Ugly side of Malaysians.....

I have got lots to say yet I don't really know how to express it in words suddenly.....first of all I went to see Rush Hour 3 on Friday...it sucks....the movie was funny but it seems that the joke are mostly old ordinary joke that I feel I had seen somewhere before already.....the plot was a bit stupid and the ending....people are left hanging just like that...come on who beats down an international triad group by killing one person....what about his lower members...won't they fight back too....that's my opinion only though...youmay think otherwise...

And recently I went, I guess crazy and decided to go and watch a singing competition in PISA( Penang International Stadium Arena) First, we had to go and get the free tickets sponsored by a few companies in Penang....Myself included and two friends, we went to collect the tickets and well the bloody line was so so long....that's where our Malaysian show extreme lack of patience and politeness.....everyone was so rude that day...pushing and screaming...even an elder man I saw was pushing and when a girl reprimanded him, he said that he wants to push and it was none of her business...what was that....and those elder people say we don't have respect for them...it's them who don't have respect for us, younger generation...but that day really show a bad side of us Malaysian...I can't say I didn't pushed too because I have to admit I did too...One thing is there was no organising from the organisation in charge of the giving of the tickets and the crowd was a huge turnout...unbelievable what Malaysian could do for FREE stuff and of course the chance to see your favourite star in action is just so tempting you have to go.....like me and my friends....

That was weeks ago....I know that's kind of a long time...but this was yesterday 11 August 2007...The singing competition I was talking about....it was actually the Astro Talent AQuest Competition...very famous chinese singing competition here in Malaysian to those who don't know....the prize of this competition is a lot of money and a chance to represent Malaysia in the International Singing competition. My mom went to the competition with me....we actually went to see the guest star appearance instead of the competitors there....but I have to tell you...organising was once again a total flop out disaster....what's this....this kind of thing wasn't suppose to happen in Malaysian....what happen to first class infrastructure, first class mentality??? No wonder people and even our Prime Minister says we have first class infrastruture but third class mentality....use some brains people...the line to go in the stadium to watch the competition was super long and crowded...as a matter of fact there wasn't any line...people were squeezing to get in a door which was open partially....not only they opened the door an hour before the thing start they open it partially and everyone was screaming that it was ridiculous to not let us in in a bigger entrance. Open a bigger bloody door for heaven's sake...That's true you know.....the entrance was so small....you can't blame people for screaming or scolding....I find myself getting impatient too to get in....someone broke a door just to go in the stadium and not even one of the guards notices...I mean we have the tickets and everything yet we went in through a illegally broken down door by some bunch of teenagers just to watch a show where the winner I wanted to win didn't even won and the guest stars I wanted to see was just a small figure to see from my so unstrategic steating which was inevitable as free seating are bound to be unstrategic when you came in late like that as guards don't let you come in fast enough. If it wasn't for my desire to watch my favourite stars in action live in front of my eyes, I wouldn't have to cram in with everyone there instead I would be at home watching it on television which was also live.....my mom, my friends and I was, I can say disgusted and partly horrified by Malaysian these days....the very ugly side of Malaysian....greedy, impatient, intolerant and extreme disrespectful...well not all of the Malaysian are like that of course but these small group of people is enough to ruin our reputation as so called "warm and welcoming people"....People wake up...you want Malaysia to give you what you want you do your part be more civilised.....You know the irony of it all that we have everything and we don't appreciate them and some people who needs them can't even have it.....After watching the movie Red Cherry ( a war film of the invasion of Germans into Russia) I find that we really do lack patrotism here in Malysia...the movie was a true story and children suffered through the war, poeple dying and the agony of losing your loved ones and young very brave heroines and heroes...and have our country really lost the true meaning of Merdeka????? I don't really know.....maybe we did forget how hard it was...
