I spent the most wonderful evening of the June holiday with my p sch gd
frenz. I muz say i enjoy it immensely, and being with u guys juz give me a
very warm and comfortable feeling...the feeling when u're with ur old pals.
and you guys are great people. though i might be a little diff from u guys
now, after drifting to s'pore for six years, we might have diff education
and stuff, and our language style a bit the different, my canto not tt
fluent now...but deep inside we are all the same, i feel. the flow of words
and feelings among us is natural.

the root. the root that binds us together. and i realise how much better i
can connect with them in soul as compared to with fellow s'porean
frenz..this is not to say that i don't like s'porean frenz...it's juz that
deep inside, we don't share the same root.
this root that connects malaysian chinese (those who speak chinese, not
those banana people). we have the common struggle in this piece of land. we
have the same destiny.and we are united. and it is juz a different kind of
feeling with s'porean chinese.

i am glad that i have not forgetten this group of pals, and they have not
forgotten me either. although we might have different paths now, people in
different colleges and different states, i believe that we can and we will
still meet up year after year.

a man who has lost touch with his root in this fast-paced and dynamic world
would be disillusioned. i am glad i still have this root in my heart, which
is cultivated by the love of my family and my friends here. and i am glad i
spent this june holiday immersing myself in my family and frenz love.
despite the various social and economic problems in m'sia, the people here,
the feeling, still would not change. and i will keep in my heart the m'sian
chinese values (at least along my frenz): positive, humour, friendship, yi
qi, struggle towards betterment, and take things in your stride and take
sufferings easy


wherever i go in the future, my heart and my root will still be here. and i
love malaysia, simply because i am a malaysian. (and it is pathetic to know
that i have friends in s'pore who do not love their country)
