Countdown

It looks set to be a long and exciting night for those watching the results of the General Election in Malaysia. I reckon the Missus is likely to be one of them, although she has said she might just wait until morning to find out who's going to be in charge for the next few years in the country of which she is a citizen.

I just feel privileged to be around to witness events in this part of the world. I've seen considerable changes in a number of nations in the region in the last twenty-five years, most being for the better, I reckon. But the only real judges can be those who really live here. And no one's ever come up with a better place to judge than the ballot box, says this believer in democracy.
