What can we do with 350,000 sweets

T.G.I.F! Thank God It’s Friday~~~~


Friday, Friday, Friday
I sleep until sun rise to the mid of the sky
I do nothing besides eat and enjoy my TV time!


This previous Friday night, I followed my friend to Program Citra 1 Malaysia UMT. People from Baratham Club (A club organized by all Indians) tried to break Malaysia record by using 350,000 sweets to arrange a very very big 1 Malaysia logo...erm...18m x15m ? I forgot...In the end, they success and this great project is now recorded in the Malaysia Book of Records.

Seeee..very nice and neat right?

They also did kolam (not the pool, it is an Indian culture art drawn using rice powder) at the entrance, with peacock, tanglung, wau and congkak representing Indians, Chinese, and Malays! Concept 1 Malaysia ma…


I was touched in the beginning when everyone in the hall is cheering and clapping their hands for the great success which help to bring out the name of UMT. But later then, I wonder, can this big logo really help to realize the true meaning of 1 Malaysia? Do the real “Unity and Harmony” exist in our country?


When I was a kid, I celebrated every success Malaysia achieved. I was proud to be a Malaysian. I believe that we Malays, Chinese, Indians and the rest of the races can live together...peacefully. We speak the same language, we eat foods from different ethnics, we share the glory and wealth of the country...This is my culture, this is my home!


But this belief seems like becoming weaker and lesser when I grown up.
The condition of my home is going down. I feel unsafe, I feel unfair...
Not to talk much about how I feel to it. I just hope that the country back to its peace path and has a brighter future.


1 Malaysia? Well, let’s try to make it real!
