This year’s Deepavali celebration was a little quiet for me. I called up a few friends to gather at a friend’s open house but most of them were out of town. In the end, there were only two of us visiting. Less people means more food to eat

We spent over two hours there — eating and talking. My friend bought a dog for his parents to look after the house. I think it is only four months old. So, the parents are probably doing the looking after, for now.

Anyway, we chatted for a bit and the million dollar question popped up out of the blue — “Have you registered?”

The two of them were like, “Hell ya… You bet! I am not going to allow… I will make sure…”. They went on and on but I was like, “Errr…not yet”. Let’s not talk about me and concentrate on what they have to say, shall we?

I was actually quite surprised that they had the same views on most of the things that I have been reading on “alternative news” sites like Malaysiakini. They talked about who they would vote for in the coming election. I can’t help but to wonder, does it even matter? I just read the article on “Mystery voters” and remembered some “ghost voters” reported some time ago.

To me, politics (no matter who are the ones on top) is a “dirty game”. It is all about power, money and corruption. The question isn’t whether they are corrupt but how corrupt they are.
