As a Malaysian..


 

 

This long write-up is to actually reply a reply from a friend in my post 'what malay rights??!' 

I was having a hard time with the title so i just simply come up with the title. This is a very long post. I talk a lot. Thanks if you agree or even if you don't. it's just my 2 cents. Don't be angry.

Thanks for ur view my friend, Danial. Actually I never want to or feel like questioning what the bumiputera deserved to get compared to the non-Bumiputera. Constitution says hak Bumiputera, its fine for me. In my opinion, if you work hard, then you should deserve a well treatment tak kira bangsa dan agama. Entahla dah more than 50 years kita merdeka, tak cukup lagikah Melayu dibantu? Saya tak kata mereka tak patut dibantu tapi bantuan itu sudah mencukupi. Orang Melayu dah maju, dah berdiri sama tinggi duduk sama rendah dengan kaum lain.

Cuba tengok kat merata ada doctor, engineer, lawyer, accountant orang Melayu. So?? It's time that affirmative action be implemented based on needs and merits and not merely based on ethnic. I rasa affirmative action tu perlu dikurangkan untuk mengurangkan kebergantungan orang Melayu kepada kerajaan. Semakin banyak kita memberi, semakin banyak orang akan meminta.  It’s a human nature to be lazy and not to work hard when they always get help and support by the others.

Adakah bantuan kerajaan yang berterusan ini satu strategi untuk membeli undi orang Melayu kepada BN? Is it a strategy to secure the Malay votes by keep on helping them? Yeala kalau orang bagi you bantuan, you akan rasa terhutang budi kan. Im just asking.

Jika kerajaan kata non-Malays lebih maju, tak betul kerana ada banyak non-Malays yang poor and not educated. Let say you nak kata CIna tu kaya, then fikirlah macam mana mereka boleh kaya sedangkan mereka susah mendapat bantuan kerajaan? Ini kerana orang yang tak dibantu lazimnya akan berusaha lebih kerasa untuk memajukan hidup mereka. Bukan kah begitu??

It’s the government who makes its people not competitive enough by keep saying its people especially the Malays are far more behind than the rest, therefore they need help. It’s about psychology and perception. When people keep calling you stupid, you’ll eventually become stupid although you are not. I feel the Malays should be given moral support and praise them if they are good instead of keep on calling them poor and not developed. This culture has to be changed. It’s hard to be ahead of others when we are fear of ourselves. I strongly believe that the Malays and the Bumiputras never want to be labeled and called as a weak race or bangsa yang lemah anymore.

Apa yang I geram di sini ialah apabila orang bukan Melayu dikatakan menumpang, merampas hak mereka, membolos kekayaan mereka dan dipanggil pulang ke kampong halaman. Mana orang CIna orang India nak pergi?? Ini tanah saya. Asal saya Malaysia. Kalau betul betul ikut sejarah, bukannya orang Melayu yang asalnya dari Malaysia. Saya tidak ingin mempersoalkan asal usul nenek moyang tetapi soalnya di sini ialah soal hormat kepada orang lain. Kalau dah jodoh, pelbagai kaum yang melengkapkan Negara Malaysia, terima ia seadanya, biar kita meneruskan legasi daripada nenek moyang kita, tinggal bersama dengan harmoni di bawah satu bumbung.

I ada kawan India, Melayu, Orang Asli, orang Sabah dan Sarawak. Im ok with them they are fine with me. I understand, accept and learn from them. Is it that hard to be together as a family?? We should learn from the kids. Just look at the photo. They don’t even know what is race. It’s better if they are race blind. They just have to know that they are the same, Malaysian.

I totally against racism be it from the Chinese, Indians or Malays. There should not be double standard in punishing the racists. If the government wishes to use existing laws to silent its citizens, be fair for all. Jangan tutup mata bila penyangak itu sebulu dengan anda. Every single citizen should not be racist. Each and every one of us must not support racism.

Again I langsung tak faham apa itu sebenarnya Malay rights. Apa yang hebat sangat tentang Malay rights sehingga macam ada satu kuasa ghaib yang melarang sesiapa untuk berbincang tentangnya. Saya pun hairan siapa, kenapa dan bagaimana orang bukan Melayu ingin merampas Malay rights. MCMC gona arrest me for this statement. There should be a platform of debate and discussion.

Selalunya masalah ditimbulkan orang politikus. Jangan lah jadi macam tikus. Tikus tu simply makan. Politikus tu simply cakap. Tikus tu lari sana dan sembunyi. Politikus pula lepas cakap, blame orang lain, lepas buang batu disorok tanggannya. Tikus dan politikus share the same characteristic: licik and irresponsible.

Kalaulah suatu hari nanti, untuk sehari kita jangan berkata-kata dalam bahasa politik. How nice if everything is not being politicized and relate to religions or ethnicities. I wish one day we talk in one common language, be as one race, Malaysian. Afterall we breath the same air, our blood are red.

Cuba fikir apa akan jadi kalaulah kesemua bukan Melayu pupus di bumi Malaysia. 


For your information, I am a Chinese Malaysian. I born here. I grown up here. I've been here all this while for 22 years. I'm not an immigrant. I'm not from China. I'll end my life here, Malaysia. This is my home..

Anyway congrats Danial, ur hardwork paid off. =p

  1. hey, it is indeed a long reply! LOL but im glad it is this long.
    everyday i look forward to seeing more Malaysians, regardless of religion, race, skin colour sit together at mamak's (for eg), like in tv commercials. i only experience this kind of thing when i was in uni studying. it was great. basketball together, badminton together, potluck few times a week, birthday celebrations.And i intend to keep these relationships with them even though now im back in malaysia. i wanna have reunion, more of it. i did have two reunions so far which turned out great.
    i see u,my fellow malaysian, as the same as me, a Malaysian, who loves this country. because u were born in this country. i dont see u as someone from china. truth is, my mom's forefather was from brunei, n my dad's probably from pagar ruyung (if u still remember negeri sembilan's first king was from that place LOL) technically, not originally Tanah Melayu people.

    My first friend when i moved back from kuching to penang, my tok punya kampung was a chinese named Kevin. Though ive lost contact already, i look forward to the day we meet again. Macam jejak kasih gitu.

    Oh, and dont worry, in my comment last time, i didnt see ur post as questioning the rights of Malay ke ape. i actually did tell my friend that when i get a job, have my own family, and if im not really poor, and can afford to send my kids to school, i wanna start saving for their studies, college. i dont want to rely much on gov scholarship, because to me, i think its possible to save money for your kids study in tertiary education. but lets see first how. and my friend said ko menyusahkan diri, ade duit kerajaan guna la. i said fine. say if my kids really wanna study medicine in a good college in ireland i will make sure their results are good,that they deserve the scholarships. not because they dono what to do with their lives and because got gov's scholarship to study oversea to korea, uk, just simply apply. i hate that attitude. ah..harap tak pening baca komen ni, dah melalut pulak! @____@


    i do agree that this country should be one that is run by people who work hard, and get what they deserve for their hard work. dan kalau kerajaan nak bantu, bantu yang benar2 memerlukan. bukan hanya kepada Melayu saja. ada jugak Melayu yang dibantu tu, dah senang hidup mereka dapat jugak dibantu kerajaan. i know few stories la.

    and Oh Chin Eng, though ur a chinese Malaysian, I see u as a Malaysian first. im not really good with words but i hope whatever it is im trying to say gets to you. if not i need to learn more from the gf LOL

    eh kawan, jangan cakap my hardwork paid off la. not yet. segan, being sarcastic ka? hahah

    ish...again, i hope u tak pening baca komen ni! omg. sorry dude! >___<

  2. AMBOIK!! PANJANGNYA! APA NI NAK FIGHT KEPANJANGAN KA??!! HAHAHAH!

    first of all, im not being sarcastic la. im sincere. if la org kata u dpt JPA cuz u ni Malay, u can deny cuz u did ur best n u got good results. =p

    haha i just love what u wrote until i duno wat to say. or maybe because im too drunk studying the whole night. anyway im glad that, u, as a Malay, or not being the black sheep of your own people. you know what i mean?? u as the people whom the government called as weak, feels that treatment should be equal and everyone should be treated fairly.

    that's good man! haha! kalaulah semua orang bole berfikiran terbuka, matured and dare to leave their comfort zone. the nation is going nowhere if we are still at the old same way of thinking.

    It's a human nature that we want free things. I think this is obvious especially Malaysians. We don't mind and we don't care as long as we get free things although we never work hard to get it or even if we don't need it.

    i wonder.. the effect of you studying abroad and mingling with people from different countries and cultures make you who you are today with this kind of thinking.kan kan?

    yea im a Malaysian first. hahah! i guess we have to tell that to Muhyiddin, our Deputy prime minister huh. haha.

    ok before i talk more crap, i better say bye. i need to sleep. dah subuh dah. hahah! gnite. or good morn. c u. tata =p
