CONGRATULATIONS to all Malaysians and in particular to the people of Permatang Pauh for daring to make a change!
That tsunami of 8th March and the after shocks are still being felt....but we, the Princes and Princesses of the land, have yet to see concrete changes; even in the PR States. However, after 50 years, we can surely wait a few more months.
So, what lies ahead now, is there good reasons to celebrate our 51st birthday this coming Sunday.I would like to see more reflections this Sunday and my birthday wish would be that we learn from mistakes of the past and move on towards a brighter future. It would be a disgraceful failure if what we have coming is the same old thing in a different package!
Lets move towards a truly Malaysian Malaysia - Bangsa Malaysia - where we are one race with different cultural background and religious beliefs - ONE RACE, ONE NATION! Let us move towards being a society of concerned people, a caring society a truly MUHIBBAH Society. A society where we respect each other, treat each other the way we want others to treat us: where salt taste as it should and not leave a bad taste in out mouth.
I regret to read about the SALT Story in today's STAR. see link:

The Malaysia I hope to see is a Malaysia where we do not seek to exploit each other, but live and work together in harmony, for ourselves not for others to see. There must be sincerity in all that we do.....
Coincidentally, the Holy Month of Ramadhan coincides with our 51st Merdeka Celebration - so let us reflect and enrich ourselves spiritually as well.
May God Bless us all and Guide and Lead our leaders as we move towards a greater Malaysia for all!
