Half An Hour More To Our 53rd Merdeka Celebration

53 years is a long time. Many achievements have taken place, yet many more could have and should have been achieved for the betterment of all Malaysians. The many efforts to promote the much desired 1Malaysia can be seen on billboards and heard echoing either on radio or from the television.
This morning, during lessons in class, patriotic songs were heard sung by young and old Malaysian of all races. Whether they are one in spirit as they are one physically at the assembly is anyone's guess. Though, much is desired for everybody to be wanted and taken care of in this very rich land of ours where literally honey flows as testified by the presence of so many immigrants from various countries.
With the recent events(months of June and July of 2010) one wonders how long more it will take, though sometime it may seem impossible, for a better place for every Malaysian to enjoy and truly experience the working of a truly democratic country.

Care and concern are everyone's responsibility in all aspects. Let the spirit of togetherness fill us so that whatever we do is for the common good for, history lessons have shown that only misery and disaster will befall on us if there is no unity for properity.

As our leader just reminded us, the shouts of 'Merdeka' is no longer for the victory over colonialism but it should be for more pertinent issues at hand namely corruption, racism and the threat of the ISA. Every citizen should work towards a peaceful and create a harmonious country where investors and other nations look us up to. With sincere and concerted efforts, these are not impossible. A radical change of mind and heart will surely ensure the success of a change for the better.

A record of thankfulness to the Almighty God for all the blessings that He has showered upon us. A country so rich in resources, free of natural disasters, having a perfect climate for agriculture and a multi-cultural society which makes it even more prosperous in attracting tourists.

Its 12 midnight, so here's wishing all Malaysians,

'A PEACEFUL, TRULY A COUNTRY WHICH IS 'MERDEKA' FROM RACISM, POVERTY, CORRUPTION AND THE ISA THREAT'
