Does Malaysia have hope?

“Hope springs eternal”. I was taught that it is human nature to always find fresh cause for optimism. I suppose this is what Alexander Pope meant when he wrote this line.

For all of us, our lives have been built on hope. But earlier this year, a Harvard poll of young Americans showed that 51% of the respondents said they feel down, depressed or hopeless.

It would be interesting to see what the poll would show if it was conducted in Malaysia, now.

People like to feel optimistic about and in control of where their life is headed. But with this coronavirus pandemic and its seemingly never-ending variants, the future feels difficult and uncertain, and few of us have much control over it, beyond doing our best to keep ourselves and those around us safe.
