I just couldnt suppress the goosebumps when results of opposition doing well started trickling in at around 7pm. Was out having dinner with my parents and nearby was a BN election centre. Walking in we saw gloomy faces and utterence of "ga liao dou!!" by the BN supporters. Hope of change was evident... little did we know this would be a political tsunami.
Went back home and switched on the TV. Results there were horrendously slow, and analysis were still biased towards the MSM. So went online. Thank god for Malaysiakini. Jaw dropped when saw DAP sweeping Penang. More surprises as Kedah fell, then shockingly Selangor and Perak as well!!
Now I wanted to make sure that BN loses its 2/3 majority. Unofficially it has been announced it will be so. But I had to make sure. Stayed up till 4am, till cannot tahan went to sleep. Next morning woke up and log on, and saw it confirmed.
The morning couldn't have been prettier in Penang that day.
So where were the rest of you last night? Do share your thoughts.
