I myself have just come back to Malaysia over the holidays. News travels faster outside Malaysia than inside it. Unfortunately, undercover bloggers are still needed, now more than ever. So much for human rights and democracy! To the readers who still think Malaysia is at its golden age, you need only look outside our own borders to realise how much further we as a country need to go. Whether you choose to leave or stay with this knowledge is up to you - but for myself and many others, home is where the heart is. To those who choose not to care, our leaders may claim they do not need you. They may lock you away, or kick you out of the country, or silence you with threats of tear gas and chemicals. But your countrymen need you. Your neighbours, your family, your friends, your fellow citizens need you. And turning a blind eye is betrayal to these people. Ask not what you can do for your country, but what you can do for your countrymen. <strong>[ GhL ] :</strong><em> Hello again, chansey. Welcome back to Malaysia... sort of.
