I am a Malaysian by birth but have settled here in the UK for more than 25 years now. It's my home and I feel I have been blessed by God to be here in the UK.
Back in Malaysia, there is no freedom of speech and anything and everything is threatened with arrest and detention (which does not happen here in the UK as you would for yourselves have seen in the recent demonstrations outside Parliament house by the Tamils in the UK against persecution by the Sri Lankan Government).
I am a very high-ranking officer now with the British government and am glad to say I am observing the Malaysian politics everyday. Sometimes, I am too embarrassed to explain the truth to my British colleagues who constantly condemn the Malaysian government. The world is watching.
Najib Abdul Razak is now in power. He was overseas educated, similar to his brother both whom were educated here in the UK whilst I was studying here too. Why obtain a British education but don't improve yourselves for the betterment of the country?
I suppose they just studied here but failed to customise themselves with the good British values especially for politics - this in terms of practising equal rights for all races.
Just ask yourselves, how much of a ‘brain drain' has taken place in Malaysia with all our Malaysian geniuses scientists, researchers, surgeons and bankers all residing overseas.
Why? Because Malaysia stinks of double standards and an unbalanced and biased education system. It's time Malaysia changes for the good. Everything should be based on merit and with this the country would be much respected by all foreign investors and Malaysia will thrive.
Stop the New Economic Policy and all the bumiputera will be able stand on their feet be as competitive like the Chinese and Indians.
Let bygones be bygones. The new government has to make a drastic change for if not, Malaysia will sink.
Doesn't Najib think highly about Malaysia? Why educate and let your children live overseas? Aren't you ashamed that your children would now be able to teach you some good English manners in terms of human rights and values?
A man who is not confident of himself uses the ISA to his benefit. For that matte, there is Hishamuddin Hussein, another overseas educated person. It is so shameful on you to have spent your years studying overseas but have failed to pick up good values when you returned home.
For the alleged wrongdoing about the PM in a murder case, if there is some element of truth, we'll there is something called karma. Each of us will pay for what we have done during our lifetime.
Similarly, for Samy Vellu, it's time for him to go now. The Indians have lost trust in you so let some new leaders take over.You made millions for yourself but this won't be forgiven.
There is something called respect and dignity so don't lose them Samy because it's difficult to buy them back with money.
I write the above as a Malaysian in Britain who awaits to see changes in Malaysia either during this lifetime (hopefully) or at the very least, during my sons' lifetimes.
