Here In My Home, I'll Tell You What It's All About..

sure, the media is rife with news of more corruption, more petty fights between the leaders of our country, more attempts at brainwashing the slowly-changing society towards anti-political awareness, more BN talks of how and why they were losers in the last GE.

Things like that make me embarrassed of our half-century old country, and it ain't surprising that many people who study overseas do not want to go back. (that, and the horrible exchange rate that we have due to, well, rather, questionable decisions by our leaders *koffkoff*NEP)

I've always stayed far far away from political issues, choosing instead to focus on happy fluffy un-controversial things:) (okay maybe my avoidance of the topic is due to my ignorance of it, but no matter..). My country is changing, without me in it. Pavilion has developed, and BN has lost the 2/3 majority they've had for ages...all in the year or so that I've gone. (heck the most controversial thing that has happened in Coventry are the postal strikes sheesh)

BUT, occasional bouts of loyalty and patriotism hit me at random times ie. while halfway through the 'but for' test in causation. The video I watched sparked a fuzzy warmth deep within my-stressed-almost-into-cardiac-arrest-due-to-exams heart..and reminded me that Malaysia is n't all about politics and who-should-get-what in economics; its also about the semangat muhibbah and the multi-cultural society that we have always been so proud of. Watch it, and I hope you feel just as warm as I do now.

I miss home terribly, especially after watching this vid. I'm glad I have a home to go back to:)

Sigh, Malaysia Tanah Airku.
