Last monday , was Deepavali , but the festive atmosphere can be noticed since last friday , becasue many Indians start took off and actively moving around , preparing to celebrate festival of light . At the same time , this festival still comes with some unwanted activities/following which make the eyes of the observes have some negative perspective towards Deepavali . Hope this explains the meaning of the title .
Each unwanted points/activities below , came from my own experience mean which i saw with by own two eyes .
- Two days before Deepavali , Saturday . Afternoon , I ride across shop lots . There are two "Kedai Pajak " and two jewelry shops there , both of the Kedai Pajak is full , full with our Indians , only Indians,hhhmmm. And other two jewelarry shop is empthy .Why we Indians still have to sell or "Gadai" our golds to celebrate Deepavali ......
- A day before Deepavali , Sunday . I ride across a junction , main junction of my place . I notice three INDIANS , holding bear bottle(big) and enjoying their self . A malay uncle( pak haji ) , who riding his bike infront of me , shake his head with a cheap look . hhmmm...
- Deepvali day , not bad , the Deepavali shows at TV2 and TV3 better than years before this . Better , Our artist( Indian Artist , mannin maitergal ) , took part in this shows wearing traditional costume and not in their normal jeans koyak . Yet , they sing a song from , their own new album which the lyrics sounds like this " Kamachi , love pannedi " , OMG , its Deepavali man , look at Malay artist on raya time , they in traditional costume , will sing same Hari Raya song , again and again . Why not our artist also do the same , rather than be selfish in promoting own album , hhhmmmmm
- Two days before Deepavali(Saturday) until a day after Deepavali(tuesday) , our youngsters , their mineral water is bear(tiger , heiniken , etc) ,and wiskey( chivas , black label , etc ) . We understand , it is festive season , once or twice if necessary , we have this alcohol drinks to celebrate and share the joy with others, why our youngsters end up drinking this things every night or whenever meet thier friends in this festive season , hhmmmm
Unwanted things , Wanted day ...........
Title definition , Malaysian Tamil is one of sub ethnic from Malaysian Indians in whole. They also majority compare to other Malaysia Indian ethnic such as Malaysian Malayalee , Malaysian Telegu , and punjabi(even they not admit , lol ) . Tamils + Malayalee + Telegu + Punjabi = Malaysian Indians( A minority race in Malaysia ,just 7.6% from total Malaysian population ) . Malays are major race of Malaysia ( almost 63% from Malaysian total population ) . Today the topic only covers the Malaysian Tamils and Malays . In general both of this parties have many difference , from political power to population . But if look deep into their mentality , we can identify some similarities.
The most significant similarity which make me aware of this phenomena is , both , Malaysian Tamils and Malays have their own pride and ego as majority . As is say before , Malays are majority of Malaysian population , and Malaysian Tamils are majority within Malaysia Indian ethnic . This article basically will see how Malays show their ego as majority to other races in Malaysia such as Chinese and Indian ; Malaysia Tamils show their ego as majority to other Malaysian Indian ethnic , and identify the similarities.
Most visible example i can use as case study for this topic is SCHOOLs . First we look at Malays . The Sekolah Kebangasaan(SK) are claimed by Malays as a place to unite students from different races to build true MALAYSIANS . They encourage students from other races to join SK . Ya true, if student from different race study under one roof , it can build good understang among them . The hidden agenda of SK is to demonstrate "Ke-anggoggan Bahasa Melayu" . At the same time , Malays feel , they are majority , so other races must master their language(malay) and they do not have to care about learing other races language . If the Malays are really honest in building true MALAYSIANS through SK , they suppose include Mandarin( Major dialect of Malaysian Chinese ) , and Tamil ( Major dialect of Malaysia Indians) in the syllabus of the SK . Malays won't do that , because THE ARE MAJORITY , ego . Now we look at Tamil Schools( SJKT ) . The leaders of Malaysian Indians always stand up for rite of this schools ,they claim , this is the place to unite Malaysian Indians . Come on , it is not Indian School to unite the Indians, but it is just a "Tamil" School . It can be a place to unite Malaysian Tamils not Malaysian Indians . Why there are many Malaysia Indians prefer to send their child to SK rather than SJKT ? Are all Malaysia Indians are Malaysian Tamils ? no rite . For an example , just an example lol , as a Malayalee or Telegu , why i need send my son/daughter to TAMIL school to learn Tamil ?, its no my mother tongue what . Now you where is the failure of SJKT to unite the Malaysia Indians . Many Malaysian Indian leaders( most of them Tamils) aware of this problem , yet , they just close one eye to gain support of the majority( Malaysian Tamils ). If the Malaysian Tamils really honest in using SJKT as the place to unite the Malaysian Indians , they can include , Malayalem , and telegu in the syllabus of SJKT . They(Malaysian Tamils) won't do that ,simply because they are majority , they want other Indian ethnic learn their language(Tamil) , they do not care about other Malaysia Indian's mother tongue , ego .
Now maybe you star getting clear picture of similarities between Malays and Malaysian Tamils . Both of this group claim their self as uniting their country or race but fail to do it because of their hidden agenda and upholding their own mother tongue and ego as a Majority .If you have taffuntil now , ok let me help you . You must understand a east fact that , not all Malaysia Indians are Malaysian Tamil . There are other Malaysia Indians such as Malaysian Malayalee , Malaysian Telegu , or punjabe( im not sure , lol ) . Try to make this fact
clear and start read the article again .
Townguy will meet you all tomorrow with another case study to show more clearly the existance of this phenomena , stay tune with Townguy . time understanding this article
