I feel like singing “Heal our Land” after reading this excellent post.

Adino: Thanks

“The change” will take sometime “to mature”, we hope and pray for the best, time for new beginning…

Adino: Yes, I agree.

This is a nice website to start exploring about ‘race’:

I’m glad you’re interested.

Adino: Thanks.

And Rachel…that is why daddy stayed put in Malaysia and did not migrate elsewhere

Adino: It’s still too early to confirm or deny that

No the concept of races predates that. It is something that will never be totally resolved. It is the fact that were different colors that makes life beautiful. Each depicting something unique of the divine.

We can erase the stigma and biasness and so on but we cannot ever erase the fact of who we are and what race we are from. To erase that will only destroy who God made us.

That is my personal belief.

I voted..the change was not done by us…I am praying God will take control and use this to work something for the country I love.

Adino: I believe that we are watching something very special happening, and this is all part of God’s plan.

Yeah… I’ve read about May 13th and met one person involved in that D-Day. But are we really hoping for change…? Or are we hoping for what ‘change’ might being?

Good luck for the familial future, little Rachel.

Adino: I’m hoping for both… that there will be a positive change.

Sometimes, some of us due to some reason mark the wrong boxes
And we intend to erase it

It is not done purely as a conspiracy

Adino: I see. I just hope it’s not abused, thats all.

Hope for the best for Malaysia.

(By the way, not only “race doesn’t matter”, ‘race’ does NOT exist, because this kind of ideology was only created 400 years ago – and that is what I learned from my recent classes – remember that)

Adino: Ooh, I’m interested to learn more about the history of this ideology. Any references for me to look up?

i am wondering abt the one that at first lost by 140 votes…but then after re-count he won..but i forgotten the number of votes he won with..hhmmppphhh~~

Adino: Everyone is wondering, but until there is evidence to prove otherwise, I guess we must accept the decision. His opponent Chegubard is challenging the results though. Let’s wait and see how the courts decide before commenting.

Yeah, I had the same question. I suppose it is to help UMNO win some by the eraser (in addition to phantom voters, dead man walking voters, postal votes)

Adino: I actually brought a pen with me. I didn’t dare to ask if I was allowed to use my pen. I didn’t want to risk spoiling my vote.

Now that you mention it, yaloh… how come the ballot slips were marked with pencil wan? Hmm… a bit fishy… but all was good in the end anyways, so I won’t complain.

Adino: Those who voted before tell me that this is the standard practice.
