It's been awhile....

Salaam & GOD bless to all....It has been a hell of a time for everybody the last 2 months....he3. With all the election hurrah, political scene rocked, price of goods keep on the rise, the blame game starts, the whatever, never, forever we will hear and a lot more things to come have yet to settle down. Come to think of it, I am still the same person, nothing much change. Still breath the stinking polluted air, going through the same jam every single morning, got to spend more then usual though. Well that's about me, what about you? How was your day, weeks, months after the election? Any different then mine? Hope so & I wish you all feel good always.
Actually what I feel the most is freedom, free to express my feelings, my thoughts, my comments, my ideas & my rebellion. Freedom is what feel the air of Malaysia for the last 2 months. The PEOPLE showed their power, the freedom of choice, the freedom to be a Malaysian in the proud land of Malaysia undivided among races, religion & ideology. All come together to show what the people can do. Can't any of them except the reality here? But unfortunately there's is something that is bordering me since yesterday. I found this article in the The Star date 07th April 2008:

Royal Malay Regiment to guard Queen Elizabeth II

KUALA LUMPUR: The Royal Malay Regiment has been selected to perform the prestigious “London Public Duties” in England. The 1st Battalion will represent the regiment.

Malaysia is the fourth Commonwealth nation after Canada, Australia and Jamaica to be given the honour to perform the Public Duties, which has a ceremonial and historic significance

One of the tasks awaiting the 75-year-old regiment is to guard Buckingham Palace, the official residence of the British monarch Queen Elizabeth II.

Army public relations office acting director Kol Fadzlette Othman Merican said 122 personnel from the royal ceremonial team had been selected for the assignment.

She said the invitation followed the visit of the Chief of General Staff of the United Kingdom Sir Richard Dannat on Feb 28 last year.

“During Sir Richard's visit he witnessed the regiment conducting the guard-of-honour.

The coordination and discipline shown won his heart, and he later invited the regiment to perform the Public Duties.

Basically, Public Duties are divided into two tasks. The first is the “Queen’s Guard” where the regiment will guard the Buckingham Palace, St James’s Palace and Tower of London.

The second is “Windsor Castle Guard,” where the regiment will guard Windsor Castle, one of the Queen Elizabeth II residences.

Kol Fadzlette said the regiment would be involved in regimental tasks with other battalions in the Household division along their placement in Buckingham Palace.

The team will depart for London on April 16 and are expected to start their duty on April 18 and end on June 12. – Bernama

It really disturb me as a Malaysian, the question in my head is who the hell is Queen Elizabeth II to us? How dare the Government send our 1st Battalion from our beloved Royal Malaysian Regiment to guard the Queen? Are we still under British rule? Hey...this is an insult to our great warriors like Tun Perak, Mat Kilau, Datok Bahaman, Dato Maharaja Lela, Dato' Onn, Chin Peng, Rashid Maidan, Ahmad Boestamam and the list goes on. Those who fight against the British colonial rule, What are they? Who are they? Where is their dignity? Where do we as guardian of the nation put our fore fathers that fought against the british in history? The back page? This is an insult to the great nation of Ours, Malaysia. Every merdeka month all the mainstream (hypocrite) media will air patriotic programs to REMIND the people of the struggle for independence, this la, that la but what happen here? Whatever agreement that is agree upon in this matter is still an insult to our great nation. There is a border line between friendship & insult. We have been insulted by our oppressor for hundreds of years. Even now we still receive insults from our southern neighbor country. How long? If we have weak leaders, we can just forget who we are, what country is this & let the dogs rule.

What do we get out of this? From which angle do we see it is an honor? We have been rule by the same law that we are having now for hundred of years. The judiciary that is shameful to the world, with corrupt practice all along the administration line plus along the corridor of power. Malaysian just gave the signal to all the parties involved in the last GE, do not make the people look stupid but then this happen. It may not been a front page story but it is a story that interest the nation. The best thing is the event is called "London Public Duties". Whoa..! that is too much. Since when do we have any obligation to the London public? As far as I am a Malaysian is concern, the Londoners have any obligation to us after what they have got from us and all the colonial countries all this while. We took back what is ours in the like of Guthrie, Sime Darby, Golden Hope, Dunlop & etc through the proper channel. Well now we let the Indian billionaires from India do the British. It's nice to see Indian billionaires buying British companies all around the world. My..my...let the Indian billionaires teach the Brits a thing or two for colonizing their great country.

What is the Commonwealth Countries actually? Is this the way to remind that all of you are under my rule before so this is still under the same rule, respect us the British Ruler? Colonialism wrap under diplomatic agreement. Same as invasion, it is call preemptive strike nowadays.

I thought I feel freedom but yet it is still the colonial mind that rule Malaysia. It is sad to think that we have betrayed our fore fathers that fought against British Colonial Rule. The insult will never stop unless we are truly Malaysian.
