I WAS MOVED…

This week, I was moved to see that Malaysia could still shine and show to the world that we are better than all the shit heads around us. There are still diamonds in the midst of garbage.

FOUR GREAT STATEMENTS MADE THIS WEEK.

On the issue of burgers, butt exercise and an incompetent Deputy IGP who said these were ok.

1.   AMBIGA - “I strongly urge all to refrain from these acts which infringe on the privacy of an individual. I urge those who are proposing to give the thosai to make them and distribute them to charity. Everyone must work towards making Malaysia a better place for all and we must be respectful of private spaces. These acts infringe upon the rights not only of the person [owner of the house] but also their neighbours. Also whether or not it infringes the law, it infringes on a person’s home and family life”. Article here.

2.   LIM KIT SIANG – “While Khalid failed in his duties as a public servant when he gave his blessings to the setting up of a burger stall outside Ambiga’s house, a most insensitive and irresponsible act, two wrongs do not make a right. WargaAMAN would be doing the nation a great service if it calls off its thosai plan outside and initiate a virtuous circle to restore decency and civility to politics and public life in Malaysia to be emulated by all Malaysians in politics and public life. It would also save the country from becoming a laughing stock in the world.” Article here.

On the issue of Tunku Aziz’s resignation

3.   LIM GUAN ENG - “I received Tunku Abdul Aziz Tunku Ibrahim’s brief resignation letter from DAP yesterday. I have tried to contact him since his announcement on Monday resigning from the party, but without any success. I have no wish to exchange personal attacks against Tunku but to convey the party’s thanks for his service during his four years as national vice-chair of DAP. Time will prove who is on the right side of history.” Article here.

4.   LIM KIT SIANG -  “I would have been the first to welcome any change of mind by Tunku Abdul Aziz about his resignation as DAP national vice chairman and DAP member but I fully respect his decision if his mind is set on resignation. Over the decades, I have known Tunku Aziz as a man of principle and integrity and my views have not changed one dot, as Tunku Aziz would have known in our three recent meetings, twice at his house and the third time in Parliament. If a parting of ways with his resignation from the party is unavoidable, let it be as gentlemanly as possible with the minimum of rancour and acrimony. Let’s move on in our separate but still common destiny to create a clean Malaysia.” Article here.

Amidst all the garbage talk from my misters that has been flying around in the news this week, the statement made by these 3 individuals really inspired me to be a better Malaysians. Sure, the desire for revenge, to embarrass Najib overseas  to the max, to sell char siew pau in front of my ministers house etc, is suepr duper strong, I am reminded again by them that to be a BETTER MALAYSIA. This definitely extend to the desire to make the PDRM who assaulted innocent Bersih victims to run the gauntlet of 250,000 people.

So today, as a fellow Malaysian, born, bred and living, my commitement to myself is...

I WILL STRIVE TO BE A BETTER MALAYSIAN!
