The Malaysian 12th General Elections = 1969 General Elections ?

At 2.20am, Barisan Nasional formed its government with simple majority win over the seats in the Parliament. BN also lost 4 of its states to the opposition parties. This shows that the citizens want a reform to the Malaysia ways of ruling. They want a more sounding politicians to represent the voices of the people. In my states, Malacca, hot seats like Bachang, Bandar Hilir, Kesidang, Ayer Keroh and Kota Laksamana fell to the Democratic Action Party(DAP). More significantly, DAP managed to win back Kota Melaka which BN took over for the very first time in the last . In this election, veterans like Samy Vellu and Sharizat lost their seats too. What's wrong with Pak Lah's administration? While I don't see it a problem where many matters have showed it's transparencies and improvements, others may felt that his administrations did not suit the business sector where growth is in the slow pace. Oh well, these are all people's behavior and observations. They have the rights to the government they desired. In anyway, I wish it is a good start with more transparencies in the politic, as well as the economic growth and we will see more arguments in the parliament.
