I just read the-star online and here is the result for the elction:
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has
won the Permatang Pauh by-election !
He won Arif Shah by exceeding almost half of the vote.
Here is quote from The Star:
Anwar garnered 31,195 votes to beat Barisan candidate Datuk Arif Shah Omar Shah, who polled 15,524 votes, while Angkatan Keadilan Insan Malaysia candidate Hanafi Hamat lost his RM15,000 deposit after getting only 92 votes.
This election is the most happening event for our country in this month, or this year, or even the entire election history in Malaysia.
There will be another 'Politic Tsunami' awaiting the government of Malaysia ahead.
Personally, I supported Anwar for this election.
BN need some pressure from other party only they will do their job better.
Actually this is a simple theory, when
there is a competition, there is improvement.And
us, the resident of Malaysia will get the final benefit.
Here is one example that we get the benefits from competition: That is the competition between Digi, Maxis, Celcom and recently the latest cellphone service provider, U Mobile.
As they are competing to get more customer, they will lower their charge rate for the usage of our cellphone. At last, we get cheaper call and sms. Haha~!
So, can't always let BN win. Instead, we should sort of like 'balance up' their power and let them compete with each other for the best of ourselves.
This is because when a party is too strong, they tend to corrupt.
This happened during the dynasties of China, the dynasty falls during their peak due to the corruption of the leaders of the country.
And Malaysian had successfully 'weaken' the power of BN during the recent 308 election.
Still, these are just my little thought for this election, which I am quite happy with the result.
Hope Anwar will really work out what he promised to us before the election and put the benefit of residents of Malaysia as his utmost priority.
All the best to Anwar!

The Next most happening event to the world is the recent Olympic game which is held successfully in Beijing, China.
China Rocks~! This is what I want to say to my origin country.
They did great, excellent, awesome, impressive, beautiful (any praising word) job for this Olympic.
They not just organize the Olympic successfully but also become the top country in the rank of medalist for the very first time.
Even though their total medal is 10 less than the total medal US but they are still the FIRST.
They got 51 gold medals which exceed America's 36 golds by 15! A big gap.
Many foreigner who had had bad impression toward China before the Olympic now totally change their point of view towards China after the Olympic.
There is one quite funny thing I came across in the newspaper during the Olympic, that is the foreigner, especially those from Europe were wonder what is the English word for 'jia you'. They felt that the word 'jia you' is so good that it can be used no matter one win or lost. Therefore, they want a english word for 'jia you' but the Chinese failed to find a suitable english word for them as translation like ''go, go, go!'' or ''come on'' are not as convenient to be used as 'jia you', which is short and sweet. Haha! And so they also give them the direct literal translation, which is 'add oil'! haha... No matter how, the word 'jia you' had become a famous word among the European.
That's all. All the best to China!
China jia you!
Malaysia jia you!
Zheng Yii jia you!
And to all of my friends: Jia You!! = )
