The Art Of Sharing (Part 1)

I thought about this title long before. But it was remain as a title for at least a month or two. I don’t know what to highlight regard to this title called “The Art of Sharing”. Not because there is nothing to highlight but I felt this was not new to Malaysia.

By or without realizing Malaysian has been living in this country by sharing. From food, language, fashion, marriage and name it, you will know the proved out of it.

Living in Malaysia, we can find the art of sharing is the fundamental of the basic Malaysians. I can deliberately say if there is another word for “The Art of Sharing” it should be “Malaysia”.

I don’t have to elaborate further to Malaysian as we know we have been living by sharing this country for centuries.

From the day when Parameswara (Founder of Melaka) convert and wed a Malay Muslim girl and the following king who married Hang Li Po (China girl from China) and to till now shows Malaysia is blend with multi culture and religion.

Past is past and what ever in the past is by gone history. Malaysians actually forgotten these histories so called left out memories. Yes, Malaysians have forgotten the history on how Malaysia was “rojak” made by multi cultural and ethnic.

I am totally disappointed with the current situation which reflect Malaysian have forgotten the history. Forgot not only the history, but even we forgot the achievement of independent which achieved through hand in hand with all races.

Let me quote as what said by YB Maximus Ongkili who is also federal Minister for Science, Technology and Innovation who said there is “trouble in paradise”.

If there is trouble in paradise, it is with good reasons too. At least we can measure where we are and what went wrong.

For sure something is wrong. Seriously something is very wrong. Something is wrong with the people of Malaysia.

This paradise is facing trouble. This trouble shall jeopardize the harmony in this land. Harmony which held Malaysia as a unique land is vanishing.

The latest Cow headed incident is the proved shows the tolerance is lacking in this land. The arrest of some leaders in last night candle Virgil (06/09/09) is another proved to show the UMNO BN ruling is one sided and intolerance.

Many questions arise when double standard applied. The watchdog police was use to achieve the need of the UMNO BN goal to bring down oppositions.

Can anyone imagine the reason for the police not to act on the Shah Alan protest is because the officer is new and inexperience?

Another issue is on the MCA leader and MACC, no arrest was made and VIP treatment for Ong Tee Keat when he was called for statement but when comes to opposition they will be arrested and questioned until late night. Wonder with all the urgency.

At the end of the day, with all the racial issues played by the UMNO BN ruling government, the paradise will go into trouble and Malaysian will be losing the sentiment of sharing.

The questions arise, why Malaysia have lost her art of sharing?

Yes, by claiming the rights by one ethnic alone by the name of “Bumiputra” and claim this country belong to only one race is the reason why Malaysia is suffering. The others were sidelined by the name of religion and race base policy.

Than, why we are talking about 1Malaysia? Why we are talking about unity? Why we are talking about fairness, when the citizens were treated with quota system?
