After having watched this video, I swear that by Allah, from this point onwards I will never call myself a “Malay” and I will proudly proclaim that I am a Javanese by birth and by race.
The English is truly atrocious, thank God I have a better command of English than this so-called “student leader”! Truly I do not know where should I show my “water face”. In fact, “Malay” is not even an Arabic word!
And as for the silly suggestion that “Meem” stands for “Malay”, how about trying MARA instead?

You definitely know that the influence of a certain political party is on the wane after the racial card is used to play up sentiments and usher in support. After all, it worked before in 1969. However, times have changed and something that I would have never thought I would say now is true…Malaysian democracy has matured. Malaysians are beginning to realise that sticking to just one coalition party is not going to help change things and we saw that awareness on March 8th 2008.
As for the chap who is in the news for a racial statement he uttered, well…all I can say is that while that may be true historically, it does not give any credence to the party he represents and has probably worsened it. Perhaps Pakatan should be thanking him because if this goes on, it won’t be long before the party in question is kicked out of power.
