Somehow I feel that he emphasizing reason no.2 of why I would not vote for legislative election this year. Although he did not clearly mentioned that he also share my perspective on being non-voter this year, like he said
"Don't get me wrong, I am serious about my civic responsibility and never miss voting in elections, even when I was studying abroad. I have every interest in exercising my rights and ensuring the next government is competent and responsive to people's needs"Thus, in this matter I assumed he will vote and he know for sure who is that candidate. Right, my friend?
On the other hand, at the end of his article he suggest "Use the money well, introduce us to the candidates". However, I believe with such a tight schedule (read: not enough time available), the candidates will race with every possible way to make sure that we - the voter - to vote them no matter how well we know them. What I mean is their main objective now it to get as many vote as possible. After that, who cares...
Anyway, Berly indeed wrote a very good opinion in this article. Bravo!
