Bringing the Truth to the World about Malaysia

I've just signed in on November, 22nd 1998. It is disorganised but bear with me for a while.

I am starting this page as I feel that as a responsible Malaysian citizen, I should speak out on behalf of the majority of the people's feelings about the interference of our internal political affairs by the United States.

The News Articles here are intended for people in the world to read and understand how the majority of the people of Malaysia feel and what is going on in the country as regards to Al Gore's and Albright's behaviour and also about the Reformasi Movement.

However, before I go on, I would like it to be known that I am not Anti-Americans nor am I being paid by our Government. I am only against those who insult our country without knowing the truth. I know that there are many good Americans out there who do not behave this way. My words here may be harsh but not aimed at those good Americans.

Once upon a time ago, most of us used to think that the United States were the good guys and have a lot of respect for the government but it is not the case now. It is the arrogance of the United States that has stirred up a lot of anti-United States feelings all over the world. But the United States is too proud and so righteous that they never see their own faults to see why this is happening. They only put the blame on others and not themselves !!

You only listen to one side of the story...the demonstrators and judge the government by that. Why don't you listen to the majority of the people in the streets who believe in our country's policies and support it ? It is usually the peaceful people that keeps quiet and you don't hear us. It is time we speak up !! I think it is very arrogant of the United States to behave that way. It shows that the irresponsible leaders have bad upbringing ..maybe they were never taught respect, manners or to be polite by their family. Let me make this clear though, I am not implying that all Americans are like that. I am speaking to those who think and behave like uneducated people who have no respect for others.

If your country says you care so much about human rights and want to defend that, where are you now when there are killings in Indonesia, Bosnia and other countries ??? What are you doing to help the people in plight and are dying ? Why don't you do something to help them who are genuinely in need of help ? Why do you interfere in our internal affairs that has no bloodshed and is done in a democratic way ? You only interfere when you have economic interests in that country like Kuwait. You don't care about people and so called human rights. You only want to show your power around and push people around to make them do what you like. Don't be such a hypocrite !!

It is very unfortunate that for a country which says it believes in democracy but do not respect the laws of other countries and make it their business to get the leaders they like to get into power no matter what the consequences. United States should not judge our democracy and laws which they don't fully understand. We have different histories and different backgrounds and cultures and therefore our democracy is based on that to ensure peace and order. Is that wrong ? Why can't the United States accept the differences ? Why do you have to force others to accept your ways or the way you think is right ? Do you think you are God or something ? do you think you are so righteous and never wrong ? What gives you the right to tell others what to do ?

Just like the song in Pocahontas "Colors of the Wind" which tells of how you people treat others who are not the same as you are !!

SEJATERA MALAYSIA Puji dan syukur pada Ilahi Anugerahnya tiada terhingga Kedamaian,Kemakmuran Malaysiaku bahagia

Dengan tekad untuk berjaya Berbakti pada nusa dan bangsa Kami junjung cita-cita luhur Perpaduan seluruh negeri

Seia,sekata,sehati,sejiwa Menghadapi cabaran Kami setia,kami sedia Berkorban untuk negara

Bersemarak Malaysia tercinta Kibarkan panji kebesarannya Kami rela menjaga namamu Sejahtera Malaysia

My version of "Colors of the Wind"

You think we are just ignorant people
And you think you know everything about us
But still we cannot see
If the ignorant ones are us
Now can there be so much that you don't know ?
You don't know...

Once upon a time, you killed and conquered
You took away the land that were not yours
Now with a new economic tactic
You're trying, to force your rule upon us

You think the only people who are right
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew

Chorus :
Have you ever gone through what we have gone through ?
Or felt how it was to be suppressed ?
Do you know the truth about our history ?
Have you ever thought and tried to understand ?
Have you ever shown respect that we deserve ?

Come learn about our people and our history
Come talk with us with an open mind
For once, don't try to force your ways upon us
Maybe then, you'll understand, you will know

Our democracy ways may be different
But that's what we the people chose
A peaceful nation without riots
Is that so hard for you to comprehend ?

Chorus

How do you know your ways are best ?
What gives you the right to tell us what to do ?
Please leave us alone, respect our wishes

For whether we are white or colored skinned
We have feelings and the brains like you do
And deserves the respect like you demand

You can force your ways upon us
But that'll only make us all
Lose respect and create disgust in our hearts

Fascinating Malaysia
For those of you who do not know Malaysia, let me share a few words with you. Malaysia is a beautiful country with many races living in harmony even though there might be some problems sometimes but where in the world is it perfect !! We enjoy many things that others do not in other countries. To name a few :


peace & harmony
multi-cultured
TV programs in different languages for all races....Malays, Chinese, Indians and English.
How many countries can boast of that ? Can you the United States which only air English language programs?
Schools that teach our mother tongue

We are not an extremist Muslim country like some papers portray us to be. We are not like Indonesia or Iraq. Our Prime Minister is no tyrant nor dictator. We elected him.

Come see for yourself first hand and experience the truth for yourself instead of reading it from CNN or some foreign news sources that are giving out the wrong image of our country. Malaysia is a land of beauty, peace and harmony with friendly people all around. Once you get to know Malaysia and the people, you will appreciate what we have and understand us better.


Read about Anwar Ibrahim's case and the Reformasi Movement from people who are rational and responsible on what they feel about this case so that you will get a true picture of what is going on instead of just listening to one sided stories from the demonstrators who are mainly irresponsible students.
