berbudi bahasa budaya kita

When i read some news about PR status for foreigners in the newspaper, I remembered an incident happened when I was in Penang for a holiday trip. It happened at Penang Hill when we were queuing up for our turn to go onto the cable train.

Four of us queued behind a group of middle east tourist. The place was so small yet there are so many people. Then a middle-east-man in front push us away, in a very barbaric manner, and say "excuse" with a very bad manner. He let a person from his group at the back to line up in front of us.

At that time, four of us are really feels disgusted with their manners. We Malaysians in our own country, our own land being treated like a third class citizen. He should have asked politely, and for sure we will let her go in front.

Hello..... Mr Middle-East....
Malaysia is a free country. There are no Casta System in Malaysia. Even if there is, you still have to respect us as the locals in the country you visits. The way you act and talk disgrace your country's image in foreigner's eyes.

So, we should be well-mannered and respect other people no matter we are in our own place or visiting other countries.

Malaysia, berbudi bahasa budaya kita!
