In the wake of the second round of Afghanistan's presidential election, amateur film ‎maker Teck Young Wee who works for the non-governmental organisation, Our ‎Journey to Smile, interviewed young people from Bamiyan.‎
The video shows Mohammad Azam, Immaddudin and Abdul Ali. ‎

Abdul Ali is one of a group of young people currently keeping vigil in Bamiyan Peace Park ‎in the hope that their message of peace will be acknowledged by US President and 2009 ‎Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Barack Obama. ‎

Text of Beware, Afghanistan is redefining democracy

Interviewee : Mohammad Azam

Me : In the recent presidential election, there was widespread fraud. How do you feel about ‎it?‎

Azam : It makes us feel tired.‎

Interviewee : Immaddudin

Immaddudin : We feel uneasy and strange about it. Although it is the 2nd time weve had ‎elections after 30 years of war, we still have such fraud. Its such a pity!‎

Interviewee : Abdul Ali

Me : Ali, if you had a friend in school who from his childhood, had been cheating and been ‎deceitful, do you think he can be corrected in 2 weeks?‎

Ali : No, he cannot be corrected of his deceitfulness in 2 weeks.‎
‎ ‎
Me : What is democracy?‎

Ali : Wa-allah ( Oh God ), this I dont understand.‎
