The Big Picture

FOR most of us, this is the only land we have. We were born here and will most probably be buried here. We belong here and that MyKad identity document we carry in our wallets and handbags wherever we go is testament to that fact.
 That card, though not any larger than the credit or the various discount cards we carry with us, signifies our rights to everything the nation has to offer, including in determining its future. We should all take our ownership of this land and its future seriously.

Elections

Eventually, I will have to write about this. Yes, that special day when we all will choose the government who will govern us and the nation for the next term of mandate.
 I'm not new to general elections. In fact I have always been interested in it since I was a child. But somehow, since I joined the Press fraternity some 23 years ago, I have avoided writing too much about it in the newspaper I work for. I have my own reasons for that, and I wouldn't want to discuss about them here.
