50 Years' of Independence

It has been 50 years since we attained independence.

But, what does it all mean? I suppose it is the independence we all share as Malaysians. The independence to walk the streets, the independece to shop at our free will, the independence to choose friends, the independence to socialise etc, etc.

I suppose these are the perks we enjoy of being Malaysians. And, I suppose the one thing that I cherish and relish so much about being in this country is the peace and harmony that we enjoy; Not just today, not just yesterday, not just tomorrow but everyday. And, 50 years have spelt this out all through.

We are Malaysians who are of different nationalities, race, beliefs, creed and even, skin color. But, we all share the same blood...the blood of unity! And, that is why the Malaysian flag carries the red stripe of unity.

So, continue to enjoy this independence for 50 more years and many more years to come.

Proud to be Malaysian!
