holy **** it's happening, CVII winners
congrats belfong, sleepy, rotciveel, nubb, pesky, and btc!
WAIT, what ?
check the CVII thread, he's actually started to go through the days where he didn't pick winners.
OMG.. this was what I wrote in CVII thread in
26 March 2016.
1. The one thing I have waited for years, not just 2-3 years, is for the change of our current corrupt Prime Minister, who is truly sucking the country dry. Under his rules, the economy tanked. Crime rates soared. There's an huge brain drain where people are leaving the country. He raised taxes despite all of this and inflation tripled!
He was recently reported in accepting donation of US$700M from some Saudi Prince (yeah, right!) into his own account (reported by WSJ) but because he owned the judicial and police force, nobody can touch him.
2. I would work additional (3000-5000) hours as part of the opposition team to rally the people to stand up against him. Sadly though, the hold he had on manly states which are ruled by his own crony, is just too strong.
3. Nothing is impossible. We have seen the corrupted leaders in Indonesia being overthrown and recently the PM of Thailand was exiled. So, there's still hope! People's Power!!!!
Edit to put number to paraphrase my thoughts above. No other edits. Edits are allowed, right?
Never, in the life of me, that I thought we could change our government who reigned over us for the past 60 years! 60 years under the same government and yet, in 9 May 2018, we successfully overthrown and put in the opposition party as government for the first time!!!!
Wow ! What a sweet, sweet thing for the country.. and of course, if I win a CC, that's great too!!!
