It has been how many years since Malaysia was formed, still some people is not sensible enough about the existence of Sabah or Sarawak in "Malaysia" itself. This people thought that Sabah is just another country or certainly not part of Malaysia..I wonder why and what make they think that way? I wonder if it all began from school where you learn History of Malaysia, Asia and World? I wonder if there have some kind of brain-wash-program-seminar in Peninsular Malaysia that made them thinking Sabah is not part of Malaysia..
I usually don't mind if I get this from someone that I don't really know...unfortunately I got this from someone who should have knew about it as I'm her colleague...I've been working with her for over a year....been talking about Sabah (culture, community, life style and etc) with her...I'm not blaming her nor not happy with that..I'm just curious that how this idea or way of thinking exist within Malaysian community...
It began from a text message last night..I was working in the office and I received a text message from her as follow...
"Wei...U hv any frenz back in Sabah ah who r looking 4 a job in malaysia...my fren has a contract tat needs bout 100 ppl...." - Tapir Bte Tenuk, 04-11-2008 10:11 PM
After reading the message, I then replied...
"None that I knw of....y la from sabah work in malaysia...sabah is/also malaysia.." - Wel^Beiolman, 04-11-2008
I was busy consulting/supporting customer at that time but still, I could not ignore what she has to say about the text message..well I was on the phone with a customer and my right hand was holding my mobile replying a text message to wish a sweet-good-night message to someone I care...she replied...
"Oh ya...sorry ah..haha..." - Tapir Bte Tenuk, 04-11-2008 10:45 PM
With that response, I then decided not to reply and left it that way...I guess she was just not well aware of the geographical and history of Malaysia..that's all kan...So, back to my curiosity...can someone tell me why some of this too-proud-to-be-Malaysian or this stupid-moron-Malaysian thinks Sabah is no part in Malaysia...if Sarawak..I can understand as we need to use passport (especially people coming from peninsular) to enter the state and will be given a visitation visa.....correct me if am wrong ah..never been to Sarawak lagi ni..but that's what I heard from people who had been there...could it be the history text books used in schools around Peninsular Malaysia are differ to the ones we use in Sabah? I wonder.....
