Just as I was feeling a breath of fresh air wafting pass with this article based on Nazir's viewpoints Strength in diversity, beyond the rhetoric, another article really caught my ticklish ribs with its absurdity. Read more here.It is another one of those articles which blasts a particular race and shoots at the easiest target - the Penang CM, but the sad thing is, the writer chose not to verify the truth. And even when the truth has already been out open to every Joe Public, the writer keeps spinning the same malicious lies.
I believe every reasonable Malaysian will know how to distinguish between lies and truth, and to try to rebut this joker will be a terrible insult to my precious time and effort. But however, the purpose of my postings are very clear - when speaking our minds, we should do it responsibly. The basic rule which governs our very existence dictates that we should always speak the truth and do no wrong. Both of which the joker has trampled upon. Maybe he has run out of ideas or issues to raise but of which he has a dateline to meet because he is being paid to do so, but tolong lah, do write something which tickles the mind not anywhere else.
Let us set the record straight, middle Malaysia is calling upon all Malaysians who love this country to take the middle path in all our endeavours. Not the left, not the right, not any part of extremism - be it when eating, driving, sharing viewpoints etc..
The Chinese name of Zhong guo literally means middle Kingdom, where the ancients regarded themselves as being middle of the universe - well before the time when people finally discovered that they will not fall off the earth if they try to travel too far.
I cannot fathom how Zhongguo can ever be in any way linked to any threats of any particular race dominating nor colonising the other. If in today's scenario, China itself is more pre occupied with forging economic advancement for its peoples, the idea of planting flags on foreign lands belongs to at least 500 years ago.
So why the insecurity?
We want prosperity, we want advancement, progress and we want to do it together - as Malaysians! as one Malaysia - if you so desire.
And oh, by the way, middle Malaysia is Zhong Ma.
