Concern about Politics?

I have a friend… asked me why I so concern about politics; why I keep on posting things on Facebook. (actually I use mobile twitter to tweet what ever my thought and feel, at the same time, the twitter linked to Facebook. Therefore you see me updating Facebook all the while. The fact is I don’t hang on Facebook too much).

Ok, let’s be clear. I am not concerning about politics. I don’t like to ‘campur tangan’ in politics.

My concern is about my own life. My own future. (Please, people are selfish. I can’t say I concern about you and your future because it sound so fake).

We are living in a country that political influence so strong that almost everything in our daily life can be linked to politic.

So called government linked company came as results of privatization: highway, utility, telco, sewage management etc. That are all companies that is operated by political cronies. Whether the government manage it well or not, affect our daily life. And who is the government? The politicians elected by people. By us.

So is that important for us to concern about politics?

Ok, another thing. Education. All this while it’s very political in setting up education policies. Why Chinese and Tamil primary school can’t get the status as Sekolah Kebangsaan? Why it is so called Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan?

Why GCE certification is being accepted and accredited by so many countries out there but not the home country? Isn’t it so obvious that the decision is more political than based on education sense? Can we not concern about politics to find a way out?

Day in day out we suffer things as consequence of bad government. Who the government is? The people that elected by us through a political process. Can you not concern who to be elected for the coming election? If not now, when are we going to concern about politic? If not us, who are we want to rely on to change our own country, the place we stay for life?
