I'm educated. My foreparents toiled the fields, breaking every sweat into tears to bring a better life by way of giving all their descendants a decent education. I'm now a graduate. I speak more than 4 languages easily and so does my family.
But the sad part is - pendatangs are unwanted. My country hates me. I'm repeatedly reminded of my dark roots and told to go back where I came from. But I did not come from another alien country. All the while I've been here and got nowhere to go. I don't have parents anymore. I've a family now. I'm not given equal opportunity to live in the country of birth. I can't speak out. I can't be told to be heard. I need to earn and a family to feed and look after. My family shares the same fate - born, raised and educated in Malaysia- dark and unwanted. All of us and all future generations are pendatangs.
I'm for the rest of my life going to see the same sun and the moon. I'm often called lembu, botol, or pariah. I wonder what's my crime?
I need to live another day not for myself but for the dependents but when I look and ask my self – the answer I get is, a race unwanted and told repeatedly never to ask nor demand anything unless given. I now belong to an unwanted race in Malaysia who till now after 50 over years of Independence are still branded as a race-waste group.
I have plenty of frustrations bottled inside me. I need you to know once I had lots of kawan Melayu but all that now is no more - and many times I've asked myself why?
Here are some of the reasons:-
Sources extracted ::
L Umno brands me as Hindraf so the Malays stay away from me.
L Umno says I don’t deserve equal rights.
L UMNO many times have deemed me si-botol or pariah.
L Though I don’t confine to the doctrines of Hindraf, UMNO says am still Hindraf anyway.
L My great ancestors never came from India but am black and speak a native language so must be from an alien country UMNO says.
L I cannot talk anything about Hak Melayu or Ketuanan Melayu else I’ll be deemed a traitor and what awaits me is ISA so says UMNO.
L The very meaningful of friendship between Malays (Bumiputras) and the other-Malays (Non-Bumiputras) are ever so unrealistic. UMNO blames it on the non-Malays being unfriendly.
L When UMNO speaks, all pendatangs have to listen for only UMNO knows better what we deserve.
L UMNO decides where or if we should have a temple / church at all.
L UMNO says the Malays aren’t the threat. It’s the non Malays who are the traitors.
L UMNO blames the non-Malays for questioning their rights when we are still waiting after 50 years to know if ever we have any rights.
L Umno, after 53 years of rule says there are being fair to let the other races rule.
L Umno leaders say they want 1race relation when they’re still into mono race parties.
L UMNO claim they're not greedy, are fare and just, equal to everyone’s demand but only the President of UMNO can be the Prime Minister.
L UMNO having the largest single race party also have the largest piece of the cake in almost every area of governance - aristocracy, cabinet, parliament, judiciary, police, military and business and education.
L UMNO denounces English but the leaders of UMNO send their children to English school overseas.
L UMNO stresses the non-Malays are given ample opportunity to advance in any area of choice but the quota set is almost 99.9 % for Malays.
L UMNO have proof to show that the non-Malays rose up due to the UMNO’s help and guidance.
L UMNO leaders can never go wrong and cannot be found guilty either. They’re the law.
L UMNO is the only way for any Malaysian to succeed in life and it is imperative to support them in every way every day.
L All UMNO leaders – past and present advanced economically through their hard work, sweat and tears.
L Umno leadership has advanced economically and socially and they've succeeded in making everyone blame the non-Malays for their mistakes.
L UMNO says the AP should be only given to Malays - a license to smuggle in thousands of cars without paying duty will never be awarded to anyone other than the most overly privileged, wealthy and connected Umno elite insider - and definitely not to you if you are an ordinary decent Malay
.
.
L With Umno’s wholesale corruption, and racist propaganda that scapegoats and demonizes the non-Malays to play on your fears and anxieties, our beloved country will come to resemble the uneducated, unproductive, expensive, impoverished countri like Burma, Indonesia, Philippines or even Zimbabwe.
L Umno leaders will do anything to stay in power and wealth, and that includes dividing and ruling with lies, judicial abuse and more.
L Economic and political reality has come back to roost, and if you're still poor, you need to ask why filthy rich Umno leaders are telling you that the non-Malays continue to cheat you of your rights and prosperity.
L If you're reading this, I can presume that just like me, you did not get the exclusive contract, license, cartel or monopoly either. The truth is you and I and everyone else have been made poorer by UMNO system of governance.
L UMNO is all what you need when the economy is gloom, business affected by financial crisis, and if you wonder why other nationals work less but earn more in your own country.
L UMNO leaders are saints. They say they need to rule this Tanah Melayu like forever for the sake of race, civilization and unity else they profess the citizens of this country will be left behind to rot.
L UMNO is still talking about race and oppression while lesser advanced nations have progressed beyond modern living, equal and human rights, open competition, independent and freedom of speech, independent news and the total abolishment of racist slurs and racism.
L Umno will tell you advanced countries like Singapore have prospered at your expense. The truth is that Umno will never give you a superior system. It cannot reform because it has an addiction problem. Umno leaders are addicted to huge amounts of easy money - your money!
L Umno will tell you that their addiction to your money is in your best interests. Umno will say they only take money from non-Malays. Umno will say it is your fault if you are addicted to Umno’s Ketuanan Melayu policies and Bumiputras privileges.
L Umno is addicted to tax money and will weaken your will in succeeding you into getting addicted to their lies and scams.
L The NEP has inevitably deteriorated to become a scam whereby Umnoputras will get all the benefits and be laughing all the way to the bank and everyone else gets poorer funding their excesses - mansions, wives, fat bank accounts, licenses, contracts, monopolies, APs. You get nothing, and I get even less than nothing - blamed for being the pendatang.
My personal footnote :
There is a legacy we should leave behind for our children - all the glories and rewards we attain in our lifetime and not the pain or sorrows. Without that we're meaningless. Our very existence today is the whole reason why our forefathers sailed seas, trod with famine and torture to bring forth many shades of betterment into our lives now.
For that , we unrequitedly owe this panacea to our children ...
