In just about few minutes Malaysia will be 49 years old. I wish all Malaysians peace, harmony and unity.

Malaysian National Anthem
Negara ku
Tanah tumpahnya darahku,
Rakyat hidup bersatu dan maju,
Rahmat bahagia tuhan kurniakan,
Raja kita selamat bertahta,
Rahmat bahagia tuhan kurniakan.
Raja kita selamat bertakhta.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

My country, my native land.
The people living united and progressive,
May God bestow blessing and happiness.
May our Ruler have a successful reign.
May God bestow blessing and happiness.

  1. Hi,
    I did not realise how much you valued Independence day, but does not the day look increasingly irrelevant? and I am not country specific in this comment!
    Still I applaud your courage and conviction!! Now you know where did the heart of gold come from?!

  2. Thanu: Terima Kasih

    Starry nights: Terima Kasih

    Madhavan Kutty: Even to this day, there is a joy in hearing Tunku Abdul Rahman shouting Merdeka( freedom) on the radio.. It makes you feel liberated.. that you are finally free.. Though Malaysia has changed so much in the last 20 years and fanatism is showing the ugly head..it is still Keranamu Malaysia, for what I am..

    Rocksea: Not bad… terima Kasih

    Hill Grand mom: Good to see you around and Terima Kasih
