Election '08 : Live from Terengganu - The Journey

Well, not quite live, but close enough I guess.

We had an interesting journey. In fact to my mind, the journey itself was as important as the destination. We were heartened by what we saw on the way to Dungun. We still have hope, I think, irrespective of the result come Sunday morning.

These are what we (the kids and I) saw this day 7th March 2008 - the day before the election '08.

These two big bikers saw us with a similar flag when they overtook us at the Karak highway and gave us the hands-up as an acknowledgment. That was the spirit during the journey as quite a number of cars with BA flags wave us as they overtook us. I was taking it easy with the accelerator.

Unfortunately, Maxis Mobile is so slow here in Kerteh that I am unable to upload all the interesting pics that we took during the journey and of course all the 'funny' and not-so funny banners in Kerteh. I had a chat at the PAS post in DUN Kemasik, a constituency that was in the realm of UMNO even when PAS ruled Tranung Kite, and apparently the workers there are confident that the ground swell this time around is bigger for them to take over DUN Kemasik.

The long queue to exit the East Coast Hiway at Jabor. Luckily we have a touch-n-go that was on sale during the last Raya, so it was a breeze for us. Phew!


Someone would have to climb to plant this bendera at this bukit in Geliga Kemaman
