All political parties should take note that there are Malaysians who are fed up with what is happening in the country. Angry, to see what should have been done correctly was done wrongly. What people in the kampong thought should be the honest way? Turned out not to be so. Villagers are the conscience of the nation. They make their decision based on traditions, centuries old. What is commonly called the wisdom of the ages?
When villagers say that this is wrong? We should take notice. Because they are looking at issues with unclouded eyes. Or rather with innocence. Again being innocent is being truthful. So tons of legal arguments cannot hide the truth. The truth will stand out. Sometimes we have to accept that truth can cause the downfall of a person. But what is that, compare to the condemnation and curses thrown to the individual concerned.
It's strange, humans respect those who surrendered and gave way to the truth.Probably because this is a sign of intergrity. A sign of courage, a sign of being principled. And afterall, it's not the end of the line. The man who uphold the truth even when he lost, will have another chance to win the support of the people and to win his cause.
Politicians must remember that to accept the truth is a virtue. But to reject what is true and continue to fight is a stigma. It will make people lost confidence in the leadership of that person. So never fight truth, it will kill the individual politically even when it appears that he has won his case legally.
