I have never been this angry with Malaysia ever before. Its not a bad anger but the kind that puts a type of determination in you to want to change the way things are done right now.
The thing that really ticks me off is how much political bickering going on when there is so many issues still at large. Like deep-rooted racism among the people. We will never be able to achieve change if we're going to keep fighting about the so-called "rights" due to us from the color of our skin. F**k that shit man! What is wrong with all of you damned politicians?
You're all concerned with lining your pockets instead of serving the people. You don't even trust the education system that you built but instead, send your kids overseas to study. How do you expect us to be satisfied with what you set up if you yourself don't give a hoot about it? And what about that rubbish about NS? I agree that a national service camp is a good thing to have but are students really being trained for "national service"? I think not. All I hear from NS trainees is that its a waste of time and energy. They're just taught motivational classes and how to march. So please, enlighten me as to how this is part of serving the nation? If you really want to implement some type of program to allow people to serve the nation...abolish the concept of race in the schools...in the workplace...in the country. Teach everyone to be Malaysian and not Chinese, Malay, Indian etc. Give everyone equal opportunity to progress, help those who can't help themselves as much as others can.
There will never be complete justice or equal opportunity but we can try. The problem is, we're not even trying. We're making things worse! Why do you think so many graduates who've had opportunities to study abroad refuse to come home because they know they will never obtain the same opportunities if they come back home. The government should make it so that the people love their country, that they would fight and defend it and not let it go to the dogs.
The problem with us is that we refuse to be proactive. We just sit on our behinds and bitch but never bother doing anything about it. Yes there will be costs involved - like the ridiculous ISA but think about it...who made the nation? We did. We can be stronger than that clown show of what we call our government right now.
I was reading an article on the Star saying that Malaysia has no other viable forms of energy and will have to turn into nuclear because coal prices are going up. No talks about clean, renewable energy like solar or hydro...just nuclear. If I was there listening to that minister say that, I would totally slap the s**t out of him. What did he study in idiot school anyway? Does he know that even the US government has to subsidize billions of dollars yearly in their nuclear industry? Does he know that even in the US, there are so many issues regarding the disposal of nuclear waste and the health and safety of the workers and their families? I want to know who made him the minister of Energy, Water and Communications!
I think the underlying issue is that the Malaysian government has a big, fat, ugly ego. We're a tiny nation but we are trying to stomach too big ambitions in order to prove ourselves in the eyes of the world. And we're doing a shitty job of it. No one is going to give a rat's ass about us but will be guaranteed to be treated like a laughing stock if we're going to continue doing things the way we are.
No we don't need more PM wannabe's, no we don't need racism in schools and university degrees or in the giving out of scholarships, no we don't need no damned NS program and no we definitely don't need nuclear energy.
We need action FOR the people.
Now get on about doing it.
I have plans on coming back home to Malaysia after I get job experience over here. And oh will I kick some government ass when I get back even if it means becoming bald due to me pulling my hair out. I will be an element of change for my country. By damned right I will be!
