Where to, Tanah Airku ?


Once upon a time, Tanah Melayu

Then came the Mat Sallehs

Who brought in the Chinese and Indians...

1942 Japanese came

Malays, Chinese and Indians
Fought & fought...
Till the end.

Then 1957
British balik kampung
Malays, Chinese and Indians shouted
Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!

Later 1963...
Malaya, Singapura & North Borneo
Came together
Formed Malaysia.

Soekarno not happy
Malays, Chinese, Indians
Stood united
Konfrantasi defeated!

Then Singapore became unhappy
Lee Kuan Yew in tears, said bye-bye...
That was 1965.

Four years later 1969
Malays and Chinese quarrelled
Tunku Abdul Rahman in tears...
Sa-yo-na-ra !

There came NEP restructuring society
Chinese and Indians not happy
Because there is inequity.

Finally but not the end
3-08 came...
Malays, Chinese & Indians satu hati
Said NO to korupsi, inefficiency & inequality!

Are you Happy not Happy ?

Malaysian History in brief. Congrats cityding!

Looking back at the ups and downs of our country, it seems to be following a fixed pattern which is revolving around the racial inequality which causes the instability of the nation. But history always tells the truth and only time can prove it. As an Anak Malaysia, without our loyalty to the nation, it's going to create more chaotic situations. Let's stand firm and be united.

Most politicians are fighting for power & monetary,
But they claimed is for nation & equality,
That's why people said politics are dirty,
Among Chinese also susah nah satu hati,
How do we expect to live happily?
