Recently, there is a guy call Wong Ming Zhi uploaded a video - NEGARAKU on You Tube.
He is a Malaysian, an undergraduate student who study in Taiwan and likes to write and sing songs during his free time.
He is a VERY TALENTED R&B singer.
I personally think that he will become a very famous singer one day!!!
"Negaraku" is a R&B song created by him, which describe various Weird phenomena happen in Msia.
I personally find this song very interesting and all of the lyrics inside are just FACTS.
He did not simply crete anything.
Those things mentioned in the song are exactly what happen in Malaysia. If you guys want to listen to this song, can go www.youtube.com and search for it.
Because of this song, the Malay community are very furious and angry.
Many of them wanted to jail him.
Many claim that he is biadap (RUDE)
Some claim that he is trying to start a war...
and the worst thing is some VERY STUPID FELLA say want to burn down his house and kill him and his family.
Come on la, dear Malaysians. Wake up and face the reality.
A war is not so simple and started by a song.
A song is just an entertainment.
An entertainment is just a leisure activity to relax oneself
A relax activity is going to cool down one's mind.....
OUr prime minister said he want to hear the REAL story when he was just elected on 2003.
Ming Zhi is trying to tell a real story happen here and right now in Malaysia.
Why want to detain him???
Why want to torture a student who love his own country???
(OF COURSE HE LOVE HIS COUNTRY, if not, he won't take so much effort to create the song. If he does not like Malaysia, he will just simply ignore the news in Malaysia and will not take an effort to update himself about things going on here)
SOme time earlier, the government say want to detain blogger under ISA.
Now they want to detain somebody because of a song.
Then a few days back, a 19year old guy who forgot to bring IC stay in a jail for 6 months.
People who kill and rape and corrupt escape jail term.
People who did minor minor thing went to jail.
What happen to our Legislation system???
What happen to our system???
What is this???
can anyone tell me?????
nth is wrong with our system, it's been like this since the day we were born.
ReplyDeletethere's no such thing as truth in malaysia one, don be naive.
if u tell the truth, it will be a lie, n u r not patriotic anymore
Simple thing turns complicated.
ReplyDeleteThis is Msia.
To begin with, nothing or lets be fair...most things in our country runs the opposite way. We can't change it but we can make a difference by just holding on to what we believe. Our values, integrity and principle. Even when everything around us isn't right, we could still be on the right path.
ReplyDeleteI totally agreed on What Ming Jee sang. Here is the transalation of the song from the Web:
ReplyDeleteI Love My Country
Negaraku
(Repeat) Check it out, yo, yo, yo.
(Repeat) Negaraku, Negarakuku.
I love my country, only when you have a country you have a home
Only with a home then there will be me, standing here with you
Loudly singing, don’t be afraid
Even though I curse all the time
My song, is just like the durian
Tough and spiky, only
To see if you dare to open it, to look at the truth inside
It can be very stinky, it can be very fragrant
It only depends on what kind of nostrils you have.
Our police is called Mata
Because they have very shiny eyes
Once it’s New Year, they will be very hard working
Holding pens but they will rarely write you a receipt
Because they are thirsty, they need to drink tea
Also kopi-O, want to add sugar?
If they add sugar, their mouths will sweetly smile at you
When you are leaving
They will even go “Tata.”
Negaraku
Tanah tumpahnya darahku
Rakyat hidup bersatu dan maju.
This phenomenon, doesn’t need any improvements
Neither does it need strengthening, the police and the people work together
A cup of coffee keeps our relationship temperate
I so very suka
At least I won’t go home and receive a saman (fine or ticket)
My dad would sure be pissed
I would also kiong kan (swear word in Cantonese for “get raped”), with no car to drive
What to do, this time so very kao lat (an expression, something like aiyo)
With no car, how do I go out and play?
With no car, how do I wage “wild war”? (I don’t know what it means but I assume it has something to do with a girl)
With no car, how do I go and watch ah kua? (transvestites)
This country, I like it very much.
5 in the morning
There’s even a morning call to wake me up
Sometimes a few of them will sing together
When you listen to it, it’s like a love duet
The voice ululates like an R&B song
Even though sometimes they sing until it’s out of tune
Even though sometimes they even sing until their voices break
Some sound like cockerels, but they wake up earlier than them
This way we can know the time to get ready for class and for work
Don’t blame, the government only takes cares of the natives
Don’t blame, we don’t receive equal care
Only this way we can prove that we Chinese are not afraid of hard work
Only this way we can train ourselves to find a solution during hard times
Don’t feel weird about their standards
Because this only shows that we are smart (or capable)
Children who are not spoilt will not be dependant
Because you see some children are still not weaned off breast-feeding.
Rahmat bahagia
Tuhan kurniakan
Raja kita
Selamat bertakhta.
People who hide in government departments are even better (even more capable)
They can do everything so slowly
Even when people are queuing, are cursing stinky lelai (what’s that?)
They’re chill and unfazed
Sometimes they even bring out their kuih
They eat their nyonya kuih
More people will continue queuing up
Even when you curse stinky lelai it doesn’t matter
Because the guard at the side is dreaming
And he won’t scold you one lah.
They wrap up their heads; walk slowly and cross the road slowly
When you pass in the car you even have to let them pass first
The most important thing is to live happily; the most important thing is to live comfortably
Don’t be like the Chinese
Busy the whole day, very tough
We really cannot NOT admire this spirit”
Because this is their attitude in life.
(Attitude, attitude)
I’ve been saying good things in this song
I believe those of you who are pissed at me will like this now
The world is peaceful, and full of hope
No one is hurt, there aren’t any riots
You’re so classy, you’re so elegant
Your shit is fragrant, and you don’t curse
You guys are the most high class, every day it’s just romancing
Listening to Guang Liang Pin Guan (this local Chinese artiste)
But he already ran to Taiwan
Private school students graduate
It’s so very tough to get admitted into local universities
Actually we don’t have to get pissed about this issue
Actually this is the a very noble plan by the government
They want us to explore the world, to find new opportunities for ourselves
To learn things and come back and repay the country
This is plan is so great, I can’t quibble about it
All over the world you can see Malaysia’s children
They’re like refugees, so very shiok (expression for orgasm or high)
2007, Malaysia’s having Visit Malaysia Year
The Chinese culture is brought out and paraded
The government doesn’t even care about private school students
The certificate is thrown into the longkang (ditch), just like me
Graduated and went to Taiwan
Learned about things, and got ready to come back to repay my country
I stood on the streets of Taipei with my guitar
But my mouth still sings.
Rahmat Bahagia
Tuhan kurniakan
Raja kita Selamat bertakhta.
As a malaysian chinese citizen since I was borned, I'd been implanted a bad impression towards malaysian govt by those adult surrounding me. I hv totally no idea what these adults really mean when I was a child, until the day when I became more understanding n mature, I found out there are so many unfair n exploiting rules against non-muslim or non bumiputra, from education, media, govt loan application in various fields , contracted projects, n even when u purchase houses etc.
ReplyDeleteCome lok at the bright side:
ReplyDeletelets just say u cant get into the three most wanted courses in Msia, recently some Indonesian n Russian Uni have been accepted by gov just to fullfil the needs of these students; private medic students (overseas or local)can apply for JPA scolarship now instead of bank loan alone,ptptn also did help private students to reduce their burden.esp those 4 yrs courses which cost rm30K but get rm 66K frm ptptn, enough to loan a car too.
I agree on this blog, even though i scare being caught by ISA too, gek gek gek.
