The Country that I love....

Happy Birthday Malaysia...

51 years have passed....


any yet... we still don't understand what is racial unity...
For the times which had passed... i always wondered....
This is a really great country!
We can do almost anything we want...
with limited freedom to do so... =3


Well.. but my thoughts on this once beautiful country has changed....

Doubts increased....

Worry....

Pain....



You know?
It used to be a joke to say that
"Singaporeans are Kia-su people"
(ps: kia-su means "afraid of loosing")

But this year...
This very year of 2008!

yup...
We have just taken over that title!
It's all been alright for the past year during our
golden jubilee of 50 years in the running of a strong nation...

But then came the election...
March 8th.... and hell
that was a day.. that malaysians will never forget....
The government tried to scare us with that stupid may 16th issue...
all the ragging politics about why we should keep supporting the government...

Obvious...
They knew they were in big trouble...
they knew their time was up....
But they didn't want to go down without a fight...

From my point of view...
That is the true malaysian spirit...
Never giving up...
or.... Malaysia Boleh....


But somehow... you should know when is the time for you to give up....
Cause if the country was not runned on democracy..
or i should say if our politics were not played fair....
hell... i'll give this country another 10 years of survival.....
and that's a bargain already!

After the elections... there we were...
the country left in polical doubt...
I Don't Think Newspaper's have the right to speak for the people...
Because... THEY ARE NOT THE PEOPLE!
who gives them the right to say what they THINK we say...
Who knows if they have been looking the wrong way....
If you really want to know what are the people thinking...

Walk around....

ask serious students...

yes... Students....

We these days are much smarter that the generations before...
and hell we do know what is going on... we just couldn't care less.....
and yes... we do know how to solve it...
but ensure you choose wisely... as racism is still at large...


ISA and crap...
gosh... even i could come up with better answers to the world...
better than...
"He is endangering national security"
or even
"We are trying to keep him safe"
what bullshit....

(-_-)


What Have we become!? *screaming*

Why are we all hiding!? *yelling*

Hiding behind 3 miserable words..
Internal Security Act

If you are going for a battle, STAY AT THE FRONT!
or by the time the fight is over... where's your dignity...
how would u feel to tell everyone..
"I went to battle.. but i did not kill anyone as i was at the back"
(People will eventually remember you as the pussy of the country...)

I LOVE MALAYSIA!
no matter how much it would cost me...
and as a Malaysian...
I will do what it takes to ensure...
That this country will NOT GO TO THE DOGS!!!

If you really love Malaysia...
Trust in it....
Believe that you can do it....
and always

Believe In
What Is Right!

ps: Malaysia still boleh....

Avril Concert!



Hey everyone!!
Yeap!!

There she was !!

Avril Lavigne!!!

Yeap! But honestly!

For these few weeks leading to her concert...
There were quite a few shitty news on the air...


Like some saying that :
1. She was waayyyy too sexy?

2. Her clothings too revealing?!

3. Rock culture not good... (seriously? they need televisions.. or just the radio...)
-_-
It's like...

LOOK AT THIS!!

this was an article online...

Its minister Shafie Apdal had sparked criticisms of being "closed- minded" on Wednesday when he said Lavigne's show would be cancelled because it was unsuitable for Malaysian culture and could not be held on August 29, two days ahead of independence day and nearing the holy Muslim month of Ramadan.

However, the ministry official said the decision has seen been reversed, but declined to give a specific reason.

"The minister is showing our country to be a closed-minded, childish country that objects to anything different from our own culture," said Leow, a Lavigne fan who had purchased tickets for her concert weeks earlier.

"It's a relief that they've come to their senses now," he said.

Lavigne, 23, will be performing in this Muslim-majority nation for the first time.

The youth wing of a hardline opposition Islamic group had earlier called for the show to be canceled, saying Lavigne's performances were too raunchy for youths.

Malaysian Western music fans are often forced to travel to neighbouring countries such as Indonesia and Singapore to catch their favourite stars due to strict guidelines imposed on performers.

Last year, R&B singer Beyonce moved her show from Malaysia to Indonesia, and Christina Aguilera skipped the country on an Asian tour after a controversy erupted over a dress code for foreign artists.

Malaysia requires all performers to wear clothes without obscene or drug-related images and to be covered from the chest to the knees. They must also refrain from jumping, shouting, hugging and kissing on stage.

Gosh... as a Malaysian...

honestly...

I feel really embarrassed... -_-

my friends from the States were also wondering how much more screwed up the rules can be...

Furthermore.. gosh... look at the comments left on the website... -_-

Click Here to see the comments!

Anyway!
The night came!!

*and the crowd went wild!!*

yay!

I went there with Stephie and her sister too.. =3
Well the crowd started out small
Just like the usual Malaysian Timing crowds..

*Giggles*

*a small crowd at the start*

*The Lights went out!*
There she was!!
And Being Honest.. She was pretty good!
Not all fantastic!
BUT... still pretty good!

I mean imagine! 3 instruments on stage!?


Well everyone! although how much i would like to talk about it...
I just can't!!
Because i've got no words to express about it 0_0
i can't believe i'm tongue tied.!

0_0


anyway.. it ended in a pretty good bang..
But how i wish it was better....

say... hmmm.. if it was like Gwen Stefani's Concert?

Yea hers was d bomb..

XP


Anyway everyone i've gotta go...

got things to do... seeya... =3
