44 years ago,a parade in Singapore celebrating the forming of Malaysia.But in this day,44 years ago,in 1963,Malaysia was born.With the merging of Malaya,Sabah,Sarawak and Singapore.The dreams of Tunku and millions of people on a Happy Malaysia came true.
Sadly,what happened next was unpredictable.Singapore pulled out 2 years soon after that and followed by the 513 incident that crushed the nation in 1969,history was rewritten.
13 States and 3 Federal Territories of Malaysia
How many people actually remember this day?The day when Malaysia was really formed,the real independance day for Sabah and Sarawak and Malaysia.
31 August is just the independance for the then Federation of Malaya(Peninsular Malaysia).Is it true to marginalise the rights of Sabah and Sarawak to celebrate the actual independance day of theirs?Why isn't the government placing Hari Malaysia as the nation's main celebration event?Do we still remember the true Malaysian spirit that hold us together?Do we still hold on with spirit of Constitution and Social Contract?
Wayang kulit show that will be replayed year by year.
After 50 years of independance and 44 years after the forming of Malaysia.Racial issues and discrimanations still rule the country harshly.Our mentality remains the same,despite the skyscrappers and buildings that was built more and more every year.As I always said-"First class facility,but third class mentality".How can we become an advance nation on 2020 like that?
Jalur Gemilang makes me proud,sometimes.
Malaysia is for Malaysian.Malaysia is our home,present and forever.Remember the spirit of September 16.
Selamat Hari Malaysia.

Sabah and Sarawak is always the second child of the country 'Malaysia'. It is a strange phenomena but it's true nonetheless. Hope this improves soon.
