Happy Wesak Days & Mother's Day.....

Over the weekend, the celebration of Wesak (a.k.a. Vesak) Day coincides with Mother's Day......

"Be part of solution", urges Najib during the Wesak Day 2009 celebration in Fo Guang Shan Dong Zen Temple in Jenjarom.

Our newly appointed PM is taking his duty to foster a better relationship with the rakyat.

It is true that if you are not part of a solution, you are part of the problem.

I agree totally with him the moment he mentioned that "For instance, when an accident happens, they should help the victims without asking whether they are Chinese, Malay or Indian because they are all Malaysians in need of help...... I wonder sometimes in filling up forms we were being asked, "are you bumiputera or non-bumiputera?"

At times before I "checked the box in the form", I hesitated for a while, as I was born in Malaysia, brought up in Malaysia, singing negaraku all this while, I kinda considered myself as bumiputera lorr....

Whatever it is, I respected & love our very own unique Malaysian rojak culture very much. This is my country, my home...

Malaysia, my motherland... Happy Mother's Day....
& of course, to my own mother too......hehe...
