YouTube. That’s what they have in common, according to this blog, created in the run up to the March 8 Malaysian general election campaign.
Maimum Yusof, the spunky 89-year-old grandma who became the oldest candidate to contest in the election, needs no introduction in Malaysia. She lost in the election, though; but she has won many hearts with her determination in achieving her aspiration to become a candidate in an election after a series of four unsuccessful attempts in the past 20 years or so.
So, getting herself as a candidate in the election is already a success, irrespective of the result.
Meanwhile, from half way around the globe, I’m following the progress of the US Presidential Election with great interest. If I was an American, I’d be a democrat so it has to be either Obama or Hillary, though my vote would go to Obama.
For me though, the choice is either one of them; not both. As an outsider, I don’t quite see the point in going for a Obama-Hillary joint ticket, because there should not be two lions ruling the same mountain, so says Confucius.
