the historic September 16th!

I am anxiously waiting for September 16th to come :)

I suppose the day will be rather ordinary (and by ordinary I mean, it stand to reason that if you think someone is guilty before this date, u will still think he is guilty) for individuals- like you and I, but for the country and its political institution- this day will be remembered like the day Kemal Ataturk established the Republic of Turkey and liberated the country through the political, legal, cultural, social and economic reforms that were implemented to transform the Republic of Turkey into a modern, secular nation-state; or September 16th will be remembered like the time when Karl Marx said: You can buy any car of any color as long as its black.

No, Karl Marx did not say that. It was a joke widely known in those days to describe the dictatorship practiced by him. Gotcha.

Truthfully I do not know what will happen on September 16th. Rumor has it our country will have a new Prime Minister. That I'd like to see...

On a personal level, I'd say that this day will highlight that tyranny will never prevail, and that real leadership qualities defeat leaders who inherit their position from their old man. Heheh.

To September 16th! C(T)H(a)E(k)E(b)R(i)S(r)!!

Muna said...

you Can really buy those people, cant u..??

I mean, if u take me to paradise pun, I'd come back and stick to my stand to exercise party hopping.

if loyalty is measured like that, the world might just be a better place to live in.

no wonder people are so pissed at people like u and i. we make things complicated by having firm standings.

rakakaka...

firm? isnt party hopping a very obvious sign of gullibility? if they were 'firm' wouldnt they already be where you want them to be in the first place?

Muna said...

there are 2 kinds of people in this world:

1. those who know exactly which party they want to be in, no matter who is in power.
2. those who belong to a certain party depending on who is in power.

they might not agree with the new ruler, but they find the need to be with the one in power.

what (or Who) are we afraid of, really..?

WonderMama said...

i think i ni yang the second type. sebab i sokong ferrari since raikkonen join team tu from maclaren :p

i love raikkonen forever... ;p~

huhu. xde kaitan

Anonymous said...

That didnt answer my question =P~

Muna said...

ainsafian:
tapi kalau raikkonen finish 2nd or last, u still sokong ferrari kan..? =p

vertigo:
party hopping can be perceived as gullibility given the circumstances that the act of hopping is made based on groundless and ill mannered persuasion.

party hopping in our given circumstances is far from being initiated by being in the state of gullibility as it is made voluntarily as opposed to being bribed with a trip to Taiwan, and most importantly based on transparency of facts, speech and action.

10 years ago, these party hoppers were in fact firm and was in the right party led by the right leaders.

they are still firm and hence the need to hop because their leader has gone to form a new path.

It is noteworthy that in essence, it is not party hopping that reflects gullibility, bcos if we were to look at it that way, not wanting to hop and staying put could also be comprehended as being fleeceable.

have i answered u now? =p

Anonymous said...

no, no. what i'm saying is, why hop After they have won their place in the government? why not be 'firm' and do it Before the very recent election? I'm sure they have seen whats coming before that and would have known what to do then, but why now? why only after the people have voted their place? dont they have any respect for the votes they have earned?

Muna said...

sebab, these ppl fall into the 2nd category of people as defined above.

no they do not care about you. they only care about themselves. only anwar cares about u. okay, thats what i've been trying to tell people.

arghhhhhhhh
