Fair enough, opposition parties will take a long time to reverse unnecessary budgets placed on unnecessary projects; projects which i do not need to mention, *cough* istana *cough*. at the end of the day, we do not know how opposition will fare and whether or not their perceptions and ideologies are merely empty words. Still, at the current state we are in, this country is going to the dogs, i tell you. It happened to Phillipines during the 70's and look where they are now, it'll happen to us too. there is this strange and classic scenario, where people constantly ridicule BN, vote for them anyway, and give the excuse that the “OPPOSTION ARE NOT READY OR RICH ENOUGH TO PROPAGATE THE COUNTRY’S DEVELOPMENT”. in this case, it is clear that the basis of politics is misconstrued. at the end of the day, minus all that “shady business” the enlightened citizens know of, and tags like “satu lagi projek Barisan Nasional”, we have to understand that the development of a nation depends on the TAXPAYERS’ money. that is the basis of it.
