It's best you mind your own business
you see. this is what insomnia does to you
while i was suffering in a battle with slumber
my friend directed me to the site
its an article written for Australian's the age
http://www.theage.com.au/news/business/while-malaysia-fiddles-its-opportunities-are-running-dry/2006/11/14/1163266550487.html?page=fullpage
and the thought of reading some hard-core critique on my country at 2 am would slam me to sleep was such a stupid thing to suggest. instead, i fell into this overwhelming rage immediately after reading its last word of "its not malaysia boleh, its malaysia bodoh (stupid)":
wut the.......?!?!?
ok so i should give this man some credit
but before i do that
lemme release all my anger first
1) who the hell does he think he is? who gives a rats ass if malaysia decides to build "tallest twin towers" in the world just to get recognition. how does that effect you? or your country even? astonished that a country u once thought was inhibited by tree-swingging ppl are now building monstrous steels just as tall as yours?
2) why should u care and go all apeshit with the fact that MY country is arguing bout its economical distribution to its major races? yes. it is a problem. a problem indeed. but its OUR problem. why are you frying your brains trying to figure out why we haven't solved it. Maybe cause its not as easy as you think? or havent you even thought about tht? im not saying you do not have the right to write about all the major difaults malaysia is facing. as a journalist, you have all the freedom to do so (in your case, u prob think you're educating the society?) Have you every tried growing up in Malaysia? what more living there now? lately? we may have not achieved much, we may not follow the crowd by jumping into wars to fight supposed terrorism but how does our actions within our own country effect yours? are u afraid that the towers are too tall then when it falls its debris might pollute your air? are you afraid that the chinese and indians might get fed-up of malaysia and run off to australia as refugees? and afraid that they would take over your economy even more? afriad that their willingness to work after 5pm just forces your lazy ppl to extend their business hours even later? that will be a real problem for u then wouldn't it?
3) and you just have to mention OIL dont you? because why shouldn't you? the whole world is in war because of oil. is it a problem to you that we might not have anything to fall back on for our economy when our oil runs out? are you afriad then that there'll just be an additional country, a few more million people fighting for the oil you guys are after? at least we dont shoot kids just so the land they are playing on becomes ours and we can dig into them to feed ppl already in suits and 4by4s.
maybe its just my love towards my country
maybe its just a pure case of patriotism when you read that your country is being attacked by slandish words but i fail to understand why some people feel that it is right to simply write an article without any thought of how this might seem to a Malaysian themselves. what? did you not think malaysians read the age? or understand english for that matter?
theres a clear and straight line between news reporting and storytelling.
just because u add figures, recent events and statistics in the article does not make it legit what so ever.
while learning journalism i've been told that journalists should never be bias and should never write with their emotions.
but journalists are humans.
your main aim is for your readers.
what is your article doing for the readers?
to read it and go oh poor malaysia, don't know how deep in shit they are?
why dont you enlighten your ppl on your aboriginies matters and how after years of progress and development you still fail to recognize the fact that you took their lands and ignore their pleas to give them a bit of advantage.
why don't you remind your kids how you come from ancestors which were chucked out of brittain, convicts who took up too much space so were shipped off to some island?
that you are so-called developed but have young healthy youths roaming your streets begging for money from asians
what happens when our oil runs out is our problem
think about what happens when your youths gets so comfortable with the idea of begging
before trash-talking bout other countries
have a look at your own first. a good look.
its not perfect either.
what does "aussie aussie aussie, oi oi oi" mean anyway?
a pity your creativity is so limited that you feel its better to belittle others instead.
malaysia should grow up you say?
so should you.
on second thought. no. i would no give this man any credit. i would just like to thank him. for waking me up.
now im aware
no im sure
that you are in fact afraid of us
and tha this would just keep me going
we are better than you
and we will continue doing what we do without giving a shit what you think
because it is of no importance to us.
the most, is it pushes us to work harder, achieve more and not wasting time worrying about other ppl's problems.
