AFTERMATH…..
wow….this strike thingy has caused more damage than what i’ve expected…. other than external wound, it has also caused internal bleeding in our community of malaysians in nizhny novgorod…. the worst case senario?? tragedy of 13th may might happen again…
i do not mean to provoke anymore fuss….but just thought that i would comment some things before this thing ends…wouldn’t wanna miss the fun would i??
before anything else, please read the post by the author posted on the buletin board in friendster and some comments by others…
Strike- a discourse to ponder (for Malaysians in Nizhniy Novgorod only)
Strike is on for tomorrow. The agenda is that we
don’t go to classes tomorrow, assemble at
1 p.m.
at the Dean’s office and demand for military post
situated within the perimeter of our hostels.
We Malaysian people are peaceful farts that we
are so reluctant to lose and sacrifice what we own.
For men, this is maybe a great chance for holiday.
For ladies, they don’t want to miss class.
And I know which among the three major races of
Malaysian community who will not support the
strike.
Although I do think that not going to class is a bad
idea, but the majority chose not going to class,
thus we must respect their decision on this matter.
Lately, students in
France
stroke on the streets
protesting their government decisions on the new
labor law. The government then changed the bill.
Among the sacrifice made to change the
government’s decision were missing classes,
peaceful demonstrations, memoranda etc. This
shows the student power cannot be
underestimated.
The similar case should happen here, but it’s just
that we demand for our safety and security, which
is one of human’s basic rights! But we are so
reluctant to go to fight for our rights?! Are we going
to wait for someone to get killed only to go for
strike?! If this is so right, we Malaysians are
indeed so cowards, I should say.
The beating and the killing are not enough to make
these reluctant people demand their rights. They
are so nerd-like, academic-oriented students who
have nothing else in their lives to fight for. They will
just study, work, get a lot of money, breed, and
then die, if they may graduate out of Nizhniy
Novgorod alive!
We should support our own rights, not turning
away from it. Even if we fail, we feel better for
ourselves inside out. But if we succeed, we
deserve the security so much, that even the
reluctant nerds would get all the benefits.
But let’s make the strike peaceful. This is what
Islam thought us. We should not do riots, we
should not make anymore problems. If we do, we
are no better than the uncivilized hooligans. We
have our planned goals, go to the Dean’s, demand
and that’s all!
Christie: Hope every malaysian sit on the same
boat..those can go to dean just go..those cant,
dun go to class for a support..okie? n pls dun
make races issue here..so upset about this…too
sarcastic..
Kochi
: Don’t make races an issue here,and i knew
who’re there for the strike coz i went there too,and
to the author-you were there too……think about it!
Mohan: I might or might not know who wrote this.
Im just happy that everything went on peacefully
there in the dean office.But to to the author, plz
dun talk bout race here.So let me tell you
sumthing,think before you write.People might be
keepin quiet this time when you talk bout races
but not the next time(that includes me).
Eugene Sharma: A simple sorry WILL NOT
CURE THE SITUATION.You are just lucky that we
are open minded enough to let this pass.The
words that you use are more volatile than any
known form of elements.So beware of how you
use the mass media.Remember the May 13th
incident?It all happened because of one
comment.I dont think that at that point,a sorry
from the perpetrator would have helped.SO MIND
YOUR WORDS,HOW YOU USE THE
MEDIA.AND THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A
SECOND TIME!OR SORRY.CAN YOU SAY
SORRY AFTER KILLING YOUR PATIENT?Making
such racist issues make you no different from the
skinheads.
Clarissa:WHAT THE ****…..!!!!!!
the latest "safety issue" in NizhnyNovgorod is not
yet settle, and here YOU’RE bringing up
malaysia
’s ‘race and religion’ issue?????!!!!!!!
yea..great!!! thank you so much!!!!!
ME: we all do what we think is right… of course most of the people think that we should fight for our safety here in this foriegn country. fine. but you shouldn’t critisize those that refuse to think like you. by doing this, you are violating their human rights as well. of course you might think that safety is more important than education in this matter, but we all have our own weigh about things. and you should repect that. and you definitely should not bring out the race thingy…you have been living in Malaysia for so long for goodness sake…. please do not insult ur own intellegence by setting up a trap and fall into it yourself….
this is the second post by the author, apologizing…
My latest bulletin posted on strike is thought to
play race issues. I do offer my wholehearted
apologies for that. It won’t happen again!
I was wrong on that because one guy came to me
and not showing support for it and I judged the
whole race for that. That is indeed my foolishness
and stupidity. I again offer my apologies!
ME: man, you should have stopped here…but NOOOOOO……………….because you are to egoistic to admit your mistake, you HAVE to post the next post….
"I wrote a discourse on strike last few days. Thank
God, we got what we demanded, at least for the
time being. The struggle was not in vain, those
who supported and those who didn’t, all get the
benefit.
I received many messages and bulletins telling
that my discourse sounded racist. Well, I agree, it
sounded racist. Surely, that was my honest
mistake, I was really not proud of it. I offered my
wholehearted apologies and some of them
accepted.
Some people may want to relate the racist thing
with Islam. Let’s not get started on that because
you know how harsh the retaliation would be.
Believe me, the racism has nothing to do with
Islam, even Islam forbade any kinds of racism, be
it religious racism or ethnic racism. I seek
repentance and forgiveness from Allah for my
mistakes.
(i honestly think that you should have stopped here…..but……)
But let us ponder a little bit, was I the only one
who was racist here? Let me pinpoint some things
out:
Face it, most of us hate the Russians, either their
language, their culture, the way they work, and the
country itself. We can’t even mix well with the
Russians. Even when the Russians bragged about
their famous ancestors who were poets or
scientists, we expressed the look of contempt.
If the Russian hooligans keep beating us, that
does not mean that all of the Russians would want
to beat us. We always mistakenly judge a whole
race only by judging some of their minority, and so
was I. Isn’t this racist enough?
Now let’s go to the black Africans among us.
Some of them are not really clever, some of them
are really lazy. But we tend to avoid them and
judge them all the same, that all the black are
stupid. Even if one of them showed their
cleverness, we would say “That negro is just
showing off”. If they would get a better mark in
tests we say that they are cheating when they
obviously didn’t. Isn’t this racist enough?
Even among us Malays, Chinese and Indians, we
also tend to be racist to each other, at least
quietly. Although this is very rare, the Malays
might talk racist things about Chinese and Indians.
The others too may backstab the Malays using
their own mother tongue so that the Malays
couldn’t understand (at first I doubted this, but then
I found out it was true). Isn’t this racist enough?
Let me stress that only some of us are racist, but
the others are good Malaysians. Although some of
us are racist so quietly and discretely, will that
make things any better? The kind of minor racism
is expressed by the isolation among us. We can’t
get along with the Russians or the black Africans.
Even some of us Malaysians also tend to be
isolated from each other according to races, either
in class, when doing things, hanging out and so on.
I admire the people in the West because they can
get along with each other, regardless of whatever
their races and religions are, whether they are
whites or blacks. That is the ideal community we
should create. I have condemned myself on being
racist, so now, let’s abolish racism together, shall
we?"
Eugene Sharma: Dude,if your in the "RACIST"
boat.Please do not try to provide excuses and
proof to substantiate that all of us are also
racist.There is a difference between racism and
contempt.We never hated the Russians.We are
just very upset that they cannot see us as equals
eventhough we have been very peaceful and
friendly from the start.The few students( I dont
know who) who "expressed the look of contempt"
are not racist too.They are just not proud of the
russian system of educations.And for gods sake(or
whoever you pray to) there is no such thing as
a "Black African".If you got your facts right,nature
can never produce anything of pure black.They are
all regarded as africans.I admire those in the
East,for eventhough you have erred the 2nd
time,we still are ready to forgive
ME: i noticed you like to use the word "we" instead of "me"….are u trying to represent the thought of all malaysian?? because this is not what "all of us " are thinking.you are too subjective thinking everyone thinks the same way as you….not "all " of us hate russia, russians, and their culture. i like working with some of my russian teachers actually, esp my anatomy teacher. and not "all" of us think that the africans are like what you u’ve described…. don let them see these posts….or they would think "all "malaysians are stupid…. you would be the one to blame FOR SURE…… it’s funny that you ädmire the west for being non racist?? are u kidding me??? we are in the WEST now la dear….see what they have done to us….needless to say other WESTERN countries…. few years ago they were just admiring us for being able to live together harmonously even tho we are of diff races….. BUT NOW YOU ARE SAYING OTHERWISE……hmmm…..a word from a government scholar…not bad….
well, about the backstabbing with mother tongue….i have to say…: siapa yang makan cili, dia yang rasa pedasnya…. i am proud to know an extra language, but that doesn’t mean i will backstab you at your back. do not assume everyone do the same act as u…. just because you do not understand us, that doesn’t give you the right to insult our whole race. we just feel comfortable speaking our own mother tongue, just like you prefer to speak yours…if you want to speak only YOUR mother tongue in front of you, that is another human rights that you have taken away from us, isn’t it??
DUE TO SAMBUTAN HANGAT FROM MANY PEOPLE, THE AUTHOR DECIDED TO APOLOGIZE…AGAIN…..
SUBJECT:People just love exaggerating, don’t they?
This is the third time I am writing an apology
bulletin, and I shall end at this point of apologizing,
for offering apologies thrice when people won’t
accept my apologies are considered exaggerating.
And for those who exaggerated in attacking me,
calling me a racist when apparently I am not a
racist anymore are those who likes to exaggerate
and make nothing better for both aggravated party
and apologizing party. I am not one of them.
I am not defending my facts or bulletin here
although I can see all the twists which has been
made by someone who openly called me racist.
Either my English is too bad that no one could
understand or the truth is twisted and it’s used for
exaggerating in attacking me.
I am not defending anymore because I know
however clever I could do it, those who won’t
accept my apologies will still not accept my
apologies. Whatever truth or apologies I write will
make no difference to them. They enjoy the
pleasure of attacking me, and, I have to admit,
they are winning.
And a word for those who exaggerate, while it is
very improper for a Malay Muslim like me to
criticize people, it is very proper for others to
criticize me and talking false things about my
religion. You think you are so privileged, but I just
don’t think so.
Remember the Microsoft Word with the pictures of
plane crashing the
Twin
Towers
, the Wingding
stuff? The verse you took never exists in the Koran
and Muslims feel so bad about that. I believe that
was your honest mistake and this time I made
mine one too. We call it even now?
I am calling for anti-racism but sadly some people
just love attacking people. Thus, if anyone wants
to indulge oneself by attacking me and humiliating
me, they are welcomed to do so. But for the last, I
am really sorry for the inconvenience, discomfort,
unhappiness that I brought
ME: dear, author, you are a great person. a person of his own opinion and dares to voice it out. i believe someday, you will be a great politician, and your name would be written in sejarah text book…someday, in one way or another….
btw, do you realise that you are contradicting your points in your 2nd and 3rd post?? first you admit you are being racist….then u say u are not…
and from what i see, nobody brings out the issue of your religion, what more to criticize it and feel "privialged "about that?? — there is a saying in chinese; look down on yourself and you will be looked down by others… my advice is, be proud of who you are, and what you belief…..but acknowledge your mistakes, and correct them..
anyway, as a friend, my advice to you is once you have made a mistake, be a man and admit it yourself. do not bring up your whole race to back you up… each person has his own individuality and thoughts. do not expect all people with the same proportion of melanin to have their brain working in the same way.i believe not everyone of your race think like you, as i think it is true for mine…..
this post is not meant to attack you, humiliate you in anyway. just need you to realise your own mistakes so that the next time i see your name appear in the sejarah book, you won’t be the one causing the breakdown of our unity as Malaysians
