Today was supposed to have been a good day.
Where we were supposed to go to the doctor, have my monthly scan, and maybe find out Fighter’s sex.
Fighter is a boy!
For some reason we’d already thought Fighter would be a boy; I had a strong feeling he would be! Maybe because I actually really wanted our first child to be a boy (so he can take care of his sister next time wtf) and I projected haha.
During our last visit, the doctor already suspected it but now it’s confirmed! Saw his penis and everything wtf.
So it should have been a fantastic day. But instead from morning to night we’ve been inundated with horrible horrible reports of the latest efforts from the ruling coalition to cheat themselves back into power.
The worst of it is the news (and photo evidence) of orders from the PM’s department to fly foreign workers and immigrants to selected areas to vote, basically drown out our votes to win the seats. Here’s the report and evidence.
When you think it cannot get any worse, here’s another punch in the gut wtf.
My father in law forwarded this letter. Mind you, this could be hearsay but I think we’ve all seen enough pictures and videos of bribery and coercion happening especially in Penang this past week to know it’s most likely true.
Dear Penang Lang,
I am a Malaysian who was born in Penang, who moved to Selangor to make a
living . I am writing this because I love Malaysia, and I love Penang even more.
And I love and respect Lim Guan Eng not because he is good looking, BUT
because He gives us HOPE, he gives us back what we have lost in the last 50
over years. He let us see what is not possible in the last 50 years is possible now
under his short 5 years rule.I heard about a disturbing news from a family member from Penang this
morning about Lim Guan Eng constituency, Ayer Puteh is under severe attack. A
businessman/developer Goh Choon Lye together with a few are throwing money
to people in that area. He has openly announced today that EVERYONE gets
RM100/per person; resident of Ayer Puteh gets RM500/per person , and if you
unseat LGE , everyone will get rm1500.00. In addition, he will build some 2200
units of value of RM75000/-, 50% cheaper than market price for Ayer Puteh.For those Ayer Puteh residents who are thinking of receiving the RM1500/- and
RM 75000/- per unit, please ask yourself the following question:1. is Goh choon lye and others business men?
2. Will a businessman do a loosing money business?
3. Will you think there is always a CATCH if someone selling you something
cheap, and below cost? What is the CATCH? Like Chinese saying : never
will there be such a big FROG jumping around” After all these goodies,
who will benefit more, you or Goh Choon Lye? THINK HARDER AND FAR.
4. Do you think your children’ future, your children’ children future worth
only rm75000.00?
5. if you have taken 75000.00 house, you may probably make a 100k profit,
but do you realize you will end up paying higher petro price, higher toll,
higher car price, higher education etc , you end up paying back more and
more to the people who gave you money now..
6. will 2200 units help everyone in Ayer Putih? And whole Penang? Your
future?The future of Penang is in your hand, please do not sell it over a mere
goodies . You are betting on your children and grandchildren’s future.
Please do not give it away simply. Do not let the $$$ blind your conscious.If Goh Choon Lye is a genuine philanthropist, he would have done it long
ago and all the while, WHY ONLY NOW? WHY ONLY IN AYER PUTIH?
WHY DOSE HE WANT LIM GUAN ENG TO LOOSE? HASN’T LIM GUAN ENG
PROVEN HIMSELF OF THE GOOD GOVENANCE?
For a businessman like him, he must have known that he will have a
BIGGER gain in future to give a little money now. Please do not be a FOOL
to enrich yourself temporary now, and to have the future of the mass in
Penang suffer. Your action now will only make the cronies richer and
more powerful.Ask yourself why are all these money and goodies only given NOW, why
not the last 50 years?Do the right thing for the future of your next and next generation.

Aud! don’t give up hope! We can change it!! :’)
Aww…don’t give up just yet! belum sampai saat terakhir, jangan berputus asa! i’ve sure justice will prevail! on another note…congratulations audrey!!! can’t wait for you to share your journey through pregnancy and motherhood with us. Take care! =)
Hi Aud! I’m malaysian, but I grew up in Brunei..and now living in Australia. I have no idea who is who in this voting chaos.. and I don’t know if I can vote as well.. all I know is… I hope Malaysia becomes a better place, and that I can come home for good one day.. so don’t give up!
Dear Aud (and every one else) nnPlease don’t be disheartened by what’s going on. Things are rough and the ugly sides of both parties in Malaysia have been disgustingly revealed since the announcement of the GE, but always remember that it’s always the darkest before dawn. Let us remind ourselves of the many battles that have been fought hard in the past and victory has always belong to the ones who are righteous with the people and with God. Here’s a link to a song which I hope can cheer you up a little. nnhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=PTLwzuQuRsw#!nnCan’t wait to hear more about Fighter (and how u combat stretch marks!) Woot!
My aunty who lives in penang also texted us telling us my grandaunty told her the same thing! Apparently some people told my grandaunty if they voted for bn they will get rm1000.00 wtf
Don’t give up Audrey!!!! Have faith! We will have a better Malaysia starting from today!! UBAH INI KALILAH!
true! i’m an expat here in penang. saw how openly they do the bribery (in public market).
Change? Change to another Crook? The System is broken. It is filled with a party system where crooks can hide behind and manipulate from. And please, LGE is another crook, research more and don’t praise blindly, The biggest land deal in the state government history, Bayan Mutiara. The bunch of Gerakan statement government, albeit being part of BN were not as corrupted as the current one. Look for more information about DAP like the insider for example, read CAP’s open letter to LGE. A little knowledge is indeed a very dangerous thing and you’re helping to peddle another political party. There is no change. That’s just a catch phrase.
erm.. for the comment above mine.. I just wanted to know that are you suggesting we should retain the current government?
In the midst of all the tension, this lighthearted video might ease your mood a little. Hopefully. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151420002833660
Goh Choon Lye’s face looks like an asshole. Pardon my language.
Hello. U went to do the botox for your jaw reduction right? how long does it last and did u do filler for chin?
lololol
lasts for about 6 months. no chin fillers!
you’re an idiot. it’s not about another political party. it’s about a TWO PARTY SYSTEM. i dunno why it’s so difficult for people like you to understand. there is no 100% clean government in the world, the best we can hope for is a government who knows how to be scared of the people. and implementing an effective two party system is a way to achieve that. do YOUR research and don’t talk blindly either.
very hard to get his picture ah. mind to share this fella’s face?
google oso only come out his good friends here and there
