LAMENTS of a DESPAIRING Nation from malaysiakini

malaysiakini was founded on the basis of telling the news like it is, not like what the government wants you to hear.
Although many newspapers also cover stories that are not too flattering, they do know how to toe the approved bias.
So if you want to hear what most ordinary folks are saying, the letters and feed-back from malaysiakini articles are a good source.
Today's feed-back from malaysiakini reflects the tone and sombre mood of the dejected voters who are seeing the 'Checks, balances have clearly failed' .
The main cause is that the Executive have become too powerful and is now controlling all the other levers of government; thereby imposing a major threat to democracy and the rule of law in Malaysia.
We are becoming a dictatorship within the nice cloak of democracy.
