The Malays

Assalamualaikum

in the name of Allah the Most Gracious the Most Merciful

I think it has to be re-made public that political awareness among the Malays in this country isn't that good.

Statistically proven in GE 2008 that the percentage of Malay voters turning out to cast their votes is lower than the Chinese.

Surprisingly, the Malays have the highest number of MPs in the Parliament.

Moving into modern society, this awareness that politics is an important aspect of our lives is undeniably important. I'm pretty sure politics exist everywhere, from your home to your office.

Some say politics is dirty, hence the ignorance. I beg to differ. Politics consisted of men and systems, and it's the former that gives b to the latter.

It is not about being fanatic to your label of preference, but one has to understand that 1 vote is important in shaping the future of our country.

To translate this into simple words, the Malays and all Malaysians should first and foremost, register themselves with Election Commissions. Make your voices heard.

Fence sitters are for those with no knowledge, no principals and low intergrity. Whoever your choice is, it is important. Never it is as important as casting your votes, really.

I have registered with EC a few months ago. Have you?

till next time,
assalamualaikum
