1Malaysia ah??


We are Malaysian: An Indian barber is giving a new Raya hair cut to a Malay customer in his old shop at the slow and old town of Temoh, Perak. When many of the youngster don't even know or don't even care about the country and the meaning of independence, we can see this Malaysian Indian flying up Malaysia flag in his shop.

Those who ask what else the Chinese want or those who call the Indians and Chinese are immigrants or outsiders, they should really think twice. Treat others as you would like to be treated. We are all Malaysians. All of us carrying Malaysian IC and registered with the National Registration Department are Malaysians. We and our fathers, our forefathers have been and will still contribute to the development of this country because this is Malaysian, a land for us, the Malays, Chinese, Indians, Orang Asli, Sikh, Dayak, Kadazan, Dusun, Eurasian, mixed parentage and many more ethnics on this land.

So can this photo be 1Malaysia? This is 1Malaysia for me. It's fine if there's no such thing as 1Malaysia because we have already been doing this for the past half a century. More racial tensions after the concept was introduced. Then are we still 1Malaysia??

We are Malaysians in a country called Malaysia with or without 1Malaysia. Those talking about 1Malaysia are the one who are not practicing it because they just have to convince people to accept them for their own political interest. The normal rakyat are not doing the talking but they are doing the action. The grassroat rakyat are united. Only those with power, those who wish to be popular, those who can control the media and those who wish to be jatuh kampung, try to separate the rakyat and then they talk about 1Malaysia. Why?? To show that they care but they are the one who dividing us.

Racism comes when we feel we are superior than the rest. Don't forget that we are all the same.

If you love the nation, show your love. Don't talk only no action.

I am the owner of this country too..
