Are you happy to be born as Malaysian?

A sudden thought lingers on my mind obnoxiously craving for an answer. Despite the tremendous ups and downs we all had to confront together now, does it loosen your loves towards your motherland? I bumped into some groups of people where they thought that, life could have been better if they were not born here. They insists on how embarrassed they are to hold the nationality. Some decides to migrate, and half were already are.

Personally, I understand how some people tend to not favor the rights they garnered ever since. I understand that at some point the Malays & Bumiputera gains better rights than the others. I understand how we are contemporaneously living being manipulated by those creatures with powers and $$. I do aware on the differences we may encounter between one another. I comprehend that you hate the countrys' political system (or even the PM.. or the wife. sorry). Also, I appreciate how everyone puts so much efforts in making changes. Also, I truly fathom on how unhappy you are with the countrys' developments even when we are already heading to our 60 years of independence.

But, pardon me, I do think that it is yet inappropriate to downgrade your homeland. Our home. Sometimes we just have to accept someone or something just for themselves. Same goes with Malaysia. Regardless the economical downpours, corruptions, dirty politics, racism and other issues, please never ever rub salt into the wounds. Not that I meant that we have to simply ignore and let them spoon-fed us with the negativity.

Yeah, go. Work for a better nation. Congregate in a rally, sign partitions, show what you need, what you want, express it all out. But, please don't proudly divulge to the world on how dreadful your country are. Some parts of it is still, very accommodating. Again, I understand everyones' rights. But making fun of your own land, belittle em to the world wont upgrade you to a better being, either. No issue over freedom of speech, but do it productively.
