After a very eventful year, we are only days away from 2004. The Star took to the streets and spoke to Malaysians from various walks of life on their hopes, aspirations and resolutions for next year. We will be carrying their views from today until the first day of the New Year. TEH ENG HOCK, FLORENCE A. SAMY and CHRISTINE LIEW report:  

AFTER a year filled with war and terrorism, it is not surprising that most people wished for harmony and tranquillity in the new year but many also saw the need to improve themselves personally and expressed hope for great things under Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
