The above is the link to my other blog...in friendster. Not that I blog very often, but there are some of my opinion which I like to share. In a way it does reflect myself and my belief and principle.
The election fever is in the air now. Alhough the campaign for the 12th Malaysian General Election is very much the same as it was in the 11th and before, the BN has utilised all venue and channels to advertise and persuade voters to vote for them. To the extent, they have passed the verdict that only they have the knowledge to run the country. It is implied becoz they have ruled Malaysia for the last 51 years, in fact it is only them who ruled Malaysia. Thus, basically Malaysia has never changed.
A wise man said, "You would not know your ability until it is tested" and a Malay proverb said " Manakan dapat sagunya kalau tidak dipecah ruyungnya" (something like that). Thus, how could you passed the verdict if it was never tested In fact, I guess Kelantan is administered peacefully for the last 18 years although with a lot of disturbances from the BN Federal Government.
From my humble and limited view, the Federal BN govt has adopted many administration policy introduced by Kelantan Pas govt such as 5 working days for the govt servants, pajak gadai Islam (ar rahni), intrduction of khairat to ease the burden for the elderly, encouragement for Islamic practice and movement towards 90 days maternity leave, to name afew. BN with its huge fund availability has the advantage of unlimited monetary resources. The effect of ruling the country for more than 50 years has ensure their activity shall be smoothly financed, I guess as proverb says " you rub my back, i rub your back".
Although, I hate the idea of 'taking turn rubbing the back' method is being used in administrating the country, the majority of the people seems to like the idea. I guess they want to join the rubbing match and compete to be the winner. And even though, the BN is proudly showing off their material mercu tanda in KL and other places as the economic triumph to win the election, I still believe economic index is not the most important factor in running a country. As I believe that our existence is to serve Allah swt., thus all aspect in administering the country should be due to Him, i.e. do what He ask to do and do not do anything He prohibits, and it should not be "it is only business (where profitability in dollars and sen is the deciding factor), nothing personal" attitude. In a society, the personal factors contributes to the social behaviour and security and safety of the community.
Me.. I do not mind living modestly as long as it is safe, peaceful, happy and most importantly Islamically friendly. Who shall I vote? Mereka yang menegakkan hukum Allah swt... whoever he/ she may be. If BN or other party declared they shall tegakkan hukum Allah sebagaimana ditegaskan dalam Alquraan (dan hadis/sunnah) if in power and can convince me that they shall keep their words with their power, I will be very happy to vote for them. Otherwise, I need to prepare myself for prevention against the Allah's anger hd He asked me why I chose a leader not following His order. After all, my existence and everything I have is due to His blessings. Therefore, should't I make Him happy? Guess I should. How about you?
