Indians The Beggars And Chinese The Prostitutes

February 4th, 2010 | Category: Politics and Social Issues

Yup, Datuk Nasir Safar said our grandfather and grandmothers are beggars and prostitutes. I don’t want to sound all racist here but according to our high school history book, the reason the British brought us (Chinese and Indians) into Malaya is because a group of people refuses to work, right? I think Frank Swettenham or a Residen in Perak said something about them not wanting to work. Probably tin mining is too tough, tapping rubber trees is too tough, building the railways is too tough, they are mostly uneducated therefore can’t work as clerks which is why the British brought in so many English educated people from a country in south asia into Malaya as clerks.

Oh man, please read before you open your mouth or distort the web with your below par rants.
Blaming the Malays for bringing in Indians and Chinese?? Goodness. Dont drag my ancestors into this. Our Indian forefathers came because of Britishes divide n rule policy. Thats what they did everywhere. Dont tell me you blame the Malays too for what happened in another country??
The population fired up after our ancestors came in. Before that the Malays as the land owner do not have to and do not need to do labour work. BTW, I wish the Britishes choose the Indians to do the mining. We could be controlling the economy now..wishful thinking eh

You have reading disability? I am quoting from our high school history books. It says the BRITISH brought the Indians and Chinese into Malaya to work as Clerks and Coolie. BRITISH! Seriously, open up your eyes and read twice.

You appear to have a profound dislike for the Chinese from the way
you wrote about them, why? And who are you to tell them to leave?
And you Namitha, will you also read before you open your own big mouth? Is it not stated in the second sentence that it was the British who brought the Chinese and the Indians to this country?
Haha, you ‘wish the Britishes choose’ the Indians to do the mining! ‘We could be controlling the economy now” See, you are jealous of the success of the Chinese!
Not all rich Chinese forefathers worked in the mines, many worked as tappers alike your Indian forefathers and yet they made it rich. Why don’t you do a survey and find out why? There are still many descendants of rubber tappers whose forefathers worked alongside the Indians in the plantations and who made it rich, very very rich!
The difference between the rich Chinese and the rich Indians is that, the Chinese would help the poor ones in their community. Many of them work seven days a week and do not take leave to attend funerals of distant relatives, birthdays,celebrations of their Gods etc.
The Chinese do not hang around in Malaysia only but are seeking their fortune in China and soon this generation of Chinese will make it rich too and thirty years from now, you are going to envy the Chinese again. Why don’t you pack your bags and leave for China to seek your fortune too?
I am normally not critical of the low standard of English of Malaysians because they no longer get English medium of instructions in school. I am shocked to be able to count off hand at least six mistakes in your comment. You, who condemn another person’s writing as that of “below par rant”, I would expect excellent English from you!
Shame on you!
Let me whisper this to you ‘ I have Malay blood in me!’

Yeah, he seemed to be hating the chinese for no reason, probably because he went after a few Chinese chick and was rejected. An Indian friend of mine was so pissed and called Chinese ‘racist’ when they rejected him. Let him be, I don’t hate Indians, I’ll channel my own energy to something more useful.

Oral Dude, please please try to see the bigger picture. I have given up on Admin (and succumb to my thoughts tht he is lacking a general understanding of common sense) when i saw the admin’s intelligent theory regarding Cina chicks rejected me. Unless you think im lesbian.
1.This is no English class. And im not sure why would you expect excellent english from me when its not even my mother tongue. Aiya, i detected more than 6 mistakes. Satisfied?
2.‘Below par’ is referring to admin’s lack of capacity in comprehending/swallowing a big chunk of what i wrote in his self-indulgence blog. To open an issue like this on the web, please back up your writings with good comebacks.
3.Do you not understand satire? Perhaps mine was too poor for you to notice. Wishful thinking will always remain wishful thinking. Thats it.
4.I do not and will not condemn those hard working Chinese or Indians or Malays. My absolute disgust is thrown at ppl like Admin.
5.You think i have profound dislike for Chinese? Dude, this Admin is a Chinese bloke. Of course la i have to address my bigotry response towards his race. If he was Indian, my punch would have been the same.
6.Admin, do highlight an Indian Malaysian name? Hahaha …I have no clue what you talking about man. Gimme an example at least.
7.Im so English educated? Speaking English is English educated?? Goodness, a product of Sek Kebangsaan from a village in Kelantan la.
8.You are Malay. So?

Anyways, it has been fun Admin. I shall try not to question my 20 years old tender brain cells why you write such serious issues when you clearly lack understanding on how to become msian ) .. Read the Constitution please.
Adios and have a good day!

I can tell right away that you are an Indian girl but to somebody who is from a Chinese school, he won’t be able to do so, not that he lacks common sense. He did not think that you were a lesbian for he did not realise that you are a female. Tell me which sex these people belong to: ah chiow, ah hoo, mong ling, hoay toot.
I bet your bottom dollar you cannot get your common sense right when guessing the abovementioned name.So that places you in the same intelligent level as him.
Since you acted so smart, you should also be able to deliver quality pieces not one of below par. My satire is dry too.
We may feel that the other person’s writing is not good enough but there are other people who in turn feel that ours is also not good enough, so it is best not to be over critical of another person. Do not belittle another for what goes around comes around. You will also meet your match.
So your bigotry has to be aimed at the Chinese cos the Admin bloke happens to be a Chinese and if he happens to be an Indian, you would have attacked him as well? Now, there are many Indians in Malaysia today (Raja Petra’ blog) whom you can direct your same punches at. I want to see you do it. There are also many Malays in that blog who surely differ from you.
Who said you are English educated. I said that I am English educated. You cannot be English educated unless you went to an International School and then your style of writing would be either very British or American. Yours is very Malaysian.You are 20 years old and there is no more English medium schools. I was a product of one. See, you also lack common sense, ie no one in her right mind would say you are an English educated person just because you speak English and you should not speak English but BM at all time to show all of us how to be a Malaysian.
Just to remind you that many Chinese are of Malay origin (many speak Malay only) and we are Malaysians without you teaching us to learn how to be a Malaysian. Admin’s mother’s mother’s mother’s are local, my mother’s mother’s mother’s mother’s mother was a local Malay woman.Am i supposed to be grateful to be classified as a non bumiputera and be sidelined by Malaysians whose ancestors arrived after my male ancestor married my mother’s mother’s mother’s mother’s mother? I know no other land, know not a word of Mandarin, never set foot on Chinese soil, no family ties in China, my grandmother practised the Malay culture etc. It is sad. Being a full fledged Malaysian is not about race but about religion. Now who lacks understanding.
Yes, make it fun and we have fun, no ill feelings. We are all Malaysians!
Bye….

Seeing this thing going on though it’s been a year ago… I can only ask a question… what species are all 3 of you? we’re all Homo Sapiens Sapiens which means humans… And what is the meaning of race? Is it the genetic buildup of different subspecies in humanity? or is it the genetic buildup which creates variations of different skin colour and certain minor bodily functions like body hair and adaptability to UV rays which makes you near immune to skin cancer? We are all the same… Race plays no matter… I know this silly argument is about our forefathers, history and stuff… But it all comes back down to us… as quoted by George Santayana, “Those who ignore history will surely repeat it again” The hostility between humans of different backgrounds, culture and technically skin colour is the same mistake as what humans of the past have done… Come on, they’d kill just because you’re a different skin colour… But we can still remove that hostile feeling and prejudice we have towards other cultures…
anyway, PEACE!
