UiTM Sabah student Representative election had passed about two weeks ago.I had already done an analysis on the election. there are several change that occurs during the election that is the student not represent their course anymore but they will compete and represent their faculty. I thinks the changes that occurs during the election as its own good and bad. as we all know, everything we done will have dual effect that is good and bad. the good thing that I can see from the change that had been made by the main campus is by change that the student will represent their faculty, the competition will become more strong and tight. This because when I was in the other campus of UiTM, I saw that most of the student who was named as the candidate won the election without any challenge from the others. other than that, the good thing about the change is the number of member in student Representative will become smaller and this will help them to move and doing their job efficiently because there was lack of people inside the organisation. On the other hands, I'm also concern about the bad about the change that had been made by the authority in UiTM. when the number of candidate had increased, the risk or probability of result of the election became draw is high. for example, in my faculty of Public and Administration and policy studies there are 10 candidate who will compete against each other in the election. So, we can assume that the percentage of the draw condition may occurs will increasing.Not only that, the bad thinks that I can see is it will be unfair for the faculty with less number of program under it. we can see if the faculty have lots of number of program under it, there will be no problem on it but it will become a bog problem for the faculty will only one or two program under it.

on the meeting with the voters or called as 'Rapat Umum', the candidate had one last chance to campaign on the election. on the stage they will given the time to express what are their principle and what they will do if they won the election. As usual, I analyzing the manifesto which had been expressed by the candidate and what can I analyst on it is most of the candidate (not all) don't express their stand in specific ways. Most of them are expressing their stand in general issue and not the specific one. Most of them mention about what is the important of being united among all the student of UiTM. I'm agreed with the opinion that had been expressed but the question is how can we unite all the student to become one? I think one of the reason why the authority set the new law of the candidate will represent their faculty is to unite all of the student under the same faculty. I thinks it's essential for the student to unite under one ideology. this because the student need to know the importance to unite among each other. in the rapat umum also i found out that there are some of candidate was not prepared well maybe its was his/her first time stands on the stage. we can't blame him but I think we have to encourage him to become brave to face the public. Some of them even not serious in expressing their stands on the issue that they want to fight for. most of the student came up with almost the same manifesto that is will doing their best if they win the election. It's good to be simple, but if it was too simple, the public or the voters will see that the candidate was not serious in expressing their stand. Hence, they will think how would this kind of person will fight for their right if he win the election? I'm not bashing anyone but this is my opinion. Then as time flew, the candidate's manifesto had become almost the same, the voters will get bored and they will thinks about one thing. The candidate only want to become popular only. This had been said by one of my friend when I asks him about what he thinks about the election. He said that " the candidate only seek for popularity only and they will not care about us." Either his opinion is true or not, we will see.

On the election day, I was woke up late because my class only start at 10am that morning. when I arrive at the spot for student to throw out their vote, I saw there was a lot of student that was claiming their right as voter. Look like the rapat umum which had been held on the night before election had succeed in changing most of their minds about the candidate that they will vote for. This is a good improvement as students start realizing about their responsibility to choose their leader who will represent them and send what they want to the authority.On the evening the result had been announced and the structure of organisation of the new student Representative counsel will be announced soon..

All in all,the election had runs smoothly without any chaos just like the one which was happen in student Representative election in the others university. the candidate who had win the election will carried lots of heavy responsibilities that I can listed as follows:most of the student don't realize what's the role played by the mpp in the campus. so its the mpp responsibilities to explain to them what are their importance and role that they can play to help them. This because the student don't see whats the role played by the mpp so they will have negative perspective on them. hence, the other task that the mpp should done is to clean up these negative perspective that had being had been accused toward them. Other than that, the mpp have to become more friendly with the student who had vote for them in the election. the mpp can always be by the students side and hear their voice, listen to what they complaint and then send it to the authority for further action. Therefore, for the new mpp what can i say is all of you are the leader for us so show the followers that u are able to lead us to the better ways.
