Somehow this year, I do not feel the "Merdeka Moment". I do not see cars decorated in Jalur Gemilang or radio/TV advertising about Merdeka or promoting "1-Malaysia". Maybe it was just me... As you know I spent many time at home rotting and not that outgoing =x However, in Facebook I saw many posts regarding this matter.
At night, around 11.30pm, it is my tradition to turn on TV1,2,3, NTV7 or chanel 8 to tune in to merdeka events and fireworks ceremony. Every year, I will tune in to hear our Perdana Menteri's touching speech and some multi-cultural performance. However, for some reason, until 11.50, I do not see any on TV... Gosh.. what happened? Does all the channels think that broadcasting such events are waste of money?
I am a big fan of the concept "One-Malaysia" however, the Siti-Inshah-Mansor incident really took me by surprise. This has caused many uproars among Chinese and Malay. This incident even caught Namewee's attention. Haha, he did a little rap song about that incident and something about racist. However his video has been removed.
“I am sad that the authorities have done nothing against the racist principal but instead focused their attention on me. I do not regret what I have done as I love my country and do not want a small group of people to stir problems,” he said.
Other than that, there are more videos on Youtube regarding racism in Malaysia. Why do Malay hates Chinese (or vice versa) that much? I did respect them for praying and during puasa, I even let them park in from of my gate. I have no issues for that. As a multi racial country, we should tolerate and respect each others. I mean, 53 years, we should be able to think maturely and rationally, neh~? Look at other country like US, I do not know it well cause I've never been there, Black and White can live as one. Even in Singapore, I didn't hear anything about racism from my buddy Naz. Why can't we be more like them? Malaysia is famous for multi racial isn't it?
Luckily the next day(today), I can see some Merdeka actions broadcasted on TV =D It was is Bukit Jalil.... Gosh I am happy =D
My apology if I said something wrong, please correct me if I did.
To show my love and respect for Malaysia :
