So, today at OCF, it was international night. Every cell group was assigned a country, and the country we had was Indonesia. Obviously, as our assistant CG leader Glenda is Indo. Anyway, it was a fun night. We made a skit and Jono made us sing the Indo Anthem. LOL. Super hilarious.

I gave $50 to OCF mission. And I am very very proud of myself!! :) Since I started working, I learnt about something that is money and materialistic goods isn't important. Before that I was always complaining about not having enough money, I want this that bla bla bla. But now, working has changed my perspective of money. I always thought money would make me happy but no, it hasn't, infact I'm more stress out than before.

Then, we had to pray for all the nations like Indonesia, India, HK, Japan and MALAYSIA!!! When it comes to Malaysia, I just realised how much Malaysia has changed. Racism is still a HUGE issue!! I mean from the surface, Malaysia looks so peaceful, everyone likes each other, but deep down, racism is very much a huge issue. Different races are fighting over everything, government, political parties are fighting over power and superiority. I mean what happen to the Rukunnegara that we take pride alot?? (I still remember :)). WHAT HAPPEN??

On the way home, we were discussing about it, and someone mention whether Malaysia will eventually split, like Korea spliting into North and South and looks like we're heading towards it. Malays are still (I supposed) very jealous of the Chinese. The government is still prioritising bumiputera. Chinese are still presumably treated as 2nd class citizens. I mean no one talks about this, everyone just goes about with their daily things, ignoring these signs that Malaysia is no longer a united country. What happen to the pride of unity that we share??

The thought that Malaysia will split, maybe East and West Malaysia? just scares me alot. Even for someone like me, who has lived in Australia for close to 4 years feels very worried about this. Families will split, the lifestyle, living standards, economy will go down hill.

Clearly, history is repeating itself, don't we ever learn from past mistakes?

So friends, please pray for this country that has been built very intricately. Pray for unity, pray for wisdom for our leaders, pray that difference will be put aside, pray for the difference races and cultures.

And.... Selamat Merdeka!! :) Wuhhoo.. lets party in Australia!!
