MY VOICE 我的心声

Finally, I have made up my mind to open this blog to the public. The blog is named after the number of posts written through my hands. As I mentioned earlier in the first post entitled 'FOREWORD' , the blog was created after the Malaysian 12th General Elections in 2008. Since there were no new posts to be written last year due to time factor, many political news were not updated until this year. Currently, this blog reviews English, Chinese and Malay articles. However, this particular post is written in two languages to mark the opening of the blog, which voices out all different views of Malaysians in regards to the Malaysian politics.

After witnessing the great change in our country's political status, we are looking for a better improvement in our government. However, the effect of the tsunami has not come to an end. Many issues arise unexpectedly, not only in the Barisan National, but also in the new Pakatan Rakyat. As Malaysian, I am sad to see that our country has improved tremendously in terms of political stability, human rights, freedom of speech and crime rates. As a part of Chinese community, I am regret to see that our only Chinese-based political party in the ruling BN government, the MCA is still having internal warfare, which involves the leaders who are competing in gaining power, support and influence to achieve personal interest, instead of fighting for the future of Malaysian Chinese. As a student, I hope that with the presence of this blog, young readers will be able to understand more about the importance of politics in a country, for it does not only concern us, but it also affects our future generation. Let us have this hope that one day Malaysia will definitely be a better place for our children, and our children's children.

That is my voice.

终于，我下定决心将此部落格公开。此部落格的名取自于借着我手所写的文章的数目。正如我早前在序言所提到，此部落格是在2008年的马来西亚第十二届全国大选后设立的。因时间的缘故，我在去年完全没有在此记录与更新许多的政治新闻，直到今年才有跟进一些时事论坛。目前，此部落格有英文，中文及马来文文章。然而，此文是用双语书写，意表此部落格的开放，人民对马来西亚政治的不同声音也得以传达。

在见证了我国政局的改变后，大家都期望政府会有正面的进步。可是，海啸所产生的后果似乎还没平息下来。无论是在国阵还是民联，都掀起了许多意想不到的事。身为大马人，我为国家在政局的稳定、人权、言论自由和罪案率的不断改善而感到悲哀。身为华社的一份子，我为国阵政府唯一的华基政党因内乱不断而觉得心痛。领袖们不为大马华人的前途奋斗，反而为自个儿的利益不停地争权夺利。身为学生，我希望借此部落格，年轻读者能体会政治对国家的重要性。因它不单与我们息息相关，也影响我们将来的下一代。让我们抱着这个希望，盼望总有一天马来西亚对我们而言肯定会是一个更美好的地方，不仅是我们，还有我们的子子孙孙。

这是我的心声。
