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..
