Malaysian at heart.

"Malaysia takkan menang sampai bila2 la."

"Malas aku nak sokong Malaysia."

"Hurm, Malaysia lagi ke?"

Have you ever heard of this phrase? I bet you yourself, as a Malaysian could be saying the same thing seeing a Malaysian athletes competing with other athletes on the world stage. Take a simple example, Beijing Olympics. I don't put high hopes, and some of my friend already predicted that our contingent couldn't brings any medals, and it happens, nearly. Thanks to Lee Chong Wei for making the prediction untrue.


Despite all of the words and sentences from us, Malaysian. Something interesting happens. During the Badminton finals between Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan. Everybody was eager to watch it. Why? why did we still care?

insan X : wei malam ni ade live Malaysia wei.

me : Sejak bile pulak kau layan badminton ni?

insan X : Aku kan org Malaysia. Kene la sokong.

me : Sayang jugak kau kat negara sendiri kan?

You see, each of us, Malaysian are hungry to see a success, a phenomena, a history. We want to have something to be proud of. We want to experience the feeling of cheering for our own country in a game and be apart of the team when they're winning and made history. Just look when the football team won the Merdeka Cup(merdeka cup kan?). Everybody was excited and believing, at the stadium, home and even mapley skalipun. So, how can they say we're not supportive enough? I wonder.

Dah letih sokong negara lain.

Yeah, we need more. dengan keadaan Malaysia yg tak tentu politically, harga minyak lagi, some good news from the athletes could brings some happiness to us.

LOL hey e-zul, this is anna sagara!

I totally agree with you and I love this cute entry!

sure, m'sian always show NO interest in their ownselves, and always feel potong steam when it's buatan atau apa apa malaysia.

but when time really comes, msian actually wanna be as successful and great like other countries. problem is need to sokong from the very start and be positive at the beginning, whether we will win/make it or not. last minute only wanna cheer or try out things, not that epic, rite? hehe.

i hope there is something to change msian attitude ;P to grow better
