PEOPLE OF THE EARTH !!!
WELCOME TO MALAYSIA!!!
Don't worry we are all STRANGErs here, I mean, "PENDATANGS", since we all came from that land where Adam first descended upon this earth and met Eve. (That is, if you believe in Adam & Eve)
HERE ARE THE HOUSE RULES !!!
1. Rukun Negara
2. The Federal Constitution
PLEASE TAKE A BIT OF TIME TO READ THE HOUSE RULES
HERE IN MALAYSIA, WE SPEAK "BAHASA MELAYU", OUR NATIONAL LANGUAGE
(You can read more about it in ARTICLE 152 of the Federal Constitution)
WE, MALAYSIANS,
SPEAK BAHASA MELAYU, DAY IN, DAY OUT,
ANYWHERE WITHIN THE TERRITORIAL BORDERS OF MALAYSIA.
WE SPEAK OUR SECOND LANGUAGE, ENGLISH,
TO FOREIGNERS.
(Because we don't expect them, neither do we force them, the FOREIGNERS, to be fluent in Bahasa Melayu)
IF YOU SPOKE ANY OTHER LANGUAGE BESIDE THESE TWO,
WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO FIND A TRANSLATOR FOR YOU,
IF WE KNEW WHAT LANGUAGE YOU ARE USING.
IN CASE THERE IS NO TRANSLATOR (which we doubt),
PLEASE USE SIGN LANGUAGE
WHILE YOU TRY TO LEARN BAHASA MELAYU OR ENGLISH
IN ORDER FOR US TO
UNDERSTAND
EACH OTHER,
THEREBY WE THEN CAN

Yes? Sorry?!! Can't hear you..?You are reading Article 152? Yes..??!!What about it??
Ah..!! You mean the sign boards? advertisements? The public displays?
Oh! yes! Good but RATHER EMBARRASSING question to us. It's our FAULT though, not yours!
Thank you for bringing it up, voicing it out!
Yes.. we do have PROBLEMS with our GOVERNMENT too. It seems, when it comes to language our leader via the so-called "1-Malaysia" concept are promoting many languages and does not really pay serious attention as they should toward Bahasa Melayu, our National Language. The Government is so CRAZY even to have vernacular education in this country, something NOT DONE by others anywhere in the world.
We don't know why but it seems strange that "1", in reality means "Many" by the "1-Malaysia" concept.
But hey! We are working very hard on it to get it through the leader's head!! Thank you very much for bringing that up!!!
Setengah orang kata PETRONAS merupakan "crown jewel" dunia korporat orang Melayu. Itu dulu, katanya.
Sekarang tidak lagi sejak orang No. 1 beria-ria benar membawa masuk orang yang dulunya tidak bayar balik pinjaman pembiayaan pengajian (biasiswa) Petronas sebagai salah seorang dari ahli lembaga Petronas. Mula-mula tu agak bisinglah dengan bantahan-bantahan. Sampai cerita tak bayar balik biasiswa tu timbul. Senyap sekejap. Tup-tup jadi juga orang itu sebagai ahli lembaga pengarah Petronas walaupun dibantah hebat dulu. Tengoklah Petronas sekarang ni, dah lain daripada yang dulu kan?
Petronas taksub dengan "1-Malaysia". Tengoklah iklan Petronas Primax kat TV tu. Sampai 4 bahasa you...!!! 1-Malaysia kita!!!
Banyak bayar duit iklan tu nak tunggu 4 Bahasa tu habis bercakap. Bila pulak iklan Primax tu nak tambah bahasa jawa, urdu, senoi etc etc lagi. Baru 1-Malaysia kita!!!
Iklan Petronas kat FlyFM Radio pagi-pagi sekarang ni dah "Dunkird (?), Gunstad?" pulak dah!! Dah berbahasa Jerman pulak!! 1-Malaysia kita!!!!
Dah betul-betul fasih ke Bahasa Kebangsaan sebelum nak Dunkird, Gunstad, Wo Chong Yi Primax, Unke Lake Sete Nate Primax tu?
