Congrats President Elect Obama, Congrats America.

November 05, 2008

I lived to see history made. And history was made on my 26th birthday (or the eve of it depending on your time zone).

To think that there was racial segregation in the States during the 50's and to having a African American President Elect in 2008 is just unbelievable. I almost mumble to my friends this is stuff of political thrillers 10 years ago. The West Wing only dared going as far as a Latino President. From what I see from the news and reports, President Elect Obama is just what America and the world needs in these troubled times.

Democracy is still alive and kickin' in America. There's a lot a certain Boleh-land can learn in this aspect.

This heralds a new dawn for America, and if you may, the World.

I've tried to voice it to my friends because my sister is currently living in Bangkok and has seen how badly Asia has wanted this change for us... but I think your blog summed it up with it's final quote. Thank you.
