May all Malaysians continue to live in peace and harmony and have a fair and equal chance of success.
A happy birthday to Malaysia!
Some Questions for Malaysians to ponder
- Do you appreciate the meaning of Merdeka?
- Are we more united after these 50 years?
- Is everyone really being treated fairly?
- Are we experiencing a brain drain? What are the causes?
- Is there really a fair opportunity to education, employment and business?
- Why is there still discrimination?
“Any discrimination, like sharp turns in a road, becomes critical because of the tremendous speed at which we are traveling into the high-tech world of a service economy.” - Clarence Thomas
"Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing." - 1 Peter 3:8-9 (NKJV)

Although we are celebrating our 50th years of independence, Malaysia still have long way to catch up.
Unity wise, I doubt we are as united, just the same if not worse. In schools, the kids are still mixing around their race.
Treated fairly. No. As long as NEP and Bumiputras is there, there will be no fairness. We are should just be Malaysians.
Brain drian: definitely. We read about the article about accountants prefer working in Singapore, China, Hongkong as the pay is so much better.
With corruption still rampant, we will need to root this out if not minimise it.
May your Nation celebrate on this good day!
Happy Birthday Malaysia!!!
Hi FL Sam,
I totally agree with you that although it has been 50 years of independence, Malaysia is still not progressing very well in many areas especially in the area of unity. There are lot of signs that shows deteriorating in unity and harmony. Besides, crime rate has shot up at alarming rate.
Many local Universities did not managed to produce good qualifying doctors, engineers and other professionals compare to the other countries. Besides, those that are really good are leaving the country.
Well, pray that those that are in the position where they could assist the country to do well will be granted the necessary Wisdom.
Thanks for your valuable thoughts.
Best Wishes to you, FL Sam.
