This book is a new edition of March 8: The Day Malaysia Woke Up, partly to document what has transpired since that historic day when Malaysians voted for change, and partly to keep the March 8 spirit alive. This book, like the first, is dedicated to the Malaysian public. They were the ones who voted for change on March 8 and showed that the voice of the people must be respected and heard. As such, interspersed throughout the book are comments solicited from a variety of Malaysians expressing their wishes for real change. I am grateful to all those who responded and freely gave their comments. -- Kee Thuan Chye --
