Predictions for Malaysia's 13th General Election (GE13) - what does it mean for us all?


Before I begin, I would like to forewarn you that this may seem like a GE13 reporting. But it is not. I have my reasons.

So let's begin:

Malaysians will be voting for their next government in the next few days. Though the official start of campaigning was on nomination day, the country has been on virtual campaigning mode since 2008. At one side, we have the incumbent Barisan Nasional which have ruled for 56 years. The new-kids-on-the-block (I couldn't resist) Pakatan Rakyat is set to deliver their most serious challenge to the ruling coalition. For 12 General Elections, the BN govt has used creative (but questionable if not outright illegal) means to ensure their continued control of Govt. And they easily do that because they have always controlled two-thirds majority in Parliament. Whenever the opposition gains ground, they gerrymander the electoral borders in order to favour them the next round. This time it is different. For the first time in Malaysian history, the BN lost its two-thirds majority in Parliament. And with it all the old tricks. So now, they resort to other not so effective means by utilizing the Main-Stream Media (MSM), cash-handouts (which is really bribery) and rumoured (but confirmed by Sabah RCI) Project-IC tactics. The Home Minister has also, a few years before, encouraged UMNO to rope in the Mat-Rempits (“criminal” biker gangs). The former PM Tun Dr Mahathir has even flagged off 3,000 Mat Rempits at a PERKASA (ultra-racist organization worse than Pauline Hanson in Australia) event.

In light of all these and other blatant abuse of power, it is a wonder if they can even fool the public anymore and retain power. It is quite obvious from the opposition’s political ceramahs that the tide has indeed turned. However, the opposition are up against the entire government machinery that has been soooo conditioned to believe that the BN=Govt and Govt=BN. Any threat by the opposition is a threat to Govt. This versus the actual practice of democracy which is Govt is formed by the political party that wins the general election and that the Civil Service is independent of influence from the political party. While the actual polling day is on 5th May 2013, astrologers and fengshui experts have already come out with their predictions and they don’t bode well for the opposition.

Renowned Fengshui expert, Dr David Koh has not only predicted that BN will win, he has even gone further by saying the BN would re-capture Selangor and Kedah. Now this brings up the million dollar question. If the public is truly sick of the ruling coalition, then why on earth would they still vote the BN back into power and to rub salt into the wounds, return 2 states back to the BN? Yes.. there is the Law of Attraction i.e. if you hate the BN so much, you are actually giving it more energy and thus helping the BN win because they are getting all the energy. Hey... why else do you think MSM only portrays BN in a good light? Opposition media that portrays BN in a bad light also do not help because they are still giving energy to the BN. Energy, whether positive or negative, is still energy. And the party that gets the most, would most likely win.

But what I would really want to get at is this.

Yes, the charts (Astrology and Fengshui) may favour the BN for obvious reasons like BN’s massive funds and the groundwork done (legal or illegal is immaterial here). It is not rocket science here. However, nothing is cast in stone. There is always the People’s Will and Divine Will.

Like all predictions, if a prediction is a good one, we would like to keep it. If a prediction is a bad one, then it only means something needs to be done in order to change the frequency or energy vibrations in order to bring forth a different outcome. Think back to the Lord of the Rings trilogy (or books). In Lothlorien, the Mirror of Galadriel showed Frodo what the future held for all of middle earth if he were to fail in his mission. And what the mirror showed was the most likely outcome but hope remained. Well, we all know what happened towards the end of the Return of The King.

Hence similarly here, it means if we do not like the predictions given by the fengshui and astrology experts, something needs to shift. The question is, are we shifting and if we are, are we shifting enough?

The answer will be known on 6th May 2013.

But whatever the result, the old energies are being phased out and the new ones flowing in (and past the mid point in 21 Dec 2012) will not sustain the old way of doing things.

May the blessings of the Divine be upon us all.
