Mission for a Change - New Malaysia

Living abroad is an eye-opener for me. When I met other foreigner and asked me where I am from, I will always be wanted to be proudly mentioning that I am from Malaysia due to its fast development, iconic buildings and it's leadership. But since the 1MDB issue has caught the attention of many around the world, I felt embarrassed and always hope there would be no more question about the origin of my country.  Nevertheless, 9 May 2018 has given a hope to many Malaysian that there would be a change in Malaysia's governance. I was also surprised that majority of my fellow friends here in Saigon which the majority are Chinese were really into a spirit to make a change to Malaysia's governance. Many of us we encouraging each other to go back to vote and make a change. And most of us were decided to go back to cast our vote on 9 May 2018. 
9 May 2018 was a historical date for a new Malaysia where Malaysia now is governed by a new government under Pakatan Harapan and the most historical point was when Tun Mahathir was elected and announced as the 7th Prime Minister of Malaysia. He is the key to the glory and the key factor that had pulled the vote of all Malaysians who hungered for a change. I believed without Tun's charisma and capability, other parties would not be able to pull the vote, not even DSAI. Tun Mahathir is the factor that Malaysian united. Malaysians owed him for the sacrifice that he did to save Malaysia from drowning in many economic issues and scandals created by the previous leadership.
Syukur, now Malaysia is in a good leadership and new government that hopefully clean from the corruption issue. I pray that Tun Mahathir and his team would be able to gain continuous support from the rakyat of Malaysia and deliver what they had planned to clean all the mess done by the previous leadership while continually improving and developing Malaysia for a better Malaysia.
