Khas

Just read a very sad article in The Star... So sad but so very true...!
How we all know the answer but don't want to work towards it is beyond me.. We've heard similiar stories for years and still, nothing is being done to change this HUGE mistake.. What else? The oh so common topic of Malaysia giving away, or rather forcing away valuable talent out of our country.. If.. if only.. Sigh..

On the bright side, many people are speaking out and speaking up which is so important.. So proud of us! We are finally learning to tell the truth!! Telling it as it is.. Because that really is the only way isn't it?

Coincidentally, listened to Namewee's latest song.. The lyrics are translated into BM and English on his blog, and I must commend him on his honesty!! The best part is, I believe most Malaysians can completely identify with the song.. (Apart from the personal bits) I could really relate to it and coming from a person who was getting used to being disappointed by Malaysian artists, I must say there IS A LOT OF HOPE!! There are so many amazing Malaysian talents that should no longer be denied their deserved praise!! Bravo guys!! You are an inspiration to us all!!

I think what we can do, being the future of our nation, is to learn to not be bound to stereotypes,norms,or any kind of 'box'... To learn to be brave when the truth needs to be brought forth.. Not to hide like we are doing something wrong for wanting a better future for our country.. Because we have the right to want a better tomorrow. We must not let the bad decisions of a few people affect our nation for generations and generations to come.. If there is something I have learnt from history, it took someone to learn from history to make history.. We have seen and lived with the decisions made earlier, we know some of them are not helping very much, and since we know the problem, why don't we solve it? For the sake of every Malaysian! Call me idealistic, but I won't agree with you. I am not asking for world peace, just a system that at least is based on justice. Of course it does not mean that everything will run smoothly after that, but now the issue is that our whole nation has taken a wrong turn by thinking that 'special priviledge, is the way' ..

You see it everywhere everyday,unnecessary 'special prilivedges' are given, which are of course very nice for the receiver, but what about those who work twice as hard but do not even come close to where the special person is? the spirit of 'injustice' that is even found in laws that are supposed to be at least fair are not.. How,pray tell, do you expect your assets to stay here? If places were switched, would you?? Think about it..

OVERDUE :P : Awkward Hi

I think I wrote this a few years ago.. When I was still in high school..
But nonetheless..
It should be out there.. :)

Awkward Hi
By: Jane 珍怡

You said 'hi'
I said 'hi'

Weeks from that moment,
We were best friends,
When I turned to the left,
You were holding my right hand,
Even when you were not there,
You were..

often, I ask myself,
could you be the one?
I've been waiting all my life for,

you tell me things,
no one else knows,
i know things,
only you know..

except one..
i don't know..
i want to,
but i dare not,
just when i knew,
i did not..

Of Cow and Wild Boar heads...

*sigh*
What to say to something like that? Anger evolves into Hate which then becomes Ignorance...
Is this really something that will resolve your anger? Or jealousy or whatever it is that caused such stu- no..Childish actions? Is THIS what you want your grandchildren/children to hear about or maybe even worse.. reenact in the near future?
Without mutual respect there will be no way..I repeat.. NO WAY that we will progress. Without change.. good change.. how do we expect to be better? Don't even talk about being the best.. Just improve.. Have a want to move forward.. Have a NEED to Want Change... How else, pray tell, are we supposed to be a civilized community? A community or rather country that is capable of participating in global issues.. How can it be that while other countries are progressing,we are very possibly moving in the opposite direction?

You ask us how do we improve? You ask us how do we become a better nation? You ask us how we can be united?
Well. The answer has been given years ago and it has NOT changed.
You want improvement? You want unity? You want peace? BE FAIR. That s it. Not even a Godly justice which OBVIOUSLY we as humans are not capable of.. But a very humanly possible fairness.. Really.. That s what we want.. wait.. no.. it s what we NEED.

If an time was a good time to change, it would be NOW.. The world is evolving, changing, every second it is not going to wait for you. Seize the moment.The time is NOW. Don't look at situations where the citizens actually, for one of the rare times, have something to SAY! We have learned from the past and from others.. We have learned that we have a Voice.. Kami ada suara.. We a have a right to the land. We have a right to shape our future. We have a right to have a Say in how our country, Yes, OUR country, should be steered.
No. I am not saying we do not need leaders. We do. In fact now more than ever.. We need capable leaders to take charge,hand in hand with the people, to bring our nation to where it is supposed to be. I have a lot of hope in our country. I have a lot of concern and love for our nation. It is no longer 'alright' to say 'Oh tak apa la, boleh hidup tak apala'.. no more..
It is time for us to stand strong and to not be afraid.. To stand and to speak what should have been said a long time ago.

Enough is enough.

You ask why is it that other nations have better 'people'.. Look around, we have so many capable people, intelligent,talented,charismatic as well as leadership worthy people.. The problem? You refuse to abandon your ignorant past ways to allow equality.. By equality I mean gender as well as race.. Look at Obama. Would that have happened if t
America had the same ways as us? Was it a mistake having him as President? No. So why can't we learn? It is alright if we don't know, but it is not alright to act ignorant when you already know the answer..
Believe me when I say I love our nation. I want the best for our people because I see that our people are such incredibly amazing people but with the weakness of ungiven opportunities for them to prove themselves fairly.. Without any biasness. That is our number ONE enemy. Biasness. Biasness in EVERYTHING. But that s not it, it is Biasness without any reason, really, not that biasness should have a reason, but you know what I mean.. Until we are willing to confront this very obvious problem.. we will be stuck like this. Always. No matter how much effort you put in, how much money you pump in, how many years you take... Our nation will not progress. We will not be able to move anywhere but backwards. The people will move away and then the country will fall. That is not what I want, It is not what we want. Take action. Stop talking without taking actions. We are tired of it. Our youth is learning this cowardly method of talking loudly but having no actions taken. What do you expect them to do? Who do they learn from? They learn everything everyday..

Make a choice.
What kind of future do you want for our nation?
Do you even want a future?
Something to think about.. Something to work on..soon..
Malaysia Boleh.. (I mean it)
