Aduhai Asian Politics.......

First and foremost don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to be political here. It's just today... history is repeating itself. Guess what? i've got a 36 for my Asian Politics mid term test. Now, ain't that a refreshing perspective. To tell you the truth, I am clueless when it comes to politics. I cannot understand why politics needs to implemented in our course of study. In Publishing?! At first I thought that it was a far fetched idea teaching politics to publishing students

I've been asking myself for many years what is politics and why do i have to understand it. Forgive me for my rebellious disposition regarding politics. I for once was totally against politics to its violent and constant personal bickering nature. I mean, seriously people! How can you rule a country if you keep digging up the other candidate's personal flaws. I wouldn't vote for a leader or a representative who has a terrible personality such as that. That was the reason why i hated politics so much at first. But the moment I held my mid term paper and analyse the marks given to me by my lecturer and compare my answers with some of the top scorers. Btw congratulations to Yana, Waheeda and Intan Safura for your outstanding performance. Listneing to their answers masyaAllah, I finally understand the reason why i must understand politics. Politics is not just just about ruling the country. It is also about the society within a particular governance. Its the relationship between the government and the people. And we as media practitioners or communicators must be fair and truthful in our conduct.

As a publisher or an editor I am oblige socially to respect the law and at the same time stay truthful to my social obligation. There is so much more to learn about politics. And with that, I conclude my post for the time being. Assalamualaikum and toodles
