Unity My Arse!
2nd day of raya.How proud I am to be a malysian citizen. With different races respecting each other and living together in harmony.
Rubbish! advertisements that shows 'this' culture most probably got into my head. Because in the real world, Peace is merely an illusion, a belief and too often overrated.
I am not sure whether it is a racismn issue or not.
For me, I have no problems hanging out with people with diffrent races and backgrounds.
this morning, i woke up really early to have a head start revising in college.
pleasantly surprised that the bus have not left when i got down,
apparently the bus driver (chinese) was waiting for more passengers to enter the bus and only then he'll leave.
i was in the bus for about 2 minutes, and i saw 2 young adults (Malay) saying their good byes to their father . Touching moment ain't it?
the chinese bus driver then decides to leave the bus stop;
here comes a taxi driver(Indian) - not too happy asking the bus driver take the day off because he had to earn a living. (2nd day of raya~ not much customer... and the bus had taken all the taxi driver's customers)
The bus driver starter yelling " Apa Lu Mahu?!", "Kau ingat kamu bawa teksi sangat action ah!?" " Pukimak!" "Chao Chi Bai" .. oh yea and "BABI!"
i was so ashamed. to be a bloody chinese at that very moment. from the resonse of that indian taxi driver , it was as if there is nothing he can do/say to change that bloody bus driver.
we(chinese) can insult other races in so many ways. In malaysia, chinese always gets the bigger bite in the 'apple'. not much other races here can do to really insult us. what can they say about us?(not that we are perfect) . But fuck. this does not give us the right to insult others/ patronize them and insult them.
so yea (shaking head) ... enjoy the festives seasons!
