Differences among us?

“Silky colored, will you love me? Silky colored will you leave me? Silky colored indecision? Silky colored cause I’m Asian?” So what? I’m Asian..then?
The title frankly referred to one of the respective Malaysian rock band’s song as it became hits song mostly for teenagers around 1999 and at the beginning of the new millennium. The song lyric might called us to withstand the pressure of a person who is in love to another (particularly a girl) but sadly snubbed by the girl just because he’s an Asian. Or the answer for that might remain indecision or unanswered. Although it’s clearly brought us to view the message of the lyric which is specifically about racism, or even in general, the difference among us?
What is racism? Why does it exists? What is so special for being white, black or eventually a colored person? Why there is a privilege for creating such differences? Maybe the right question towards this is what is the differences exist among us? Why must there are differences among us? What do we get for being extremely proud of our own race? Here in our beloved country Malaysia, I’d heard some opinions from my own kind (I am a Malay) defining to what is still happen today and believe me they still feel that they are the one who born with supremacy which linked them to be recognized a rather different than anyone else or to be precise, SPECIAL. Much more annoying, intolerable and yet distracting is when the person says “ We are Javanese, we have huge heritages COMPARING to others in this region,” some other conversations “Our tribes are always unite, not all the outsiders are good for us, if anything it’s easier to deal with our kind” or in their native tongue “Puok-puok kito tokke pecoh, set luar buke leh jadi saen kito blako, kalu ado gapo-gapo mudoh lagi ngan set-set kito ”, another is “We’re the Syed’s and Sharifah’s, it wouldn’t be appropriate to see we mix around other ordinary people. Evenmore if we married to them.” The rest I’d been heard “Kalau orang Kelantan aku reverse” simply the sound means to “I wouldn’t go if he/she is a Kelantanese.
Here in Malaysia three ethnic majorities Malay, Chinese and India are the races comprised as well as others like Dayaks, Kadazan-Dusun etc where mostly remain at the East side of the country. Multi-racial, multi-culture, multi-religion and likewise multi-thoughts and faith which essentially contributing to many consequences. Like this report on March 26th 2006, New Straits Times ran a survey related to the issue. This is one of the finding of telephone survey by New Straits Times on 1200 respondents which confirm that racism runs deep in Malaysia.
Negative stereotyping is well entrenched:
• 58 percent of Malays, 63 percent of Chinese and 43 percent of Indians polled agreed that Malays are generally lazy.
• 78 percent of Malays, 60 percent of Chinese and 40 percent of Indians think the Chinese are greedy.
• 60 percent of Malays, 58 percent of Chinese and 20 percent of Indians believe that Indians cannot be trusted
A perfect fact which the syndrome is spectacularly spreading differences year by year. The country are going to be 53rd years achieving its independence and this is what is still happening. With the leaders idea towards a One Malaysia (1 Malaysia) mission, we might gonna see that as the way to combat and free us from this differences or it’ll be just another political initiative run by the politician in order to presume a good looking country so that the investors would come and they can project their further agenda?
Globally I would like to bring you this issue which I believe racism is still exists. As well as some which much more extreme and rather expand themselves towards political and policies. Just looking through a scenario which consciously or unconsciously happened here in the country yet trying to see WHY these do exists, believe me until now. Hence, the more we look through we are actually listing it in much well organize as like race-based political parties, the supremacy of a particular race and much extreme self-recognizing as the chosen race to lead the world? Some even said that they are the people chosen by God to lead the world and humanity. Further, they also consider other races as slaves or animal which can be easily being wipe out or invaded.
A popular Quran quote:
"O Mankind! Most certainly, it is We( God almighty) who have created you all from a single (pair) of a male and a female, And it is we who Have made you into Nations and tribes, That ye may recognize each other (Not that ye may despise each other). Verily, the noblest of you In the sight of Allah Is (he who is) the most Righteous of you."
Holy Quran 49:13
"And mankind is naught but a single nation."
Holy Quran 2:213




Racism is just another issue. The thing that we are talking about might quite refer to as a broader or in a bigger scope. We might didn’t realize that if we think globally; differences like race, religion, culture, educational background, countries, states, income, social status, skin colors and even genders are everything which brought and still bringing us into the state of differences. Talking about differences, some governments in this world are, were, or used to fight of equality and similarities within human rights into global intention but still and remaining still dividing its own people by various approach either openly or subliminally thus contrary to what they projected and still projecting through their media to spread their agenda on the unity of every ethnics live in the country as well as other equalities and rights. If you could see the thing in the media which sorely about things that always remain great and the best all about them as others against them will be projected as extremist and much terrible perhaps; terrorist. Most of the time if we recognize everyone in us with differences there’s always conflict and collision between us either we realized or not. But still it is up to us to keep it remains or else we should just forget the differences and we unite as one and keep the peace remain at the most in this world. But the things happen here even back to years and years before are still remaining the same. The people are still forming their race based political party, hatred towards others still running deep, people keep dividing themselves by showing their social status, their wealth and things they had, working class people paying the tax as the upper class unlikely towards it, the middle income are keep working hard to keep them out of poverty and the poor ones which keep getting poorer to remain scaring those people in the working class and the middle income to avoid being like them. How far can the ideas and taglines promotes by the politicians are really actually at least to see this thing and to overcome it? There were a lot of efforts from the government to overcome those in the poor range but from years to years we still could watch a TV program which shows us the life difficulties faced by the poor ones and the anguish which still exists in a so called developed country. Are the ideas will be only remain as their political propaganda tool just to ensure all the cash flow into the country? Is that shows to us that this people who live in poverty are actually being forced to play their role in ensure that people will be scared to be like them. Instead of races and bloodline, the most effective way to divide people here is the social status. Which through materialism we keep being divided and so that we keep indirectly or directly fighting with each other to contribute many complications and even greater a war.

It is just like the system. What system? “Divide and rule”; Yes a system which used by the British during colonialism era is not only in our country but partly most from the Commonwealth region thus the reason are mostly because to reduce the awareness of the local native about their rights in their own land so that they could straight get their hands to all resources the colony had. The differences are on the implementation and using ethnicity point. But this uncivilized approach are actually still running in modern government which reasons behind that could be some sort of hidden agenda or planned in secrecy. A person who could rationally think about what is really going on in our world might ask the same question like me: Why is this happen? Who did plan for this to be happened?
To be continue.., EnshaAllah

Gender Conflict = Gays, Lesbians and Shemales, in our Universities.

An issue with many cases risen for so long time ago and most of them resulting into an extremely unhealthy social environment which partly become one of main contributor to STD (Sexual Transmitting Disease) agent and also other types of contraries to a normal society.
The first question, where does this thing come from? A broken family? Broken home? Peer pressure? Or even precise to be questioned here is; how does this gender conflict feeling come out from a person although she/he was a normal person before turning into a gay, bisexual, Lesbos and even shemales.

Taken from one of the references, the holy Qurans which condemns directly upon an abnormal intercourse has taken to where this terrifying thing shouldn’t be happen into our Muslim society widely as well as here in Malaysia.
According to the Old Testament, the Koran, the people of Lot were destroyed because they engaged in homosexual behavior and were unrepenting and un accepting of God's admonishment (Holy Bible, Genesis chapter 13, 14, 18, 19; Koran 7:80-84; 4:16 etc)
In the book of Romans, in the Bible [New Testament], Paul states:
"Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error (Romans 1:22-27)."
There are five references in the Qur'an which have been cited as referring to gay and lesbian behavior. Some obviously deal with effeminate men and "masculine women." The two main references to homosexual behavior are:

"We also sent Lut : He said to his people : "Do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you? For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds." Qur'an 7:80-81

"What! Of all creatures do ye come unto the males, and leave the wives your Lord created for you? Nay, but ye are forward folk." Qur'an 26:165

Both references relate to gay sexual activities; lesbian practices are not mentioned in the Qur'an.

Lut is referred to as "Lot" in the Hebrew Scriptures. This passage is an apparent reference to the activities at Sodom and Gamorah. It seems to imply that there was no homosexual behavior before it first appeared in Sodom. This is a uniquely Islamic concept; it does not appear in Jewish or Christian beliefs. The passage also links the sin of Sodom (the reason for its destruction) to homosexuality.That linkage is contradicted by other verses in the Hebrew Scriptures.

The Hadith and homosexuality: The Hadith are collections of sayings attributed to Muhammad. Many Hadiths (ahadith) discuss liwat (sexual intercourse between males). Two examples are:

"When a man mounts another man, the throne of God shakes."

"Kill the one that is doing it and also kill the one that it is being done to." (in reference to the active and passive partners in gay sexual intercourse)

There is at least one mention of lesbian behavior mentioned in the Hadith: "Sihaq (lesbian sexual activity) of women is zina (illegitimate sexual intercourse) among them."

Traditionalist orthodox Muslims generally claim that the Hadith literature contains the authentic sayings of Muhammad. Many liberal Muslims doubt their authenticity. The latter might point out that during the times of the first Caliphs, Muslims did not know what to do with individuals guilty of "liwat/lutiyya". No sahabi (companion) of Muhammad could quote a saying or decision of Muhammad relating to this question.


I was in a casual conversation with three university students ;which I reluctantly gonna put their names in this post at a coffee house somewhere in Selangor a night before the Christmas Eve. One of them is a girl. Well for everybody’s information those were a normal person and what I’m gonna say here are their experience they want share with me.
“Aku last sem ada sorang roommate, malas nak sebut nama; tapi yang ni lah yang jadi, dia sikit-sikit cakap kat aku, aku serius tak tahan tengok ko bukak baju, seksi siot, aku macam perasan yang mamat ni lain macam sikit. Siap penah sekali tu aku terjaga dari tido, dia tido sekatil ngan aku siap peluk aku lagi, aku menggelabah lah siap sepak dia lagi” said the first guy.
“Penah la jugak ada sorang penkid ni ushar-ushar aku,.. siap mintak number telefon aku lagi, memang aku tak kasi, tapi entah macam ne satu hari tu dia tak abes-abes cuba ajak aku berborak, tapi aku buat tak tau,.ada time tu dia cakap aku pun ada k**** la, ko nak check ke?” said the girl.

“Universiti sekarang ni buatkan kita takut hilang kemuliaan dia sebagai tempat tutut ilmu, dalam banyak-banyak student yang betul-betul nak belajar ada jugak yang nak jadikan universiti ni macam tepi jalan, tak kisah kalau nak bergaya, nak tunjuk awak tu sape, nak tarik perhatian orang la, tapi kalau dah tak terkawal, macam sekarang yang kita Nampak, itu la jadinya.”
In bigger scope I just couldn’t come with any conclusions towards this matter. From those long conversations with them, there are funny stories and not forgot to say horrifying one. I just love to see all the television forums, newspapers and much more openly the internet had discussed this matter but yet haven’t see any explanation to get this thing real so that people could really see this and think. They had been so many of them, that even one day if there’s an NGO which fight for their rights to remain in this Muslim majority country.
Thus, these wrecked community had openly showing themselves in public and shouting their rights when a vocalist from a popular local Indie band stated his view openly against those community; Thus a terminology vastly spread which also known as homophobic breaks through in our society. If there is they responded much like those in western countries although there weren’t such a law which recognized their claims. Are they about already receiving such a positions to gain such rights like given to those in the west? If there is then, will there be a shemale minister or MP for the next incoming years?

‘Love is like war, easy to start, difficult to end, impossible to forget’. On 4th April 2010, someone text me late in the afternoon for such a quote which rather unknown by me. I was terribly mismanage my time that day as I went out to see peoples for particular business, leaving out some more unfinished task given by the boss. I mean, “Gosh! I wish I was like other normal person on that day enjoying the casual weekends.”
Talking about love, there’s a song by Michael Buble which I seldom listen to it but yet the quote sent by the person to my cell phone really had attracted me to listen to it. The song lyrics which really makes me enjoy to it:
L is for the way you Look at me,
O is for the only One I see,
V is Very very extraordinary,
E is Evenmore than anyone that you adore.




The song, maybe helps us to define the way we see what is Love all about. Lovers, adoring, tenderness and care to someone. We humans are naturally born for that. It’s either the way we show or we give it to anyone or anything that we want, and even how we fall in love to someone and who knows, that’ll really gonna change our world.
On that quote, there’s an obvious truth in it. When we are in love to someone, all the wonderful dreams just come out which we might do even a severe sacrifice just to ensure those dreams come true. Some of us derived to lost of what we call a sacrifice in the name of love.
To me the war in love, are the egos we face up, building a mutual understanding with the partner and give and take. Once the challenge done, it’ll do remain impossible to forget the person we love.
To love is to share, completing each other, ease things together, an openly acceptance to every feature of the companion and amaze the person. It’s not just the three words but to commit with all the heart and whatever it takes.
No matter how you look like, who you are or what people say about you, love is a well deserve to everyone.
