Marketing 101-13 Today, I want to touch on the Malaysia politic in particular. We have witnessed the creation or rather the forming of a new government which is unprecedented in the history of Malaysia political scenario. Even though the players (the political figures; for e.g. Dr.Mahathir) are familiar faces, but the manner in which the election was won was actually more than the “Malay Tsunami” but “Rakyat Tsunami”. The historical dates which has paved the way for political changes in Philippine i.e. May 9, 2016 was held on Monday, which was the 16th presidential election there since 1935. The election was won by Rodrigo Duterte, taking over from Benigno Aquino III. In the South Korea ‘s Presidential election, 2017, also on May ,9th in which Moon Jae-in of the Democratic Party of Korea won the race with a 41.08% votes. Moon Jae-in 17.1% margin of winning is the largest percentage margin for any liberal candidate since the inauguration of free and fair direct elections in 1987. What is the significance of the finding, it shows there is a pattern, or is it a coincidence? Bearing in mind, patterns and orders are the structures of the Universe. As there are physical law that governs the Universe, like the law of gravity, there is also spiritual law that governs the spiritual universe; for example; obeying the authority (Father) in the family. Thus, if we break the law, we have to pay the price for it. We can see from history, nothing is permanent. The only constant about change is, change itself. The fall of President Ferdinand Emmanual Marcos who was a kleptocrat( which literary means “thief” ; is a government with corrupt leaders) , ruling from 1965 to 1986 who was overthrown in 1986 alleged of mass cheating, political turmoil and human rights abuses. Likewise, the then Muhammad Suharto who was an Indonesian military leader and politician seems invincibility was ousted in May, 1998 after ruling for 31 years. He was the second President of Indonesia. This happened after a severe economic and political crisis in the previous 12 months. In 1997 and 1998, there were riots in various parts of Indonesia. Back in Malaysia, it was a spectacular election turn around liken to a battle between David and Goliath. It was the greatest triumph of the Dr. Mahathir‘s new ruling government because of not even a single blood was shed! To quote Wan Azizah, “Divine interventions are everywhere”. I believe it was because of a few factors listed below:
He said, “I am not a Chinese but a Malaysian!” Yes, we are all Malaysian; we want to say that this is our “Tanah Airku yang saya cintai”. A new beginning, a new chapter, a fresh hope and a gigantic steps forward….
