Contradictheory: Are we ready for a new approach to governing?


It's a new dawn, it seems. It has been about a couple of weeks since I did my duty as a citizen, dipped my finger in the ink, and made a cross on the ballot paper. And, forgive me people, my adrenaline is still running high.

It wasn’t just me, of course. Looking at the steady stream of election news on Twitter, occasionally kicked on by the afternoon press conferences, it has indeed been a fine time to feel Malaysian. Except, instead of gossiping at the mamak shop, the whole thing has gone 24/7 on to social media.
