It has been a month since my last ranting. The political situation in Malaysia seems topsy-turvy as usual. Last week we had the shock, maybe an expected shock that one of the vice-presidents of the ruling party had been suspended from the party because of money politics. Corruption.
When did this start. I'm certain this malice did not happen overnight. All guilty parties, and I'm sure they know who they are, must have started on their career paths quite early in their careers. Maybe some of them started in with noble intentions but was waylaid along the way by the glitter of material gains.
That pull factor is very strong and needs a similarly strong personality to withstand the continous onslought to reap benefits from their exalted position. How many can muster the courage. We're only human as most people would say. A convenient excuse.
I wonder how long our Prime Minister will be able to hold to his ideals. I'm sure there are lots of supporters who have gained tremendously from their positions throughout the years. How will they cope with a new regime. What is certain is that they would not give up without a fight. There is a long way before any semblance of normality and decency comes back as a winner in society. The ideals of a pure Man is still a hazy dream. We can only hope.
