Malaysia!!!

Today just made me miss home even more! Malaysian student in South Australia actually organised a few events to celebrate the upcoming Merdeka Day.
And today I went to their food festival in my university, I was literally…SHOCKED!
SATAY!!!!
BUBU-CHA CHA!!!
LAKSA!!!
NASI LEMAK!!!
CHAR KOAY TEOW!!!
MAMAK CURRY CHICKEN!!!
ROTI CANAI!!!
AND A LOT MOREE!!!!

I never felt so much at home before until today…the smell of home…and literally I mean the SMELL!! And all the wonderful taste of home!

You guys have no idea how much I misses home…and how badly I wanted to go back…

I saw a blog yesterday that writes about political stuff in Malaysia, http://malaysia-today.net/blog2006/holds.php?itemid=7435, here is the link if you are interested in reading it.
Erm…the feeling after reading that post was…heartache? I am not a news lover, and definitely don’t really care about the political issues in our country, but for the first time, I actually took some time, sat down quietly and read it…

To be honest, I love Malaysia! It is my home, and I want to go back to my home country. It is just the treatment we Chinese get that is bothering me, and not to forget how the government runs the country. It is no secret; they run it with discrimination and prejudice against us. Why? We are all Malaysians, aren’t we?

While walking down to the basement for my laundry, I actually asked myself “what do I like about Australia?”, “what are the things that Australia have and Malaysia don’t?”
Answer is simple, I like nothing about Australia, besides the weather, and the cute koalas, kangaroos, wallabies, penguins, #$$^ %&^$^&*(……..

Okay okay…that is not the point…

My point is…I like they way how they run their country, they have really good welfare for their citizens, no matter if its education, medical, or to the free busses they provide for the use of its residents…everything is so well organised…

I know that we can do better…but it’s hard…right? Really hard…because nobody listens to the Chinese…we are only second class citizens………….
