It
has been awhile since I last wrote an article. Typical life messes had limited
my time in doing one of the things that I enjoy doing the most, writing. Of
course, I’ll always try my best to express my words on paper whenever I can.
The elections are coming soon here in Malaysia. It is said that the poling day
would be on the 5th of May. Rumors are that the current ruling government is
going down for sure this time and it is quite apparent that the government
itself knows it too. They seemed desperate, trying all sorts of tactics to win
the hearts of the people. The heat is up, flags from all parties are erected
everywhere, and the politicians are at war once again.

The
problem with Lynas had been ongoing for quite a long time and the march of many
angry citizens never did bring much attention towards the issue. The government
just couldn’t care less. Now that the elections are near, they are suddenly
interested in the matter. The opposition had been trying their best to use this
issue to their advantage. I came upon a post from facebook that was very interesting,
it’s some sort of a question. It goes like this, “Australia is 23.3 times
bigger than Malaysia and yet there aren’t any spaces to dispose of the waste
materials?”

No
doubt that the people of Kuantan who are all fired up will definitely cast
their votes in favor of the opposition candidates who have pledged to shut down
the processing plant. Residents are outraged because of the poor water pressure
during peak hours and sometimes water supplies are cut off without a proper announcement.
Does BN think the people of Kuantan stupid? Aren’t there any efforts put into
this by the government to get in some votes from the people? Well even if they
did, it wouldn’t make much difference anyway. They were doomed from the start when
they agreed to allow Lynas to build that pollution machine on our homeland.
They knew those votes, those that they thought will always remain theirs, will
be lost once Lynas starts construction, and they did it anyway.
So
what do we do when the government does this? We try to make a change. How do we
make a change? We do our part to stop the ones who started destroying our home.
We stop the government. If you love the environment, I say we vote for the opposition.
Clean up or go home Lynas!
