Selamat Hari Merdeka!!!
Malaysia's Independence Day is almost upon us and we are once again reminded to be grateful to our nation's forefathers whom have laboured so hard to free our country from the colonisation of the British or are we?
I don't know about you but the first thought that occured to me when a colleague reminded me about the upcoming Merdeka Day was that "Yes! It falls on a Thursday. I only need to take 1 day leave and I'll have a long weekend of 4 days!" ;P
I am also sad to say, the high level of unpatriotism is not restricted to me alone; my sentiments were shared amongst all my friends and colleagues as well. Is that sad or what?
And who's fault is it? Who should we point the finger to for the declining level of patriotism amongst the younger generation? Shouldn't Merdeka mean more to Malaysians rather than just another national holiday?
Well, I'll just do my part and hang a national flag at my window. =P

Go watch the National Day parade. It may make you feel better for being a unpatriotic Malaysian.
