Racism

“We assembled in small groups for out-of-door talks, in the school grounds. We were told that the Malays were the most supreme race in the world, we were God's chosen few, that the others were insignificant. We were warned about certain elements in our society and abroad, determined to undermine Malay excellence”

It was never meant to be a question-and-answer session and the lecturer omitted to qualify his contentious and contemptuous statements.

Just like my peers, my mind was focused on going overseas. In essence, we simply 'switched off'. Moreover, we hardly experienced any racial issues at our convent school.

When questions with political and religious undertones are incorporated, that is reason enough for the BTN to cease to operate and function.

When non-Malay Malaysians are chastised for their 'immigrant' status and are condescendingly told to be grateful to the Malays, that is wrong.

When only the contributions of the Malays are recognized for bringing peace and prosperity to the nation that is positively abhorrent.

When Malays are warned not to mingle with non-Malays, when only Muslims are to be respected, that is despicable.

It is a mockery that 1Malaysia has boiled down to mean 'belonging to only one race'. And the shocking thing is that many Western-educated middle class Malays believe it. ~ Mariam Mokhtar published in Malaysiakini.

Above is a statement from truly Malaysian Malay who had the guts to voice out the injustice and brain washing session conducted by the authorities.

I had some experience in exchanging some emails with one of the MARA sponsored student in facebook.

He was one of the student who stand on his feed and trying to teach me about ketuanan Melayu, hak orang Melayu, Pendatang, Sosial Contract, Suruhan Jaya Reid and many more.

Guess what, he gave up after almost over 70 emails were exchanged. Now I know why and how thick was his ego.

But it was not his fault. May be BTN succeeded in their tasked to recruit a real Malay as they wanted.

May be, he was given scholarship and in return was request to be loyal to Malays and reject those non Malays.

I don’t call this as a brainwash. I think they (Malays) actual worried that they will loss this country. Hey, it is only a may be. But when it was a may be it can be may be not too. But honestly I think this is ridiculous. Loosing the county to your countryman? - lvbala

The National Union of Bank Employees (Nube) today called for Bank Negara to thoroughly investigate a bank that it claimed is using race as a basis to evaluate loan applications. – Malaysiakini 07/12/09.

If this is true, I am definitely sure of racism is on going in Malaysia. Started from quota system in education, loans, housing, contract for contractors and now the latest is to educate those Malay friends on how to treat and respect non Malay friends.

For the record, this whole scenario was high lighted by Malay friends. The respected Malay Menteri Besar of Selangor is against it by banning all state civils from attending the course conduct by BTN.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz has described Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad as a racist for saying that there was no need to revamp the current National Civics Bureau (BTN) training modules ~ Staronline 07/12/09.

It was to my surprise when I heard this statement came from DS Nazri Aziz but I am surely welcomed it at the most.

Mariam Moktar’s revealed her part of the story and she was surely disappointed and saddened with the way they were put into a situation of no choice. In fact she was from a Convent. How surprising.

Many more Malay friends out there are still protest in silence. They keep mum but they know what is going on around them. They know this idea is ridicules.

I am confused with the way our country been lead. But I am glad the majority of Malaysians are far sited.

What else do we need to prove to them that “rakyat of Malaysia” are against racism.

Any Ideas are welcomed and for sure to be publish as an honor. Lets stay united and against racism. Let us stay united and reject this government for letting the racism grown in this soil.

I have heard.

“The Selangor government today announced that its civil servants, students in state-owned higher learning institutions and employees in state subsidiaries will be barred from attending nation-building programmes carried out by Biro Tatanegara. The programmes were described as tools of indoctrination, peppered with racist ideas.”

I have heard “Ice cream boy went to Hollywood” story.

I have heard minister having two Hari Raya open house when only one is allowed.

I have heard billions were missing in PKFZ episode.

I have heard enough how Silver state was stolen

I have heard miss used of people’s money means your money and my money.

I have heard million were given as a commission for Sukhoi and scorpion purchase.

I have heard the usage of C4 the military owned explosive used to explode humans.

I have heard previous governments invoices are still been paid.

I have heard too about million paid for flower suppliers.

I have heard corrected story about “correct correct correct” and “Looks like me, but it was not me” stories.

I have heard many and still listening to those in power.

Perhaps, all this are not new to be heard but in politic, this is how the game been played to be rich and famous.

Is this mean the catch for MACC by getting bigger fish but only small are caught in the net?

I am not going to tell you what I think and I am not ask you what you think.

No, I am not going to ask but I am going ask how long this going to go on.

So, how long miss-use of “Rakyat’s” money is going to go on? Even the commission can be considered as people’s money too.

Enough of stories, but what transpired in the latest issue about nation-building training is really shocking and disappointing. Never ever cross my mind the basic thinking of the rakyat were tainted with racial hatred poisoning.

If this is true, where are we Malaysian in Malaysia were heading? The wealth and the hard work were to be manipulated by certain group for their own agendas.

And this has been done in a professional way with the use of government funding and facilities.

But the move by the Selangor Pakatan government to ban all the training conducted by the BTN is the righteous move on time. This is the prove and this is how should be the way.

Rejection shows Pakatan is against racial politic. Racial politic manipulation is no longer needed for the country. And this is the government that we should vote for.

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?

1Malaysia

I am a Malaysian. I am a citizen of this country. I am eligible for vote to choose the leader and the ruling party to rule this country. But by the name of GOD, I was not surprise to read the housing loan offered by some famous bank in Malaysia.

This has been happening since independent day. This is the way the Malaysians were treated by the beloved motherland. This is how the citizens were protected by the government.

“Don’t ask what the country has done for me, but ask what you have done for the country” ~ Please don’t tell me to follow what was written.

I have paid my tax, my tolls, my school fees and government tax for shopping that I shop and food that I ate. What else? and how not to ask when I was treated as a second class citizen compare to my Malays friends.

Is this the type one 1Malaysia the Malaysians are talking about? (Photograph). Is this the type of treatment were to be offered to Malaysians regardless race and religion? Is this how citizen of a country should be treated?

What is the concept of 1Malaysia? What is the actually unity that been mention by PM?
Can anyone high light where the so called non bumis are heading too. Where is the future for the non bumis in this country? Will there be one?
