New Malaysia! My Experience During Malaysia 14th General Election 2018


I am going to begin with my journey back to my hometown the night before election day. I took a night express coach back to Penang on 8th of May at 1030pm from Hentian Duta. Usually the journey would take about 5 hours to reach Penang Island but that day there was massive jam because a lot of people were going back to vote. Guess what… I reached Sungai Nibong Bus Station around 530am. Omg… 7 hours journey, anyway when I reached Penang I so ber-semangat.

 I started to queue at 7am... kiasu or not??? 

My dad was waiting for me at the bus station since 5am. I went back took a quick shower, changed and we went out for breakfast before heading to our voting location. The kiasu sunshine was at SMK Kong Min 2 (Paya Terubung) at 7am, initially I thought I would be the first few but when I reach there wah! the queue already started.

Glad that everything went smoothly that day. I completed mine around 845am and walked out of the school feeling so proud that I did my part for the country. Then I went home rest for a while and decided to head over to the bus station to try my luck if I can catch an earlier bus back to KL.

So co-incident I met Pamela, we were on the same coach back to KL

Great! I managed to get the 11am coach back to KL on the same day. I reached KL at around 4pm. I rushed home, packed and head over to the airport because we took a midnight flight Perth on that day. A few days before the election, we decided to go to Perth for a short vacation after the election, it’s quite rush for me huh.

Waiting for my flight to Perth, my eyes are glued to my laptop consistently following the GE14 results

The first thing when I arrived Perth Airport I need wifi! I am glad that I had Roaming Man pocket wifi with me. Omg… I got the best news ever! Yes PH wins, we Malaysians did it! I cried… I don’t know how to explain that feeling. Its happy tears. Well, during my whole trip I keep checking Malaysia news, there were some dramas and hiccups. I actually stayed up quite late on the 10th to go through each and every of my whatsapp message, websites, facebook and etc. Never in my life I felt so kan cheong (excited) for my country, which was a good sign.

Rejoiced! This shot was taken at London Court Street n Perth CBD on the 1st evening I arrived Perth
