probably in the past.

They serve us and not us serving them.

They also can't con us with their talks anymore.

Yeah, I like the idea of that.

I already told some of my Umno friends that they shouldn't think they can get all the Malay votes by just talking about Malay unity and such.

Malays also want a good and clean government.

They don't want corrupt or stupid leaders too.

That's why they are willing to vote for a good Chinese guy over a Malay in overwhelming number such as in the Tanjung Piai by-election.

Really.

Well, some are still not so smart yet, but I think they will become smart too sooner or later.

Pakatan talks a lot and the people gave them the chance in GE14, but they screwed it up.

Now its the Perikatan Nasional's turn.

Some of them thought they can just sell the Melayu propaganda stuff to win the next election, but I think the people will punish them for that.

The Malays are not a bunch of stupid irrational racists.

I know, I know....DAP managed to do that to get the Chinese to unite behind them using such a trick.

But Malays are not Chinese. They have a different mentality.

Consider this - It's easier for a good Chinese candidate to win in a Malay majority constituency than a good Malay candidate to win in a Chinese majority constituency.

That's a fact, okay.

Even DAP people know that.

If you don't believe me, go and study the campaign and result of the Teluk Intan by-election or the fight for Gelang Patah in GE13.

I can list a whole bunch of similar evidence, but I'm too lazy to do that.

Well, that's my thought for politics this morning.

Yeah, I know, it's just another rambling of mine.

Okay lah, I need to go now.

Cheers.
