The political shenanigans that we experienced in Perak after GE12, in Sabah during GE14, and in previous elections held in Sabah since 1967 make one wonder if we should even bother holding general elections in this country.

The political shenanigans that we experienced in Perak after GE12, in Sabah during GE14, and in previous elections held in Sabah since 1967 make one wonder if we should even bother holding general elections in this country.

Catchphrases such as “every vote counts” or “you can make a difference” are drummed up to such a crescendo that you start to believe that power lies in the hands of the common man. Sadly, it is no more than a figment of imagination, shoved down the throats of the voting public.

But when the dust settles, you wake up to reality. It was no more than a pipe dream because the very people you put your hopes and trust in betray this divine trust by frogging over to the other side.

Unfortunately, such opportunists have now found new ways and means of achieving their objectives via clever use of the courts.

You no longer need to go back to the state assembly to decide who should or shouldn’t be the chief minister or menteri besar.
