Kai Inn, the poem that u quoted....seems very much like the teaching of Budhism...seems like the life what a monk suppose to lead...when a person shouldn't lead a life base on their possessions, but rather on what they can do to make the world a better place for others... lets hope that there'l b more people out there that can ignore their differences in wealth,health,religion,country,.... and strengthen their common ideal for a better world..

As for election, i think it will b held before certain person will be eligible to stand as a candidate, no matter what the other person said to the contrary... may the best people and representatives win, there's already too many idiotic and wasfeful reps out there that its a miracle M'sia still can churn out all those outstanding economic and social results..imagine what will happen if all our leaders is as effective as those over the strait down below..M'sia will become developed much much earlier already..
