Just another dissatisfied custo... I mean citizen.

There has been a lot of commotion about a certain video by this dude Namewee called 'Negarakuku'. There is a lot of flaming going on between the malays and the chinese. The malays keep chanting the infamous "you tak suka you keluar" line while the chinese keep complaining about being marginalized and being mistreated. To the chinese: Well wake up bitches, life isn't fair... To the Malays: you are aware that Malaysia isn't Malaysia without the chinese and indians right? To Namewee: your MV very ho liao, and it takes a lot of guts to make those type of comments, but why you so stupid to comment about other people religion?

With all the rage going on about that song, I have a reason to rant now no?

Problems with Malaysia:
  1. Sigh if the Malays keep treating Chinese as outsiders and not Malaysians, then of course Chinese people aren't that patriotic. And with Chinese not being patriotic, of course Chinese won't work in the government. When we see other people, we see them by their race, and we don't see them as Malaysians... Like that, obviously we don't have unity in Malaysia. And the Chinese cannot be found without fault too. We Chinese tend to keep to ourselves also. It's bloody human nature... However I'm not saying that we should be like Indonesia, even taking away our chinese names, just to help unify the people and shit. Hell NO!
  2. Don't you feel Malays aren't competitive enough? What I feel is that Malays are being a little pampered, not needing to climb or to do anything for themselves. They really are princes and princesses, after all they are "bumiPUTERA" mar... And if Malays aren't competitive, how can Malaysia be competitive? After all they are the majority race... Once we run out of oil, what else can we offer? Palm oil? That's probably what we would have left. Malaysia doesn't have much to give in terms of service right? The only thing we'd probably have to offer is cheap labour... Probably a reversal of roles with the Indonesians... Which would pretty sad...
  3. I wonder if the Malays are aware that if all the Chinese who could leave Malaysia would do so, what would happen to the country? Think about it, the Chinese who can leave are most probably the people who have money and resources. When the Chinese leave, I think the money will leave as well. Investors will leave as well. Well not instantly, but when the oil runs out. And the Chinese would probably leave, seeing as how they aren't treated as Malaysians. If the country has nothing to offer them, or even treat them as actual citizens, why would they want to give back anything.
  4. The Chinese are always complaining about not getting enough attention by the Goverment, especially when it comes to school funding. We Chinese have to donate to the schools to help continue the expansion of the school and other school spendings. Well that is true, but we have to be aware that Chinese are a minority. Of course we won't be the top of the government's priority. Plus we are totally capable of supporting ourselves, aren't we?
  5. Malaysian Public Universities, why do we need kulitfication to enrol? Whether we are Malay, Chinese or Indian or whatever race, we are still Malaysian right? Why would another person be given a place over another person simply because they are bumiputera? All men are created equal said Abraham Lincoln. By supporting and enforcing racial discrimination, we would be the same as the slave traders, the KKK and we'd be even supporting the Apartheid system and and Indian Caste System, wouldn't we? People should be recognized for their merits and achievements, not for their race or DNA structure.
Honestly the list can go on forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and... You get the point. There are still so many things we can talk about that wrong with Malaysia. I just can't stand how we can be so racist and insult and judge another person when we cannot be found without fault ourselves.

Sigh. In the end, I'm just ranting. LALALA~

I am not a qualified economist, neither am I a distinguished philosopher or a world class leader. What I am is a concerned Chinese Malaysian hoping for a brighter future for Malaysia. And if you bo song with what I say, then you can come to Australia and find me and kick my ass. I'll be waiting. =.=" Hehe copying Yong Yong's style. Sorry!

i wasn't exactly touching any racial issue was i? i mean yes i was but i think a foreigner would see it the same way if he was working in malaysia.
and it was them who were first racist, with all their bumiputera benefits and all and i am merely pointing out what is wrong with being racist.
however i'm not saying i'm not racist. heck, i'd probably be the most racist person you'd ever meet.

about leaving malaysia, yeah it's very sad. well the chinese aren't known to be a patriotic race. and i have not left malaysia, just on holiday now, a rather long one...

joshua~ sry post without permission again.

1st I love your post just Wu Li and Qi Hong Statementz.

my point are:

1) According to Economics point of Adam Smith, 1st step to be globalize is stay competitive, but government try to feed some *firm (Proton)

feeding is good to protect them from big firmz but it also cause them "NVR" be independent.

2) Education Never Be FAIR. Take it as an example(My Case): I applied JPA for Medicine 11A1 and +++ achievementz = FAIL and what I heard was a 9A's fella got it cause i am skin too WHITE...

Fren of mine, apply JPA to State for Chemical Engineering - Fail as well , although he got 10A1 (Straight) + SAT 1, 2 & Advance Placement and he got universities such as : Yale, Stanford, Columbia offer and etc... Universities in State. ( before his SPM )


AND this the reason why malaysian are flying to country such as AUS, UK, US and work. Government still said : *your all should come back work for us - DUN waste of resources ....

my question - Who WASTE of RESOURCES ???

Where got need permission to post or comment. You are more than welcome to share with us your thoughts. Educate us!

Wah you clearly do your reading. I don't really read a lot...

And walauwey your friend damn geng... Ivy League Unis offer him place before SPM. I feel that it's such as waste of talent and good genes... They have the chance to go, but don't have the money. And think about it, even the malays also waste the resources. Got so many western-educated Malays but it seems that all our leaders and politicians are Malaysian Uni graduates. See where are all the patriotic Malays who so love their country? I guess we need another Tunku for Cambridge to lead our nation.

Lalala~ I like ranting much...
You know there would be so many more things we can say if we weren't so restricted by ISA and all that crap...

yes, he got Cambridge..one of the only 5 in 2006 Taylor's GCE A-level.

In the same time, his UCAS (UK application) before his "AS" results came out, he got un-conditional offer chemical engineering from Bath university. I like *ok, it's so normal for him.

Now A-level finish liao, no one know where he going to .. because he said i apply harward & MIT

Economics & Law is interesting so read a lot.( a social science le..)

*recent news - Petronas Scholar out of 15, 4 cannot fly to UK because A-level results din meet requirement for CCC
