The Malay Malaise

I just don't get the Malay people sometimes. They often behave more uncivilized than the Africans who live in jungles. Racist comment or pure fact? That is the question. Of course, in my opinion, its a pure fact. Last year, we all saw them torture and abuse human rights when they manhandled and tormented thousands of Indians who took to the streets to protest the "apartheid" in Malaysia.

Today however, the world saw another protest in Penang, a state that wants to remove this "apartheid" that has engulfed the country. This protest was carried led and carried out by UMNO, the ruling Malay party in Malaysia who didn't accept the removal of the extra rights the Malay people have been receiving all this while, in what the government run media calls a "peaceful demonstration". Peaceful my balls! Some shops had to be shutdown in order to maintain stability and to avoid these Malay people from behaving even more uncivilized that they already are.

Whatever it is, the moral of the story here is that UMNO should live up to its own words. UMNO has said repeatedly in the past and in present, that street protests are illegal, especially after the elections and people who cannot obey these orders, shall face the full brunt of the law. What makes them think that the law does not apply to them? It looks to me like this double standards in Malaysian law will continue to exist for a very long time, and the world's top governing bodies should put pressure on Malaysia to remove its own form of "apartheid" against the Chinese and Indians. I'm in no mood to go on about this as the world already knows what goes on in this country. To all Malays who support this "apartheid", just remember, your days of illegal and "haram" activities are numbered!
