I’m fucking famous. No, not really. I just seem to have inadvertently drawn a bit more attention to myself than expected.
Holy shitballs, Malaysia.
Yesterday, I wrote a piece about how I feel about my country of birth. As with most things on this blog (and by that I mean everyfuckingthing), I guess it was a little less than complimentary.
Most people don’t even know where the fuck Malaysia is on the map, nevermind give a shit about it. So, with most of the shit I post, I didn’t expect anyone to read it. What I also didn’t expect was that the stupid write-up would get passed around in Malaysia like a goddamn herpes outbreak. When I peeked at the blog stats, I didn’t just get tens or hundreds of clicks – I got thousands. In the first 24 hours, WordPress tells me that this stupid story had been clicked on over 10,000 times. And about three-quarters of it had come from Malaysia.
It’s so stupid that anyone actually gives a shit about what I have to say about anything.
Seriously, who gives a rat’s ass. I have no influence over anything or anyone. My own kids don’t listen to me. And people are getting caught up in what I wrote? Fuck you. People should give a shit about large collectives who do and/or say stupid shit. Lookin’ at you, North Carolina. And Arizona. Because that’s when you realize that it’s not just one insignificant person – that’s a large festering group of like-minded imbeciles. And that’s fucking terrifying. But I digress.
In any case, I didn’t expect the sort of response I got for that piece. WordPress does this thing where I have to approve a comment before it’s posted. It doesn’t just do it automatically. Which drives me a bit bananas, because that means it permits people to approve only positive comments to their blogs and leave off the negative ones. Fuck that, I make sure every comment gets approved and posted. Which also means that I wasted far too much time making sure all these comments I got were posted. You get in, and you get in, and you get in… everyone gets in for free!
So I got slightly buried with comments. Some more eloquent than others, natch. Some more coherent than others, duh. And some more outraged than others. So I thought I’d milk another post out of this subject and try and respond to some of them here. Some of these sentiments are repetitive, so I’ll just respond to one given example of the comment. Cool? Cool.
That’s actually a rather good point about the treason bit. I still hold a Malaysian passport, because I’ve been too lazy to get it switched. That said, consider how you’re actually condoning the idea that irrespective of my own location, a blog post warrants as an act of treason. A stupid blog post. Words on the interweb. Is treason. You’re a fucking idiot.
I fucking love comments along the lines of, “Hey, fuck you, you fucking fuck!” The threat to me being “fucking dead” if I was in Malaysia is a classic. The little dollop of bigotry at the end with the “faggot” seals the deal nicely. A+
That’s right, “most”.
I wish I knew more about what East Malaysia’s like. I never visited when I lived in Malaysia. It boasts this wonderful, brilliant flora and fauna that not enough people marvel over (everyone’s always busy going to Kenya, South Africa, or South America that’s had better marketing). But the neglect and exploitation of the indigenous people are not lost on me. Because it’s largely the same all over the world. The original keepers of the land are shit, and why would anyone expect things in Sabah and Sarawak, and to some measure, the other Orang Asli tribes (by the way, is that still cool to say, “Orang Asli” – I have no gauge of ethnic sensitivities in Malaysia anymore – hah, just kidding, no one in Malaysia gives a flying shit about ethnic sensitivities; my own father until a few years ago was still calling black people “colored”!) on the peninsula. I watched this episode of Bourdain’s show once in which he went to Borneo – I swear I saw more of what Borneo was like on that show than when I lived in Malaysia. Having never visited East Malaysia is a massive regret for me.
I didn’t take any fucking easy way out. I fought hard to legally stay, live, work, and pay taxes here in the U.S. I’m not letting others do anything. I’m not asking anyone to take anyone down. I don’t give a shit anymore.
THAT’S RACIST!!!!!
“Defecate his own brain” might be my new favorite phrase. I’m totally stealing it. And then I’m going to trademark it. And if anyone else tries to use it, I’ll sue your balls off.
“Admit it”? To whom? You know what else you typically admit? Guilt, culpability, usually something bad that one might hide. No one ever has to “admit” anything to that’s good. That’s how you’re treating Malaysian citizenship – some dark statement that you have to “admit”. You’ve just summed up your own ingrained belief of the value of your citizenship. Oh, and at no point have I ever told anyone, “Fuck no, I’m not from Malaysia, what are you, nuts?!” That’s just stupid.
OK, this is a good one. Because it’s making me address one thing I previously didn’t. It appears that me moving away and not staying put to “fight for our right” makes me a coward. Scratch that – a “real coward” (you know, as opposed to an unreal coward). I guess that’s one way of putting it. Which I suppose also makes anyone in the history of time who just upped, left town to seek a better future elsewhere a goddamn coward – you know, like the Pilgrims, the European colonists, my own ancestors who travelled from mainland China, you know, those guys.
What an idiot.
Here’s the thing, you fight for what you want. I don’t fucking want any of it. You can keep it. I’m not gonna stick around to fight. Whatever “fight” means. What’s that mean anyway? Marching around in some protest? I fucking detest protestors and people who strike. You want it? Then you fucking fight for it. Don’t drag me into it. Me, I got better shit to do. Like maybe plan a holiday to Borneo or something. That sounds like much more fun than this “fighting” you keep advocating for.
First of all, what’s with the slash before each apostrophe? It’s driving me nuts. Second, it’s one short, stupid post in some unknown blog that you never even heard of until today. Stop making it out to be something that’s so detrimental to the well-being of the country. Unless you really do believe that Malaysians in general are soooooo weak-minded that some shithead nobody in New York who writes some blogpost about how he loathes Malaysia is going to suddenly warp and twist their feeble minds that it’ll make them “jump off a cliff”?
Holy shit, maybe you’ve got a point there.
Not “just as stupid as Malaysia”. Here in America, we have a whole different brand of stupid. It comes in many colors, it comes in many flavors, it comes in different sizes, it comes in all hours of day and night. This shit should be patented, that’s how special it is. It’s a type of stupid that’s been finely crafted and honed and nurtured. And now you know why we have Florida. Or California.
This by far my favorite argument: “Malaysia sucks balls?! Well, the USA sucks even more balls!!” Such a kindergarten retort. Yeah, no shit America’s fucked, too. But apparently NO ONE knew this until you two geniuses brought it up. The world owes you a universal debt of gratitude for your unearthing of the dark and well-hidden truth. Conspiracy theorists, you can all go back to your moms’ basements now. Go on!
I agree, it’s not at all easy to legally live and work here in the U.S. Try getting in after the 11th of September, 2001 when you’re trying to gain legal status to live here in the U.S. while bearing a passport from a Muslim country. That shit ain’t fun, I assure you.
Obviously! I mean, it’s so clear! Because the only time I brought up race was in the context of Bumiputera privileges. Shit, only a filthy racist would suggest that everyone gets treated equally and that no one gets discounts, preferred status, or some other privilege because of their skin color. Because that practice would be TOTALLY NOT RACIST!!
You’re goddamn right I’m just another immigrant. But check this out – this is gonna blow your fucking mind: the whole goddamn country was a built as a land of immigrants (sorry, Native Americans, we’re all dicks even though I had nothing to do with spreading all that syphilis). Everyone has from got a story of coming from somewhere else. I mean, even in New York no one’s from New York – everyone’s from somewhere else. And “white boy-wannabe”? Fuck you, I work very hard on my savage tan each summer, bitch. Now, an “Asian redneck”? Shit, I’d pay good money to see that. I swear that’s a movie waiting to be made. It’d be Larry The Cable Guy doing all of Mickey Rooney’s lines from “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”.
And that’s all I have time for. Thanks for playing, everyone! Enjoy the weekend!
This Annoys Me 
You iz famous, dude.
I like your attitude. rock on
Hang in there bro. All these hateful and spiteful comments on your blog are most likely made by
1. Jealous sad souls who have no where else to go and have accepted that msia is the lesser of 2 – or more – evils. Or are simply too lazy and feeble to escape the perceived horror of this place.
2. Princes of the earth who hates you for bringing to international attention a not so pretty fact of their beloved country and hence indirectly questioning their superiority possibly leading to racial disharmony etc etc.
3. Martyrs who think they can really make a change in malaysia for the ethnic minority (ie. fools).
4. Trolls in general.
In hindsight it is actually very easy to live a happy life in malaysia. These tips might help them
1. Bow your head and acknowledge earth prince superiority.
2. Include an earth prince in all your big money making ventures. Hell, you can’t have any really big money making venture without an earth prince supporting or helping you anyway i heard.
3. Pay your income tax cukai timely.
4. Never preach about christianity in public. And especially never invite an earth prince to a dinner sponsored by christians lest you be jailed for proselytization of devout followers.
And that’s basically it. Follow these 4 big rules, live at the mercy of the supreme race, work harder to cover the lack of discounts and special privileges, and you generally can be happie here and even live a prosperous life. oh year god bless this wonderful country!!
You know what? I was on the fence with the whole argument, but after i read the comments section of your previous post i realized something: THE PEOPLE OF MY COUNTRY CANNOT HANDLE CRITICISM.
Holy balls. I love my country and disagree with some of OP’s points, but the ignorance of some of the commenters just sicken me. Make one snide comment about their beloved country and they go apeshit with profanities and bad grammar. Just accept that the fact that the country has flaws (as with any country) and be proud of its achievements instead.
People like these make me burn my damn passport.
i dare you to burn your own valid passport. LOL
OMG SO FUNNY LOL.
Just so you know, the people i was referring to are people like you.
To the writer:
Just remember that Malaysia has had a lot to do with the person you are now, the values you hold, and your general view on life. America may have given you the opportunities which you hold to be important, but Malaysia is still where you are from.
Like you, I studied abroad and am now living away from Malaysia in New Zealand. But the difference is, I am thankful and grateful for everything I experienced in Malaysia. It has made me the person I am.
You honestly sounded like an under informed, immature, spoilt child having a rant on something which you have no idea about. And I was very surprised to hear that you are a father.
I just hope that you teach your children the same values that your (Malaysian) parents must’ve thought you, like respecting elders and being a faithful spouse – which (I think) is lacking in the western world.
And yes it was a ‘harmless’ little blog but you spoke against Malaysia as a country, and I think that, that is just plain disrespectful and wrong. Be proud of where you come from, and be thankful that you are fortunate enough to live in a country that lets gives you equal rights and lets you live the ‘western life’ that you so love. Because others don’t have that opportunity.
Malaysia, has played a big part in who you are. So don’t forget it.
ya, i was surprised to hear that he’s a father too. I am proud that i am a Malaysian after knowing more about the western culture. (in NZ too)
Btw, hey, we can speak Cantonese, Chinese, English and Malay! It’s kinda cool !
If i ever get married in NZ, maybe i will bring my child to Malaysia for education, at least much better in discipline and manners
You bring your child to Msia for education is the worse mistake ever. You’re so stupid letting your child go to a shithole with shitty facilities and every fucked up little thing from Malaysian education.
Differed. He hasnt forget loh….
author never said he isnt proud of his roots. He is just saving his breath to useless explanation of some stupid issues.
Read paragraph #5 of previous post pls.
Despite your opprobrious post that lacks copious quantities of validity, i can see where your idiocy is coming from. and albeit the fact that your post has all kinds of wrong written all over it, you do indeed have a point, a blatant one but one nonetheless. I too am malaysian and can’t say i wholly agree with your thoughts but at the same time i understand your disregard for the country.
its true, were fucked up and indeed this obvious cycle of endless greed and corruption has been somewhat perfected, but the dimwitted constitution fucks you loathe so much are the very morons everyone intends to repel from the country, we have this thing called an opposition party if you weren’t aware. and not that you care, but more apathetic natives are being made aware of this issue. people whose luck aren’t as great as yours have to deal with it and make the most of it i suppose. were striving to make a change everyday, i guess that’s why everyone is so passionate on defending their cause against your post. also, as sad as to say, your informants shouldn’t be as ignorant as you are given that their still living in the country lol. its people like them thats the reason why the country is still oppressed. food for thought. i could be wrong.
On another note, how do you find the US so far? i personally think that malaysia would be better off once we persevere through this shit storm but i don’t know, the US seems perpetually fucked too in its own manipulative, decadent, elusive nature dont you think? hell, you probably ran off to a country that’s probably politically more fucked than malaysia in the long run. either way, were all fucked arent we? its how we make the best of our lives while were still alive. me, i personally think that its not the place, its the people that makes it home.
When you use big words trying to sound smart, it’s probably a good idea to use proper grammar and punctuation as well. Otherwise, you end up sounding, well like how you sound.. like an idiot
LOL…. you might just had some bad luck in America, if u’d ever lived there, as compared to Malaysia. And that’s why u preferred Malaysia!!!
It’s the people & surroundings of NYC/America to the author too, for him/her to called it home. Think about it lah….
Cheers!
…& i live in KL.
u can actually change the setting do disable approval for comments lor… LOL
i think you probably won’t get arrested even if you’re here ’cause the elections coming. those mofos ain’t gots the time for our ass yo.
Preach on good sir, love how you just cut through all the bullshit and get straight at it. Don’t get how or why so many malaysians even bother defending Malaysia after all the shit. Malaysia is fucked guys. Your delusional at best if you believe otherwise. Making any attempts at excuses is pathetic.
(PS: some of the shit that people write on the comments are fucking retarded, education is properly fucked in Malaysia)
I wonder if u do curse in front of your kids like you do in your blog. Don’t know you personally but you kinda strike me as a guy who has LOADS of issues you didnt deal with as a kid.
You weren’t bullied in school by any chance were you? Cos you seem like the kinda guy who would have. And as a result you have this FUCK you malaysia attitude. Get help dude…
to rant off the way you do, its only obvious you love your country of birth. any other joker saying otherwise, just proves your point :p Sad but true, its all downhill for malaysia. it will be like the movie Idiocracy.
Don’t worry bout it so much. Those people who say those negative comments to you are just trying to act patriotic to cover up their jealousy that they are not able to leave Msia. I’ve got that before too. Just ignore them and think of the fact that you’re in a much better place compared to them. TO be honest my parents migrated to UK before I was born and they fucking came back to this shithole Msia for I dunno what Kind of reasons. And I had a shitty time in Malaysia too. I agree with everything you say about this place. Malaysia really is a shithole and I can say it will be on par and aligned with African nations in the near future. Given a choice to most Malaysian citizens, they wouldn’t even be here so money is a factor. Yes I was born here but I fucking hate this place, it was not my choice to be born here. If I could turn back time I would have given anything for my parents to remain in UK instead. If I could have ONE thing in life.
Don’t care what ppl think!
It’s your blog and your opinions!
opinion# you dumb slut
Hey ! Good job on the post, and I also admire the way you replied the various hate comments.
I am a Malaysian like yourself, married to an American born Chinese and currently applying for my green card. Admittedly, the process is not a breezily fast one but hey – whatever it takes you know?
Some might not understand the rage and anger that you voiced out in the last post, but trust me when I say that I completely comprehend your ill feelings for Malaysia. I too vowed to leave the country, I pledged to try my best to fulfill this even if I only had the tiniest opportunity to succeed. While studying in the USA, I met my amazing husband-to-be and after a few years we were wedded and I couldn’t be happier. =)
You have a lot of guts saying what you said and for that, I really applaud you. Reading your memoir was like reading my own thoughts in words, it refreshing indeed.
This is your blog, you can say whatever and anything you want – it’s called the freedom of speech. If others don’t agree, raining on your parade will not make you change your opinions. They just have to either shut the fuck up, or learn to understand not everyone share the same opinion. So yeah, keep the hate comments coming because at the end of the day – you’re happier in the USA, and they are all being too angry and irked by your personal remarks.
What can I say? I am also very much happier with my new life in the USA alongside my wonderful husband, so as long as I am happy, what cares what others have to say? Am I ‘abandoning’ my country and being ‘ungrateful’ ? Who are you to say that? We call the shots, it is our decision to make because it’s our life after all.
Cheers. =)
p/s – I used to feel so much more rage and anger for this country, but after visiting this summer I somehow just feel apathetic towards everything there. And no, I don’t feel bad for saying this because honestly, I don’t give a fuck.
I feel proud for the people who stay, walk the street and making history. And I am happy to see you are still care of Malaysia, despite you claming yourself American.
We have long shown our respects to America. Although their raid the redmans, assasinated world leaders and war for crude oils, they have their glory times, when they free their slaves and their womens. I believed the people living at those great moments had earned certain things that capitals and decent livings couldn’t offered. Dignity, and a passionate story for their grandchild.
When we, the Malaysians, stand shoulder to shoulder, heart by heart, we shall free you from being called “yellows”, “ching chong ling long ting tong” at the other side of the planet, my brother.
lol at least we didnt bomb 3 of our own buildings and used the words “terrorists” as a guise, and at least were not voting for different parties that belong to the same organization. were all fucked as long as we live on this planet regardless. end of story
I read your 1st post through a share. Fucking hilarious. & I posted comment on FB that says:-
“the word ‘stupidest’ is still underrated.”
So yeah, a worse meaning word shall be used in the post’s title instead, i thought.
Those comments/reply that u posted alongside, are super-effing-lame. LMFAO.
I think you hv yet to mentioned abt “USA is better than Malaysia” in details of aspects, in the previous post, but these people auto-summarized you as leavers and son-of-biotch. Treason is just ridiculous and funny!!! How LAME n “Clever” these people are.
As if these people so called “proud” Malaysian can lawfully/mannered-ly use their words to damage others. As if …….(put your own sarcasm here).
That’s what i call, Total Dumbass.
I dont want to call myself Malaysian too, if im living with these dumbass over-the-top dramatic commentors. Shameful… LOL
Wouldn’t it will be a better world, if everyone just deprives all these, as a mere funny joke, and MOVE ON?!?!?!?!
Harsh comment NEVER help.
ACTION PLEASE. 😉
Larry the Cable Guy doing Mickey Rooney’s B@T landlord. ROFL!!! Comedy Gold!
INoHooUR
I love your writing. Maybe not all the things you have to say, but definitely your style. It’s funny and entertaining. People running around screaming treason and shitting your pants, CALM THE FUCK DOWN, IT IS JUST JUST JUST A BLIG POST. Going all crazy as if the article would tear our country apart is just batshit crazy.
Cause you know what, dear internet warriors who type louder than you speak? No matter what you or the author says, we’re all still gonna have to wake up shit early tomorrow, brave the shit traffic, go to work, talk cock with people (half of whom we hate), eat, shit, fuck…well basically move on with our lives. May it be KL or NY, there’s no free luch. So fuck being righteous and talking about “fighting for our country” cause the only “fighting” you do is with your keyboards. Certainly never read any news about anyone “fighting for Malaysia”. Talk is cheap. Get a move on, people. The guy’s still gonna earn his USD no matter how many times you curse him. Just accept that whatever you say is SO IRRELEVANT. It doesn’t even affect his life at 0.0001%.
I enjoyed this rant….I happen to be one of those lucky ones to have lived in NYC for the past decade and alas I find myself back in Malaysia due to family reasons. Frankly, the guy is entitled to his own opinions. He can say what he wants, it’s his blog. Those who say f*** off are no better, and honestly nothing you say is going to make him change his mind!
I thought it was well written, funny and obviously he sparked some interest – that’s already quite an accomplishment. BTW – in case you readers aren’t aware, he’s already monetizing this! Listen, if you are angry about all his points – that means he hit a nerve and clearly there are some things that just aren’t perfect in Malaysia.
Keep writing…I think it’s funny to read all the hilarious grammaticality and politically incorrect comments…goes to show how much more we need to improve in THAT department…
Immediate correction needed: I have not cashed in on any of this is any way. No one has been stupid enough to use “defecate your brain” in any context do far, thus not allowing me some frivolous lawsuit. If anyone’s got any ideas on how to make money with this, I’m all ears.
I respect your opinion and I partially understand where you are coming from. However, the fact that you’re ranting on and on about how our country is shit, how our pizza hut is shit, how the actors in our pizza hut commercial are shit because they wear sweaters etc; all that stuff makes me wonder… Doesn’t this portray the fact that you still care about Malaysia? If you’ve truly given up on this “shit” country, why waste your time on this blog post? I am a PR in Melbourne, and I’ve been living in Australia for many years, but I have not forgotten that “made in Malaysia” blood runs all over my body. I wish you a good life in NY, and you’re probably blessed with more opportunities and the ‘equality’ that you long for. I don’t know, to what extent the Americans are dishing out better treatment compared to Malaysia, but I do hope that one day you will realize that you, like the rest of us, need to do something, or at the very least, be aware of the situation that is taking away the rights our children, family and friends in Malaysia.
I’d like to add, just because Malaysia has an inadequate ruling party (not like the opposition are any more adequate), you shouldn’t paste the “shit” label on the entire country. There are so many successful Malaysians who havn’t fled to the other side “where the grass is greener”. Instead, they’re back home, eating shit, taking shit, dealing with shit, playing with shit all day long. The fact that they are still in Malaysia, and not ashamed of being branded “Malaysian” does not rob them of their credentials, neither does it make you or me any less “shittier” than them.
I know that you are entitled to your own space, and you are free to say whatever you want. I just thought I’d tell you that it’s a little disrespectful to condemn the entire country when no one (besides the Government, or mat rempits, if any) has done anything to offend you or treated you unfairly. Like you said, fuck Malaysia, aren’t you fucking your own family and friends back home?
Regards,
Another Malaysian Citizen.
“Most people don’t even know where the fuck Malaysia is on the map.”
You are trying way too hard to appeal to your audience. I guess all those hyperboles and cuss words are paying off since you “are famous.”
p.s. Don’t confuse New Yorkers with “most people.”
Everyone has their own opinion on this country and I admire that you pointed out a lot of these facts. People who commented that what you did is bad and bla bla bla does not know this is the internet. If they don’t like it, don’t read it… or read it with an open mind.
Anyway, really enjoyed your post on the stupidest country on the planet XD
nice one bro.
one problem though, it’s too short. i know where you’re coming from, but there’s a lot of things that were left unsaid and i suppose that must be one of the reasons why there are tonnes of disgruntled others leaving comments on your blog.
you left out the part about education. and you certainly didn’t say much about the economy and politics in details. i know how shitty this country is, but hey, perhaps if you’d written a little bit more then you would have convinced everyone else a lot more about your resolve.
nice try though.
Intellectual masturbation.
Good job btw.
Lived in America for the last 4 years. I’m just going to leave the note that I’m going home because its home.
malaysians are so prone to getting their knickers in a knot. can’t handle criticism, can we? burn your passport. get the fuck out of the country. racist (cos you want equality, really?). a lot of the response merely show how retarded malaysians are. as rodney king once said, after the maelstorm emanating from his beating, bless his soul), “can we just get along, people?”
nope. apparently we can’t.
Totally agree
Try to imagine Malaysia with the recent Dark Knight Rises except the role of “good guy” and “bad guy” swapped. “Batman”, “Batgirl”, “Commissioner Gordon”,”Fox”…etc are all working for the government , claim to control the “system” it needs to be in Gotham City (Nah, ours are far worse than Gotham due to corruption, we see every corruption around the corner of our small roads/Highway) and for the benefit of the people, that is why they can afford so many expensive toys such as “The “Batblade”,”Batpod” and many other cool “weapons” from their research lab. Hmmm…water cannon tank, high tech frequency disruptor, most deadly defence fences, martial law enforcers at a recent rally (I can’t name names, else I be put in jail), Nah….probably just coincidence. Then there comes along the villain like “Bane” says “Fuck that!” and free all the “prisoners” (Those innocent citizen that being locked up for speaking the truth), some unlucky one were pushed off window leaving mystery unsolved cases. In the final scene, we see them walk on street demanding “something” to change, no more protective “agenda” for the rich yet lazy bastards while the normal people still have to work hard twice the hard, yet the rich still get 30 per cent from them for their cut without much contribution to the society. Yes, they drive better than “Batblade”,”Batpod” and other cool gadgets we see in the movie. Last but not least, one of my favourite movie quote and Yes from the famous villain of all time ,”Joker” in the previous Dark Knight movie has said “WHY SO SERIOUS?”. Yes, why so serious, Malaysian?
You know the problem with most Malaysians are that they CANNOT take negative criticism and creatively improve from it. Instead they bull headedly try and try and try to bitch and whine it out defensively playing victim in the situation. Fuck you my fellow Malaysians. Stop the bitching, stop the high pitched whining and fucking do something about it. All this boo hoo and tears on being the victim in every single difficult situation you are dealt is getting rather stale like Altantuya’s corpse swept under the carpet. Do your part to change the piece of shit hands you’re dealt and not accept your fate like they want you too.
In fact, I totally agree with Kickdes on everything he said about home. Kudos dude for speaking your mind. At least you made a decision to improve your way of living instead of settling for less.
Full of BS. We can take criticism. Kickdes, you’re out of a country you so clearly despise. So shut the fuck up and stop passing comments. Your comments are a disgrace to the many Malaysians who have had the opportunity for a better future elsewhere but made the decision to stay and make the country a better one.
Keep it up bro. Many of us here feel just like you. Great candid post.
I’m a Malaysian in Chicago for work, just for a few days. Thanks for driving my attention away from the gunshots outside…
… but good work nonetheless. Just look at how much dialogue that’s been created. No if we can only bring this to Parliament…
i hope you can read in malay if not go google translater…

as a student currently studying in Australia, I actually feel the same way as you do. Finally someone who understands how I feel about my country! Sad but true
You are one of the people who forfits
Youre now just a slave whos not proud to be malaysian
You mostly look at the negative side of the government
Agreed
I agree with the anonymous guy
I like your “The stupidest country on the planet: the 24-hours-later fallout edition” post cause I can relate to it. Minus the living in America part( wish I am).But,dang!This post is funnier. Please ignore the sad, sobbing low lives though. They’re bad for health 😀
Hi. I’m a Malaysian too living overseas. I was born and raised in Malaysia but I studied overseas and now working abroad, and i have zero intention of returning to my country of birth. I feel you when you write the post. I do salute you as you have pointed out a lot of things most Malaysians abroad dare not say. Personally I can say I’m pretty happy living abroad as an ‘immigrant’ where I can earn a better living rather than living as a miserable citizen. Those people who flame you are those stupids who are too blind to see that Malaysia is a sunken ship. Or are perhaps too much in denial, just angry and bitching we get opportunities overseas for a better life. It’s ok, I get bashed too, but I’m infinite times happier with my life now than it was in KL.
I’m from Malaysia and I’m proud to be one EVEN tho I’m not a Bumiputera.
Kl? Jeez, that’s a dream birthplace because of high tech and all those fancy stuff. I live in Pulau Penang and I am kinda pissed. Sure, Malaysia MAY be kind of poor (ranking the 4th wealthy SEA country) and you CAN get punished if you write that post in Malaysia but the government most likely won’t care.
Yeah, many Malaysians grow up watching television shows from Western country (Spongebob, Batman, Marvel etc.) but I tell you, I’m proud to be Malaysian DESPITE being a Chinese.
To me, what you said was almost completely true(except teh gay lesbian shit,i dont think no one gives a shit unless probably muslims). Currently in Malasysia, We are literally on the verge of collapse cos now melay politicians are attenpting to mess up the system even further to cover up their track in the 1MDB now. Including an extra denial to other religion for politics. You said about Mat Rempit. Now you see around 80 on a cluster driving on the highway(real fucking annoying,especially when you are in school, and fartcans(dumbass who welded a tin can to their exhaust without modding the engine) so many of them, i am a car fan and when i see this I always see how low is malaysia. Most bold claims by the government are never achieved. As han rights for religions other than muslims are largely canceled(human rights group cant exist). I also look up something at the age of 21 in malaysia below 65% are employed. Not good of a country.
One more thing ,malaysian mininum wage is trash 1200 ringgit about 300 usd is terrible for a country who declared itself as a good country and rate of malaysia is dropping like flies
I’ve read through the entire chapter. Looking at the netizen’s negativated unilateral comments, I too would wanna move out. In fact, I’m no different than you. Suffice to say that I’m seeing more and more primitives coming out of the closet, or was it me and the handful few were the ones coming out from the caverns of primitivity?
I mean really. They don’t understand that you lived there due to work and whether they like it or not, they still have to respect your choice. I’ll be frank and surely you’d agree with me on this: I’m one who speaks my mind and painful truths, yet behind most keyboards, warriors wannabe laments as the type. Bukan semua org juga la kan? Setahu aku, kalau pintu pagar masih tutup, anjing tetap melalak tapi bila bukak je, diam teruih. At least I’m no dog but a bear who knows what are his needs regardless any primitive dumb self-righteous fuckers like it or not. Dunno & Duncare. In my case, it’s never about race nor religion, the obvious lies in the mentality of a person. I have no one else in Malaysia, even my sister married to a foreigner and left. Since some primitives love us to go back to China, we strive to go elsewhere “greener” than the blackened corrupted minds of the Neanderthals here. I have nothing against our country but the people’s mentality, to the point I have to face reality which I’m diagnosed with MDD. Bet millions don’t know shit about MDD yet they can argue with whatever cocks & cunts from their hunter-gatherer mindset. However, more and more Malaysians are awaken by now. Nevertheless, it’s still obvious to see some asshat telling another to speak Bahasa yet lack literature in English, as the ones with good command in English lack tatabahasa. I think their Tatas can understand better in both. Oh by the way, I’m not Indian. I’m pure Chinese, as I thought, but ¼ Thai when I found out I was sold at birth. Everyone thinks they’re better than someone, but not me. Everyone is equal in a way and everyone has their own pros & cons. That’s how people with humility thinks.
Well enough of my rants. No one would listen, so this is by far the place where I can voice out my mind due to MDD. Not everyone is as outspoken as me except when I conduct training in the military approximately 1½ decades ago.
Anyway good luck to you. How I wish I could meet you someday sipping away tea or coffee and voice out our similar opinions about some of the orang utans here which evidently some of the Americans there showing similar traits that is beyond my comprehension.
