COMMENT | Merdeka means liberation

COMMENT | This Merdeka day every concerned citizen at home and abroad may want to spend a moment of silence in thinking about their nation's sorry state and commit to change the status quo.

It is time to unburden the nation from the yoke of corrupt politicians. The political war is clearly the classic story between good and evil.

Pledge not to support or vote for a politician who is corrupt. Spread the word and save the country from thieving scoundrels who masquerade as politicians.

There is no Merdeka when corruption ruins the country. Why remove foreign colonisers only to have them replaced by local ones? That is not the idea of Merdeka.

Is the game up for the politicians lost in a free fall into a moral abyss and unable to correct its downward spiral?

Will it soon be game over for those who are self-vested...
