The Kuala Lumpur Traveler

I heard over the radio this morning that the BN Government has agreed to make September 16 as Malaysia Day. It was also mentioned that this year’s Malaysia Day will be celebrated sometime in October (I can’t remember the date) in Sabah (I think, or was it Sarawak?) because September 16 this year falls in the fasting month. Ha ha ha…. what a reasoning.

This announcement is yet another moral victory for Pakatan Rakyat. I hope Pakatan Rakyat will keep coming up with more good ideas and let the BN Government copy the ideas so that the people can see how this present government actually has no intention of giving what the people wants out of their own thinking heads. Remember the extra maternity leave? That was copied from Pakatan Rakyat’s Kelantan Government. The recent free eletricity was copied from Pakatan Rakyat’s Selangor Government free water… and many more.

And today, the same BN Government proudly announced 10 cent reduction in petrol price and at the same time asked the businesses to reduce prices of the other items…. what a nonsense.

Updated: According to Bernama here, the day is only to be celebrated in Sabah and Sarawak only. Ironically… the same news source also quoted:

In his speech, he said the cabinet had agreed to change the Malaysia independence day celebration to the Malaysia day celebration as it would be more significance to Sabah and Sarawak which joined the federation in 1963

I am confused by them.
