What a rollercoaster ride it has been! We’re sure the past 48+ hours have been one of the craziest that Malaysians have felt. Here are some of the best reactions we found on the internet that really shows how we all felt during the 14th General Election.
1. When you can’t vote but you want to join the inked finger trend on social media:
2. Or when you’re overseas and can’t get your finger inked – so you’ve gotta improvise:
3. When you’re trying to dance to ‘That’s What I Like’ but the results are not what you like:
4. When it was almost midnight yet only a handful number of seats were officially announced:
5. After numerous press conferences the SPR people started cracking jokes when really inside they must have felt like this:
6. And when the results FINALLY came in and it was announced that Tun M would be our 7th PM:
7. Malaysians feeling the unity in voting together for a change:
8. Watching Tun M talking eloquently at his press conference at 2.30AM and meanwhile you’re half asleep:
9. When the elections results made you feel like you could accomplish anything. Straight A’s this semester? No problem.
10. And of course, everyone celebrating our first ever female DPM:
11. And when even though the results were out, we still did not have a new government or PM yet:
12. And although you were exhausted, you can’t imagine how those working in journalism and media must be feeling:
“ thank you to all the members of the media for serving everyone so promptly and staying on till the announcement “

13. And finally despite all the GE14 craziness – one thing will always remain: Malaysians will never disappoint when it comes to memes.
9th May 2018: We watched history unfold right before our eyes as one nation stood together in hopes of changing the country for the better. Malaysia Boleh!
