“The people we vote for are supposed to serve the ‘rakyat’. They are supposed to bow down to the needs of the people, because we are the ones who put them there. That is the whole point of a democratic system. But I don’t see that in either sides, whether its the Government or the Opposition. They seem to be in politics to serve their own needs.
Until I see a leader from either side that has the people’s best interest at heart, I refuse to participate in this so-called democracy.”
