Oh Malaysiaku, how long can you keep the rakyat down and drown our voices? How long more can you claim to be a kerajaan demokratik berperlembagaan? I am reading and reading and I am angry.

I am puzzled I am angry. I thought I gave up on you long ago. Perhaps I do love you after all. Love (and dare I say, patriotism?) for a country is just not demonstrated through blind faith & followship, but through voices of descension crying for a change (for the better).

Yang Adil Disembah, Yang Zalim Disanggah.

Demokrasi!

Malaysia, oh tanahairku!
