Election for the new B.O.D

Form 6 is special in every way.

Well, the uniforms we wear are special, the subjects we take are special, our shoes are special especially, and not to forget the way we choose our new B.O.D is also extremely special. For we did not elect the new B.O.D by using the usual method most of the clubs and societies did. We did something exactly like our country's elecion- Pilihan Raya.

We printed papers with names of the candidates who are going for different posts and every student from form six has to cast their votes by marking "X" beside the name whom they support.

On that very day, approximately 90 students from both upper and lower sixes casted their votes. The classroom where the election was held was extremely packed and crowded.

Queuing up for registration.

This is where we put our paper after voting.

erm. she's demo-ing the right way.

It took around one and a half hour for everyone to finish voting. So, the '08/'09 board stayed back to count the votes.

Still unfolding..

Counting.

Well, the election could be said to be quite successful but still not good enough. For we did not follow the way the real "Pilihan Raya" was supposed to be. For example, voters aren't supposed to discuss among themselves who to vote for. Plus, not every student from form six was there to cast their votes. It was a disappointment to see only half of the upper sixers who were supposed to be seniors to the juniors already and still did not present for the election to cast their votes/cooperate/play their role.

Regardless of what it is, thank you to those of you who voted and helped out to make this happen.
