Since early this year, the government campaign of "Budi Bahasa, Budaya Kita", which has been taking the airwave of our local media till now, has seen some results.
Thinking back on the realism of our Malaysian attitude, it's disheartening.
It's true that our advertising people are trying very hard to portray our Malaysian identity on print or electronic media, which in turn being bombarded and strongly debated in our parliament. Geez, I wonder what's the big huh hah? Isn't that what we are? I guess, Malaysian are ALWAYS in denial. That's a it too sad.
I am glad that people like
Yasmin Ahmad can contribute to the betterment of our society; for that matter, cater to a greater mission of correcting Malaysians' attitude by reflecting our "ugly" side in her work with the aid of mass media.
Let's us share the wish of most Malaysians to be more courteous when it comes to manners - Budi Bahasa, Budaya Kita (our manners, our culture).
