时光交错的隧道

如果回忆有颜色的话,我想它是淡蓝色的。像淡蓝色的恬静海面,悠悠的海浪声轻轻地说着过去的心情;像淡蓝色的天空,白云偶尔化成雨滴,让过去的心痛都一点一滴地流逝。。。回忆真美。

我是懒惰虫。。。哈哈

今天是NUS正式开课的第四天,我最大的感想就是。。。我的生活轻松得让我内疚!每天平均只上大约两小时的课,而且大部分是在早上10点就结束的,上完课以后可以到处溜,回房里睡个午觉,生活真是轻松自在=)看着身边一些开始感受到压力的人,让我一直怀疑自己是不是上少了什么课。。。呵呵,可是有颖芊在,怎么可能会忘了上课呢?所以我应该尽情地享受这种的得空得让人担心的生活,以准备面对下学期的忙碌!
上个星期六去参加了WCG,哈哈,果然是被欺负=p不过也算了吧,练习这么少又怎么可能有好的表现呢?Zzz...第三场我又给first blood...T.T 我真得很会"fa mang zang",完蛋了,越来越没有修养。同一天的早上是NUS Rag Day,Temasek Hall并没有成功把总冠军夺回来。。。我很内疚很内疚,我实在没有尽我的责任,如果我有下去多几十个小时的话,也许一些没有完成的部分可以做得好一些。。。对不起对不起,我连那天的Final debrief都不好意思去了,我不知道除了对不起还有什么好说的。。。唉,真的很惭愧,现在遇到senior都会由有种想跑掉的感觉,T.T我居然用这种不负责任的行为来报答他们。。。zzz
刚刚从TH Tech Crew的面试回来,大部分的成员和去面试的新人都是马来西亚人,感觉很亲切。。。哈哈,也许还可以找多几个DotA kaki=)到现在我都还没有很好很好的新加坡朋友。。。不懂为什么,始终觉得跟马来西亚人比较亲切、比较没有隔膜。希望我会在我的Chem Engineering group里找到好朋友吧。。。
去吃了一顿宵夜回来忘了原来想写些什么了,颖芊开着光良伤心的歌,我终于不再hyper了。。。今天中午跟HL聊天,刚失恋的他一再地跟我说“要开心”、“快乐是靠自己的”、“要独立”,哈哈,我早就学会了,希望他也快点不再恨不再气,别再为难自己的心情=)有时我会希望那种#%$#$%^%$的人有一天也尝尝那种伤害,跌倒深谷的那一刻,也许会懂自己曾经有多么过分。。。哈哈,朋友加油!
唉,有些东西还真是有点无奈。。。还好只是一点而已。我发誓我要活得快乐,就这么简单。
去睡觉了。

  • For those who still quote Singapore malays are victim of Singapore should feel shame.

    This is biggest joke, when Malaysia malays think that they are fighting the right for Singapore malays and use this as an excuse to fulfill their greediness. Yet Singapore malays look down at Malaysia malays. They are proud to be Singapore malays.

    Hahaha. Yes, again biggest joke is, They control almost every resources in Malaysia, and practicing daytime robbed, yet someone still quote Malaysia malays can get what they want if other race agreed.

    This is what we called, Dr Spin.

    Don't you know Umno strategy? Keep the malays forever dependent on them so that they can stay in power. There are many capable malays but they are so used to crutches that their muscle are dystrophic. It is like the doctor (no pun intended) who prescribes his patient an addictive quick fix so that they will keep coming back to him/her.

    The fact that Mahathir maybe more "modern thinking" than other malays, many may not aware, could be due to his training in Singapore!

    Malays from Singapore just far outclass the malays from Malaysia in terms of knowledge and capability. But we have this "katak bawah tempurung" who thinks "don't becoming like the malays in Singapore"!

    Friend, you are just far from them! You are just losing out! The poor deputy minister can never be as good as the Singapore malays in this life! And he never thinks to be like the Singapore malays to excel from the competition! Need to say more?

    I too was fortunate enough to have a father who was farsighted enough to send me off to Singapore to be educated, some 10 years ago. Just like him, I will also send my children to Singapore one day, as I believe that their education system is far more superior compared to Malaysia, and to prepare them to face the future challenges in this competitive world.

    It is not the race factor that makes Singapore what it is today. It is the system. Singapore is very wise and very careful never to mix religion/race with politics. Anyone irrespective of the race gets severe punishment if involved in religious or racial slur.

    Their work ethics and accountability of every civil servant and their leaderships/heads based on merit rather than skin is so glaringly obvious. In Malaysia we are exactly the opposite in almost any area one can think of.

    I really doubt many Singapore malays would like to move to Malaysia which obviously the Malaysia government would be too happy to grab them. Yet this is never an issue. It is not happening. Why?

    This same goes to the Singapore Chinese. The Chinese there are more advanced than the Chinese here in Malaysia.

    As a Chinese, I have to admit it and I really hope Chinese in Malaysia to start opening their eyes and learn the lessons to be more outward looking, improve themselves like learning more English and not dream that the next decade is easy going or get frustrated by the NEP.

    We should first start by inculcate into our children from now on these values. There will be difficult times ahead and unless Chinese they make themselves competitive now, Malaysian Chinese will fall behind and be history.

    Just like the NEP cannot bring an entire community to overcome their economic weakness overnight, so is the Chinese need to forge ahead to remain competitive cannot be achieved overnight. Start the ball rolling now.

    To this end, I ask all Chinese leaders to lead and there are opportunities beyond the shores of Malaysia. We have to help ourselves because no one will.

    If you are to make too much money in Malaysia, how the heavens can the malays catch up and give up NEP when the percentage of their economic cake will remain the same or stagnent?

    So the solution for Malaysia is to increase the malays national wealth and the non-malays to increase their wealth globally - and keep it there. Right? This is open for dispute.

    It is cool, Singapore malays achieved such feat because of the system, but the system was helped tremendously by the fact that there is no race issue.

    I have friends in Singapore who are malays and they never consider themselves as malays. They always call themselves Singaporeans, something a country like Malaysia will never be able to achieve with the malays having the ketuanan attitude.

    If only we have more people like a farsighted malay, Malaysia would be as progressive as Singapore. In fact with all our natural resources we could even be better than Singapore.

    Our government is wasting money on subsidy to the malays when it should be teaching them to be independent. That is why today we see a lot of malay children too lazy to work and spend most of their time on drugs and become mat dull.

    Slowly the Indonesians are coming over to take all their jobs and eventually they will be beggars in their own country.

    There is plenty that I do not agree with the Singaporeans, their "one party state" for example, and their serious curbs on freedom of speech. But there is also plenty that we can learn from the good points of other nations as well, may it be the US, UK, Australia, even China.

    But the underlying issue here is that a system based on mutual respect, meritocracy and equality works. Singaporeans have reach great heights in the international scene despite being very limited land, natural resource poor and limited population.

    Yet their formula is a good example of a system that works. Every person benefits if they are willing to work hard and aim high.

    Or would you rather Malaysians stay ignorant. "See no evil, say no evil, and hear no evil." Think about it……….

  • I saw the video of the ruckus in UPM and I am shocked and disgusted with the hooligans being let off with an 'advice' from UPM vice chancellor. At the very least the ring leader doing all the shoving and shouting and the other supporters should be put on record for their violent behaviour and put on notice.

    Can you imagine the bravado these people involved will be feeling now, do you ever think they have learned any lesson from this advice, the only thing possibly is next time we will push the envelope even more and see what happens.

    The education ministry is lead by loose cannons, firebrands, who twist and bend regulations to suit their whims and fancies. From the minister down, everyone and each should be put on notice that they are not suited for the jobs they are given. In any other country, this kind of wanton irresponsible behaviour would have got them the sack.

    Is it any wonder that our universities are not even listed in the 1000 in the world! The education minister is too busy politicking to give some time to his allotted duties in the ministry.

    Having said that I would urge political parties to refrain from politicizing the issue further as it would do no good - eventually it would only worsen the polarizing process now driving the races poles apart.

    What is happening in the country campuses is a mirror image of what is happening in the community at large. Much as I am disinclined to repeat the oft repeated statement, "We reap what we sow" - it is still very much so in this case.

    What do you expect from a university which is not even in the radar screen of the top 300 universities in Asia? When you have an uncivilised vice chancellor who is incapable of disciplining his students, that correctly reflects how badly our university has deteriorated.

    The acceptance of fascism among students is a reflection of the Umno acceptance of fascism itself. It is the latest proof to show how easily Umno leaders are willing to exploit their own suppose BN partners for their own personal gains.

    The same goes for those Umno Youth in Penang demanding administrative change. All these are about selfish personal gains and got not much to do with issues and it is institutionally accepted.

    A civilised person knows his/her rights end, when someone else rights begin. A civilised person does not use threat, intimidation and fear to achieve his/her goals.

    This is a case of gross lack of respect and of discipline for the rights of others. One could only blame on the leadership and environment in the university.

    The BN government again has failed to protect the public. BN has failed to protect the public university. BN has failed to protect the public in public areas and in the areas of residence. BN has failed to protect the poor. BN has failed to build a quality of life to the public.

    BN failed……….BN failed……….BN failed……….And what do we do when someone fails! We don't reward them with another vote.

    Thugs, road hooligans and gangsters are now recognized by BN as national assets. Why? Because the BN ministers themselves behave like thugs, road hooligans and gangsters. They even refuse to pay their traffic fines. Malaysia needs a change in government urgently!

  • Academic qualification is usually an indicator of achievements. However, over the last three decades, qualifications from Malaysia are suspects. Further, appointment to teaching posts in universities might not reflect ability.

    So when a malay is appointed, the tendency is to think that he is a product of the NEP, in the sense that he could not be there based on meritocracy. People perception take time to change. The change might take place long after the NEP has been banished.

    You cannot appoint a non-malay to the position and expect him to perform when he is expected not to rock the boat. He or she had to accept the Umno standard of meritocracy which is merito-crazy.

    As has been said elsewhere, meritocracy is an anathema to the NEP and although world-class university is aspired, the NEP is not only more desired but a non negotiable imperative and cornerstone in every other aspect of national life.

    The politics of race has already started in the 1960s when Ungku Aziz was arguably appointed as the vice chancellor (VC) or of University Malaya over the better qualified professor Wang Gung Wu. From 1960s until now, one just has to ask, has politics defined by ethnicity be less or more? The answer is obvious.

    The criteria are still not world-class criteria of getting the most qualified person based on merits to be the VC of whatever race, nationality, gender and creed.

    The nation premier university need antidote to relieve back the glory day of the university.

    What is of concern now is that the government is limiting itself on the choice because of political expediencies. It has been proven that many CEOs or VCs are not capable yet the government cannot seem to accept it. When opportunities arise, the government time again is blinded by its selfish agenda and thus depriving us of having the best talent appointed.

    Since when has our 'Malaysia Boleh' spirit being influenced by other or international standard and assessment when the latter is inexpedient or inconvenient?

    We just don't care. For examples: we did not run to IMF when the hedge funds attacked our currency; we did not care about international opinion when we prosecuted our deputy premier for sodomy and gave him a black eye;

    we certainly do not care for international opinion questioning the oddity of why affirmative policies are institutionalised here to favour the majority when world over there - they are institutionalised to favour the minorities.

    In the absence of alternatives - since pride, politics, NEP and hubris, will always be the imperatives, it is really the only way to go!

  • Chinese schools are open to all students irrespective of their ethnic and religious background - on one condition - the student must be able to cope with the workload.

    Compare grade-to-grade, Chinese school students are much more competitive and mature than national school students. They score better in various fields such as IQ, math and science.

    Most important, Chinese school students irrespective of their ethnic background are multi-lingual. Apart from their ability to read speak and write major languages such as Chinese, English and Malay - many of them also managed to master a couple Chinese dialects (e.g. Cantonese, Hokkien, Teochew, etc) they pickup from their schoolmates. Isn't that wonderful?

    In reality, Chinese school leavers are more adapt easily and mentally prepared to globalization.

    When I was a student in the US - it is well known that Malaysians and Singaporeans are the most competitive lots among foreign students. Why?

    Sharing the same cultural background, we can speak Cantonese to Hong Kongers, speak Hokkien to Taiwanese, speak Mandarin to Chinese Mainlanders, speak English to the Mat Sallehs and other foreigners - and best of all, we speak malay among ourselves so the rest of the foreigners will not understand of our conversation.

    While I do not doubt merits of arguments from both sides, one thing is sure, Chinese schools generally produce higher performance students than national schools.

    The students from day one are coached and coached to excel in their exams with never ending homework school days and school holidays while the national schools generally are more relaxed.

    I think one have misunderstood DJZ. They do recognize the importance of English, but insist that there are better ways to go about it, such as adding an extra class in English or lengthening the existing English lessons or using the English language for the humanities.

    During the 1970s, I gave free tuition in English to my high school students (all of whom had a Chinese primary school background), and when they accompanied me to the states, they'd no problems following their courses.

    Several were even offered scholarships up to PhD level, although most started work after their basic engineering degree. Like the Koreans and the Taiwanese, their lack of an English background didn't hinder them from becoming successful businessmen or professionals.

    One more point: I think the malay schools are also complaining about the problem of using English for math and science. Considering the level of teaching proficiency in those subjects, it would be appear to be more sensible to add more English classes or lengthen the English periods than to use the current system.

    They DJZ fear Chinese will be wiped out. If these students are to be proficient in English, they would be top achievers around, knowing Bahasa, Chinese and English unlike the malays who are only proficient in Bahasa with a little English.

    As an employer I would opt for the trilingual Chinese to the monolingual malays anytime. I may have to send him to China - the fastest growing giant of today and may be the bread and butter of many Malaysian Chinese.

    Note Chinese businessmen from China are now expanding globally and generating communities globally. Don't miss this opportunity.

    In a very difficult environment, all Malaysian Chinese must learn to adept and not cocooned with old traditions and pride.

  • The national parade will extol the greatness of nation's history over these past decades.

    But we need to create the space and the time for some serious discussions. It is about time that the nation stops to reflect in silence and prayer about the destiny of this tiny nation of 26 million citizens.

    Over the past years, we have done well. Our development has brought great progress in terms of super structures, facilities, economics gain and amenities.

    But lately, we are beginning to realise that despite all the progress we have attained, the country appears to be wallowing in a third world mindset and its many traps.

    The on-going political fracas is not adding any solutions to the hour. While other regions are seriously battling the challenges of globalisation, we seem to be burning precious times and resources in slugging it out as to who is more right.

    While the world appears to be divided on religious lines, we are unable to stand out as a beacon for all, given our more than four decades of experience as a multi-religious and multi-racial community. Instead we seem to be wasting too much time and energy debating on parameters that will only divide us further.

    Our social fabric does not reflect the colours of material progress the nation has achieved. We litter, we hog the roads and break the laws. We cheat on the weights and quality of produce.

    Reading is at an all-time low now so much so that the cabinet has to address it. We do not spend on books and the prices are not getting any cheaper.

    Our education system never seems to get out of its web of problems. The fact that tuition is moving ahead in a big way across the nation is a manifestation of how serious the problem is.

    Our national drug problem has escalated to the tune of having some two million addicts. The rehabilitation centres are bursting at their seams. Snatch thieves and robbers are having a easy get-away while the citizens spend huge amounts on all kinds of security devices to the point, that we now live in homes barricaded with padlocks with metal grills from entrance to ceiling.

    Corruption is taking on a new cloak. Traders shortchange. Imitation goods are going up in sales. Employees cheat on time. CD pirates thrive. Builders cheat on material quality.

    We therefore need to ask: What good is all this so-called roads and buildings, infrastructure, developments, if our society has not matured in tandem with the growth? Of what greatness is our long history of peace if we are not able to go beyond the realms of religious tolerance?

    What pride can we really take in the fact that the nation is a multiracial one when our politicians still sing along racial divides and we still call ourselves Malay, Indian, Chinese, or 'others' instead of Malaysian?

    Let not our golden jubilee next year continues as another mere window-dressing.

  • Just spoke to a friend of mine, and she told me that a close friend of her studying in Singapore, just visited Malaysia over the weekend. And so, I asked her what did her friend tell her about Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur to be specific……….and you know what, the first word is - dirty.

    True enough, I think many Malaysians still have poor mentality in terms of keeping the public area clean, and not to litter. Yup Malaysia is so dirty, as said by our prime minister, we have 1st class facilities but 3rd class mentalities.

    I went to Australia and it is so clean, and the citizens really abide the rules like wearing the seatbelts while driving etc. We Malaysians always have problems on obeying the rules.

    The Australian Chinese will be great asset in the next 10-20 years. Because Australia is eyeing the China share of investment. The influence of China economy policy will definitely reach Australia.

    So it would be good for Australian Chinese to study Mandarin as well. English is much easily to master than Mandarin. Dual languages for young Australian Chinese will be beneficial for them as they can provide a link between the rich China and Australian expertise.

    Good luck to all fellow Australian Chinese.

    I am thinking of doing a post grad degree just for the sake of running away from this Malaysia country.

    Australia or Hong Kong or Shanghai mainly because of their culture and weather similarities. I hate everything about Malaysia - the people, the politics and especially the weather.

    And if you think you want to play a role in "solving the many problems of Malaysia" - good for you, because it certainly not going to be my business.

    I know people say: If you don't like Malaysia, get out of the country! Yes, I am doing just that. Cheers to our politicians!

  • My understanding is so long as there is discrimination against one party, there will never be trust among each other. Let take for an example, imagine a person work so hard each day to support his family, and at the end of the day, he/she realize that the tax paying to the government will fully used to subsized and assist another party systematically.

    Given that the economic share cake has now been totally controlled by the malays (more than 50%) and couple with all those systematic discrimination action taken by the government, I wonder how the unity of Bangsa Malaysia is going to exist.

    In fact, my personal view is all has to do with the malays self, I find malay is very disgruntled and never satisfied, and with disgruntled behavior that is built in subconsciously, no wonder all the malay employees work in the government institution or any government link company will systematically bias when comes to approving some decision that involve "malay" and "non-malay", for example, we always see our leader talks about racial harmony and education scholarship should based on merit and fair.

    However, little did he realize that when come to execution of his talking is not actually implemented by the middle management people in those institution.

    A general truth is high dependency behavior will not make you growth!

    Anyhow, don't be so naive, I hope you malay can read more newspaper and open up your eyes to see things more clearly. Quite clearly you have no idea what is going on in this country in term of the policy that have been implemented by our government.

    Did you realized that your income that you earned is being divert to systematically assist the already affluent malay community!

    I recently bought a condo at PJ, and one of the buyer next to me is a malay and was driving a brand new Honda Accord, and during conversation between him and his family that they can be granted a discount of 10%.

    This is a real discrimination and obviously the government would have been taking to the court if this happen in the USA (unfortunately our legal system is also not discrimination entity).

    Did you realize that nowadays that most of the people buying the branded staffs in Kuala Lumpur is dominated by malays, just take a scroll one day to KLCC and ask the branded shop personal about the majority of their community customer, you will be surprised.

    Further, what really upset is the education scholarship not granted to other races. Big hope, I am fervent believer of God, and my church always pray for Malaysia. Do me a favor, wake up yourself, or stop disguising yourself.

    I thanked God today because he has woke me up from my foolishness. Now it is my duty to wake you all up if you are still sleeping.

    Yes, I can make a change! From now onward, as much as possible, I will not support any organization or body that worship racial discrimination. I will start this from petrol station and fast food restaurant. I do not have to wait until general election to decide what type of government I want.

    And as for you, my beloved people, you have to decide today whether you want to reject, ignore or accept, my invitation to make a change in our country for the better future of our children and their next generation.

    May God's wisdom be with you all.

  • Friends, I am one of the fortunate ones who have been supporting the opposition since in the 1970s. Let me tell you - one told us exactly what was to come, what to expect from the Malaysia racist government. So this is what I did.

    I decided to have only two children! Give the best education within my means. Do extra jobs, save as much as I could, invest wisely in unit trusts, etc.

    My children did remarkably well in the SPM. I told them not to apply for any scholarships for local universities. You see, I did not want them to go through the trauma of being discriminated against for being a Malaysian with the wrong name and skin colour.

    I sent them for a twinning program in one of the local private colleges for the first 2 years and the remaining 2 years in the US.

    They didn't need to take a loan and be beholden to a racist government. Now they are free to work wherever they want. In fact I have advised them not to return to Malaysia and make their homes elsewhere.

    As I see it, there is no future for them and their children in this country. Discrimination will be even more pronounced as the years go by. Islamization will slowly but surely creep into all aspects of our lives.

    Malay dominance is now fully in place and from now on discrimination will take alarming proportions but we will not be able to lift one finger to undo the damage. We are helpless.

    Now we have reached a stage where we do not even have the right to a dead body (remember Moorthy)! Even to keep a pet dog is being discouraged by imposing absurd regulation and rules. A rich malay gets a discount for buying house without admitting that the discount is paid for by the non-malays.

    You can call me what you like. I have made a choice for my children's future. Why should they serve a country that has been discriminating them since childhood! You discriminate and expect loyalty?

  • The original concept of NEP is laudable, but along the way it has been politicised by Umno aspirants. Yes, Tun Razak spelt out it was not to rob A to pay B. The formula was to expand the economic cake.

    From what I see there is no sincerity among the malay leadership to uplift the malay masses. To deflect this discrepancy, non-malays are always used as the scapegoat and tarred as a threat to malay interests.

    Malaysia needs malays to be successful. But why the great divide within the malay community in terms of income parity after close to 40 years of NEP?

    You blame the implementation instead of the policy. But who are the implementers? Not the non-malays by any stretch of imagination. It is all your corrupt leaders robbing you all blind in the name of Ketuanan Melayu.

    Again, you have to look at the leaders you have which glaringly show populism to seek self-interest is the mark of their leadership.

    Economists of capitalism has long know a non secret recipe of a successful economy is best practised by non-interference of the authorities, a set policy like NEP is bound to failed in the first place! We might as well rely on the rule of communism rather than NEP!

    We should from now on apply the rule of totally non-interference free economy in Malaysia economy, government shall only maintain the basic rules of law and providing a basic social net, and its function stop here! Let the economy run as free as it should, by merit!

    Look at China and India, how they open up their economy and prosperous! Let the poor countryman to prosperous at later stage, at the meanwhile teach them how to fish, not give them the fish! Sooner or later, they will know how to fish!

    You will say it is so painful! Of course, it is painful, but it is the certain and only way.

  • I have relatives in Australia, Europe and the United States.

    Let me detail the experience of my family members in the West:

    1. Equal job opportunities at all levels exempt probably the highest post but today even this is changing. Look at the recent appointment of an Indian born lady as the CEO of Pepsi Cola.

    2. Equal opportunity to be elected as dean or vice chancellor of universities. Some of the heads of top universities in the US are Chinese or Indians.

    3. Equal opportunity to enter universities for all courses including medicine.

    4. Equal rights for all citizens unlike Malaysia where recent Muslim immigrants from Indonesian and Pakistan have been given more rights compared to non-Muslim Malaysians whose ancestors arrived in the country some 300 years ago. This is religious apartheid.

    5. No differential prices for houses.

    6. Scholarships based on either merit or need and not on creed, race or religion. In Malaysia, a malay Muslim has a better chance of getting a scholarship compared to a non-Muslim from a poor background.

    I am a Malaysian born before independence and educated at a local university and have served the government much longer than some political (PM) wannabes.

    I am saddened and very distressed to see how far the country has slid down over the past three decades. Due to corruption, excessive politicking and faulty policies, the country is gradually heading for the direction of Argentina, Indonesia and Philippines or even worse.

    I fear that we have now reached a point of no return. Only the oil reserves are buffering us from a more rapid descent. But for how long! Then the crunch will really bite.

    Please have your parachutes ready when the great crunch finally arrives.

  • Malay leaders in Malaysia like to see their folks contained in a chicken coop. They tell them that they are free and yet to be beholden to them as they are the ones providing them their feed.

    They even believe that if they left the coup, they might be eaten up by the wily fox, and that they might otherwise starve to death.

    The Singapore malays is in no illusions and they know they are out of the coup. They got to find their own nourishment and they got no leader throwing in the crumbs to them.

    If they don't want to labour for their food, they can always go across the causeway and be given citizenship rights and take advantage of all the crumbs thrown at them. But most of them will not.

    Of course the chicken shit from there have all long crossed over. But the rest have a little more dignity and stay on to show what they are really made up of.

    I respect the Singapore malays for that. It does not matter that they have made a lot of wrong turns or that they have hardly a fighting chance. But they got more respect and dignity than their kinsfolk from over Malaysia here.

    This is what half-past-six ministers that we have in Malaysia. Even comparison between Singapore malays and Malaysian Chinese, Singapore malays are never discriminated by their government based on equality.

    I have so many Singapore malay friends from school mates, college mates to business partners. Penang malays would be so glad if they are treated like Singapore malays. Just ask the Singaporeans……….do they want to be back to Malaysia?

    The problem with the Malaysia malays is their jealous attitude. If they are left behind, they will prevent others from moving ahead too! And sometimes even sabotaging others, and some resort the use to cast spell on others.

    Not only the laidback malays are preventing their own people from being successful, but other races too. We too want the malays to be successful by creating value in the society so that everyone benefit but not by taxing the non-malays then give contracts to the malays, who will then deliver half-past-six service.

    Change your own attitude first through value creation using your own tears and sweats!

    As said before, had Malaysia been managed by Lee Kuan Yew and his colleagues for the past 40 years, Malaysia would have been much better off today, including all the malays! 95% would have owned a house and no such rampant corruption!

    For the malay ultras, facts speak louder than your bigotry cries, wake up, grow up, be men instead of sissies!

    You see the problem here - the malays just cannot face up to their main problem - Laziness. This shows how thick-skinned and self-deluded these people are.

    Malaysia is a multi-racial country. Jika kamu tak suka, kamu boleh blar……….tiada orang larang.

    The fact is malays you are the biggest loser! I am trying to wake you up instead of using the way like what our government is practice to provide NEP even though it is proven NEP is a failure in the past 30 years. Keep on dreaming if you think Malaysia could achieve Vision 2020 with your kind of attitude!

    Majority of the Penang big government contracts is being awarded to the malay firms. What else you want! They get the same as other malays in Malaysia. The only different in Penang is, the Umno guys cannot tap the government fund into their own pocket, as other state Umno did. This is the main reason why they raised this issue.

    Speaking without substances and distorting facts seems to be the good old habitual ways of Malaysia malays, which is probably inherited by their much loved masters, the "malay killers" - Umno.

    To add to this, constant distorted facts with regards to the situational state of the Singapore malays remains among the commentators of Umno. It is hard not to see that some people really need to see the situation and know it firsthand before dishing out their empty vessel mentalities.

    Anyways, good thing you be it Malay, Indian, Chinese in Singapore is open to competition, and cherish diversity. Not like the radical son of terrorist we can find many in Malaysia.

    Most malays in Malaysia hate diversity and discontent to the minorities, especially the Chinese. In blog, radical malays can be either extreme or pretentiously diverse-minded. Very few is genuine.

    I do admit there are lazy malays that depends on handouts, but this kind of malays will be phase out and this kind I would say hypocrite. They tend to claim they work hard to achieve success, in fact the relaying on government support. I myself despise this kind of human being.

    Little do they realize this safety net is fast disappearing because the government is finding it increasingly difficult to maintain the system in the face of global challenges! But these handouts have become an addiction. Refuse the junkie and you get booted out of power.

    It is the malays themselves that must come to realize the damaging side effects of the NEP. For someone who wants no better than to see his own race succeed, this must be painful.

    And you can often see the malays are often envious of not only the non-malays, but of their own successful malays as well.
