Today is the 31st of August....MERDEKA!!!..that mean that all over Malaysia the Malaysian people will celebrate the day that our nation achieve it's independence...the goverment had always been about reminding us about the hardship that our forefathers had to endure to achieve this freedom that we have now...but the things is do they really think that today generation feel the same way about merdeka...
I mean now we have been free for 48 years...an entirely new generation had emerge..the new milenium generation...and beleive me..we never had felt the hardship that our former generation felt...in those day a luxurious meal is ubi kayu (yam) with same coconut shaving and sambal.....today....hah!!!those foods are consider for those really poor peoples....the luxury food is all the great food from the hotels..and great restorans also some really great food stalls....do you see the difference...they also have curfew back that..not to mention all the restriction on their life....don't fight the goverment (wait...that still is the same now..hehehe)....you can't voice out your opinion about how the british goverment treat the Malaysian people...and oh so much more.....this day there's no way that the goverment can shut the people up..if the goverment try to do something to restrict it..heaven forbid..they are going to hear all about this rights and that rights......There's to many different things that is happening now that we really can't relate to the people that had sacrifice a lot to their cause...to free the Malaysian (but back then it was Malaya) people from the hands of the foreign dictatorship....I mean we don't have to worry about our life now like they used to...and we didn't sacrifice our life for this cause......honestly saying I don't think my generation can relate to the hardship before...
so I think the only think we think about merdeka is that there will be a HUGE concert and fireworks later on...is this really what they should aspect everytime Merdeka time come around...of course they will show this movies and tv series about the hardship they endure to achieve Merdeka....but really like we don't have other chanels to switch to...cause really those movies are sometime so boring....I don't think we will know how they felt unless.....the goverment shut off the electricity for the whole night and no one can eat anything else except ubi....they also can't go out at night and they will be heavily punnish if they disobey any of the above mention rules.....hah!!! how's that....
But I'm babling now.....anyway...I just wanna wish all MALAYSIAN.......SELAMAT HARI MERDEKA KE-48.....MEDEKA!!! MERDEKA!!! MERDEKA!!!
