PKR :Change before you have to!

STEADYAKU47

Anwar, change before you must! You were a visionary once. Reformasi and Pakatan Rakyat. Two intangibles , two ideas whose time had come but it was you that brought those ideas into fruition. For that our people are grateful. But even a grateful nation does not have long memories. Mudah lupa. The Pakatan Rakyat you brought into being is only as good as its next task. And its next task is to form government. Fail to do this and all that you have achieved so far in your life is consigned to a footnote in the history books that our children will read!

The times that we now live in moves forward at such a rapid pace that we sometimes see our present only as it is already disappearing. Even as try to comprehend the enormity of Pakatan Rakyat’s success in the 12th general election we are already into the 13th general election. The only constant is change.

If you're in a bad situation, don't worry it'll change. If you're in a good situation, don't worry it'll change. (John A. Simone, Sr)

And for Anwar the situation now is not good. What will it take for it to change?

But how has it come to this again? Why are we waiting to see if Anwar will again be incarcerated? Is it UMNO? They said it was Mahathir before, today is it Najib? I do not have answers to that question. Only Anwar knows the truth.

The reality id that we are now faced with fighting for political change through a political process that is flawed and much inclined towards the incumbent. And the incumbent is further advantaged by a host of legal and illegal maneuvers aided by an abundance of corruption and a determination to hold on to power at all costs – a combination that has seen UMNO hold on to power for over 50 years.

There is no fair mechanism for power change in Malaysia. With Anwar we had hoped that whatever ‘fairness’ missing from the political process in Malaysia would at least be turfed down to a somewhat level playing field. It would seem that this is not to be in the 13th general election. Pakatan Rakyat is in the fight for their lives, for our lives –and Anwar or no Anwar we are locked in with Pakatan Rakyat in this fight with UMNO and BarisanNasional.

We know that it is not the business of UMNO to make it any easier for Pakatan Rakyat to succeed in the 13thUMNO, for Najib, to prosecute Anwar again. Has he not gone through enough? general election. But in all decency I cannot understand the need for

Am I angry? More sad then angry. But there is enough anger within me to stir my very soul to fight with PakatanRakyat against Barisan Nasional. Enough anger within me to work tirelessly to oust Barisian Nasional from government.
