"We are worried about 'the cow' when it is all about the
'Ice Cream. 'The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching
year 3 students. The last Parliamentary election was heating up and some of the
children showed an interest. I decided we would have an election for a class
captain. We would choose our nominees. They would make a campaign speech and
the class would vote. To simplify the process, candidates were nominated by
other class members. We discussed what kinds of characteristics these students
should have. We got many nominations and from those, Mat and Salleh were picked
to run for the top spot.
The class had done a great job in their selections. Both candidates were good kids.
I thought Mat might have an advantage because he got lots of parental support.
I had never seen Salleh's parents.
The day arrived when they were to make their speeches.
Mat went first.
He had specific ideas about how to make our class a better place.
He ended by promising to do his very best.
Everyone applauded and he sat down.
Now is was Salleh's turn to speak.
His speech was concise. He said, "If you will vote for me, I will give you ice cream." He sat down.
The class went wild. "Yes! Yes! We want ice cream."
He surely would say more. He did not have to.
A discussion followed. How did he plan to pay for the ice cream? He wasn't sure. But no one pursued that question. They took him at his word.
Would his parents buy it or would the class pay for it...He didn't know.
The class really didn't care. All they were thinking about was ice cream...
Mat was forgotten. Salleh won by a landslide.
Every time Najib and later Mooheedin opened their mouth they offered ice cream and many Malaysian voters reacted like nine year old's.
They wanted ice cream.
The rest of the voters knew they were going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess."
This is the ice cream Najib and BN promised us!
Remember, the government cannot give anything to anyone that they have not first taken away from someone else.
How many of us voted for the ice cream?
That my friend, is how labour got elected last time!

By those who wanted everything free.
Let’s hope it doesn’t happen again
