I teach physics by day and masquerade as a wannabe social scientist by night. My main interest is to observe the democratic dilemma (how can stupid people elect a smart government?) in action in a multicultural setting (why should my people elect your people into government?). I believe that Malaysia has much to teach the world; the only question is whether they will learn to follow our example or avoid it. But change will happen, and we must take ownership of it - or perish.
