Merdeka!

it is the month of august, where, on the 31st, malaysians will once again celebrate the day they gained independence from the british colonials.

a month where malaysians proudly fly their flags on the tops of their roofs, and adorn their cars with smaller versions. a month where tv commercials will once again celebrate the diversity that is malaysia. the sacrifices made by our forefathers for this great nation.

and what better way to celebrate it, than to torch an aceh village down, your neigbours for the past 5 years, in a proud nationalistic display that this is malaysia! we are malaysians! and you are not!
