Klikek…the Ugly Truth?

9 01 2010

The Key of my mind... by ul_Marga.

It took me a while to figure this out, but I got the hint on the first day I stepped into Junior College. Klikek.

Are those chosen to represent a party necessarily the best group of representatives?
Is the respective party’s executive the best choice the party could make?
Or is it a case of the party choosing those poeple just because they make up a so-called “klikka” who happen to be die-hard blues or reds?

Let’s face it, gathering 7 candidates from a school of around 300 students is not such a big deal. Furthermore, having 4 out of 7 candidates who do not really know what they’re on about is shameful.
This reflects what basis the candidates are chosen on, and admittedly I am not well informed about how this selection is carried out, however as an observer I can honestly say that this selection always includes the same group of people, who coincidentally, or not, happen to be friends of some KSU executives or candidates, or once again, die-hard blues or reds.
Friends don’t make good candidates. Being a die hard blue doesnt make you a good leader. Year after year I say this. Candidates are not chosen on the right basis. Want a good candidate? look for him, probably he’s not knocking on your office door because he’s wise enough to know that he’s got no place in closed circle.

Good candidates keep contact with the students all year round. It’s truly ridiculous that students like me are only approached by party representatives during election week.

I don’t feel like you make a diffrence, and that’s sad. The only difference you make is the loud noise in the pjazza that distracts students from their lessons, occasional games in the foyer ( as if that’s what the students need ), and the fashion disasters which seem to come around during election week.

This is the ugly truth. klikek. There are better candidates guys, you haven’t given them the chance. You’re too busy hanging out with your own close group of friends that it’s almost sad that you represent a party.

The problem is that this happens in both parties, so you’ve really got to choose the best of two evils, but sadly I came to the conclusion that a no-vote is a vote in this case, because there is a choice, and it’s being overlooked.

I will not vote for that sort of klikka again. I’ve done it twice, and regretted it every time. If I want to vote for a klikka I’ll join xi kumitat tal-banda, not for a council supposedly  representing students. How can you say you represent me if you’re throwing eggs at me? How can you represent me if you don’t even know what I wish for???
