This just echoes what I wrote [ "my take of the 2001 elections"] the day after the elections---Yahya and his cohorts are on a man hunt and will try to brutalise all those that openly supported the Alliance---it ain't over yet..we just have to pray for the best..This guy is a psycho period!! As for Tombong, I am so disgusted with him--If you knew Tombong during high school, it would be hard to believe that it's the same Tombong we are dealing with---He has totally changed--FOR what? Totally beyond my comprehension......I do not even take him seriously anymore---his garbage will be treated as such---TRASH CAN. Yeah that's write, delete and get to the next one. Ngai.
