I make no apology that I am Chinese Malaysian where my gradfather migrate from China. Can Tun M said so he is Malay of India origin? And should Zahid insult Tun M by holding up a photo copy of his IC and called Tun M ????? https://youtu.be/_SBa13Iibrw
Datuk Seri Zahid joined the attacks last weekend when he took a dig at Dr Mahathir's ancestry, saying the veteran politician's identity card (IC) showed he was Indian because his name was stated as Mahathir a/l Iskandar Kutty. The "a/l" refers to "anak lelaki", or "son of", a naming convention used by Malaysians of Indian descent. Malay men on their ICs carry "bin", which refers to "son of", in the patronymic style used in Malaysia.
Mr Zahid also read out the full IC number of Dr Mahathir, which alarmed some observers as this was supposed to be confidential information.
The former PM called Mr Zahid, who is also Home Minister, a "big liar" as there was no such IC.
"This is good enough to show that Zahid is a big liar. A big liar because he cannot show the blue-coloured identity card," Dr Mahathir said on Monday, in a video on the Facebook page of his party Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia. "I can still remember the first identity card I received. I was still in university at the time."
Dr Mahathir's daughter Marina Mahathir said Iskandar was the name of her father's grandfather.
While not denying her Indian heritage, she said the late Iskandar had married into a prominent Malay family.
While the words patriotism and nationalism were once considered synonyms, they have taken on different connotations. While both are the feelings of love people feel for their country, the values upon which those feelings are based are very different.
Feelings of patriotism are based on the positive values the country embraces—like freedom, justice, and equality. The patriot believes that both the system of government and the people of their country are inherently good and work together for a better quality of life
History had told us, Hitler openly proclaimed his racialism as nationalism in order to gain support/blind royalty/power with “you are either with me or against me (the nation)”, the poison indoctrinate of racialism as nationalism which lead Nazi to power and blinded the whole German Nation into world war II.
So may I ask: Feelings of patriotism are based on the positive values the country embraces—like freedom, justice, and equality. The patriot believes that both the system of government and the people of their country are inherently good and work together for a better quality of life.
Shouldn't Patriotic Malaysians stand up for positive values of the country?
That this nation of ours will rise up and live up the true meaning as proclaim by our Nation Founder Father Tunku Abdul Rahman at Independent day and Malaysia day: “forever a sovereign democratic and independent State founded upon the principles of liberty and justice and ever seeking the welfare and happiness of its people / ever seeking to defend and uphold peace and harmony among its people.”
Why China wants to revive the old silk road and add new ones and call it one belt one road ? When Obama proposed TPPT which intentionally exclude China and supported Japan nationalization of Daoyu island although this island is 4 times further to Japan than China, Xi knew USA and its allies wanted to contain and suppress China rise through control of SCS. Today 90 % of trade go through SCS. The formation of QUAD further confirm US ,Japan , Australia and Indian interests to contain China through the seas. The revival and expansion of the old silk road from Xian through Xinjiang and central asia plus the Pakistan China economic corridor was to reduce the dependence of SCS . Besides the cooperation between.Myammar and China is also to reduce the dependence on SCS such that import and export can also goes through these 3 other alternatives. Now , you can see why.US and the west." care " so much about Xinjiang Uyghurs minority.They just wants to destabilise Xinjiang such that China rise will be suppressed.
Patriotism Definition Along with love, patriotism is the feeling of pride, devotion, and attachment to a homeland, as well as a feeling of attachment to other patriotic citizens. The feelings of attachment may be further bound up in factors like race or ethnicity, culture, religious beliefs, or history.
There are so many injustice done by US and Western world in the name of human right that brought war of destruction to millions of people.
Should you be Patriotic and say NO to US as we know how to protect our forever a sovereign democratic and independent State founded upon the principles of liberty and justice and ever seeking the welfare and happiness of its people / ever seeking to defend and uphold peace and harmony among its people.”
Feelings of patriotism are based on the positive values the country embraces—like freedom, justice, and equality. The patriot believes that both the system of government and the people of their country are inherently good and work together for a better quality of life.
In contrast, feelings of nationalism are based on a belief that one’s country is superior to all others. It also carries a connotation of distrust or disapproval of other countries, leading to the assumption that other countries are rivals. While patriots do not automatically denigrate other countries, nationalists do, sometimes to the point of calling for their country’s global dominance. Nationalism, through its protectionist beliefs, is the polar opposite of globalism.
U.S. plotted the invasion of Iraq by claiming that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in 2003. While the claim was overturned by the U.S. itself, who acknowledged that the so-called evidence of WMD is merely laundry powder.
The same scenario was played again in Syria in 2018 where the U.S. and its allies claimed Syria of using chemical weapons and launched air strikes on the country in response.
For those who got money and keep talking negative about Malaysia and not worth to protest our sovereignty. They should have migrated to Singapore to enjoy good life as they perceived. Malaysia is not a country suitable you.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-malaysia-scandal-doj-idUSKBN1DZ0MX The U.S. attorney-general described a multi-billion dollar corruption scandal involving a Malaysian state fund as the worst form of kleptocracy, and said the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) was working to provide justice to the victims.
https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/dock-malaysias-us25-bil-settlement-goldman-fraught-confidentiality-clauses IN July, the Malaysian government reached an agreement with US investment bank Goldman Sachs over the multibillion-dollar 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal. The deal was shrouded in secrecy and bound by confidentiality clauses, and criticised by opposition lawmakers as inadequate recompense for the bank’s role in the massive theft of public monies.

Don’t divert the attention to another non related patriotic topic. SCS issues are enough to see what is in Malaysia Chinese minds.
Sad to say Malaysia Chinese minds are full of craps about politics and racism that have been accumulating for what had happened for the last few decades.
Anyway, there many reasons behind why our Malay friends shouting at us going back to China when they are not happy. B the important one is they feel Malaysia Chinese don't really patriotic for this country.
It is too naive and myopic to view the control of SCS as a fight between China and SEA countries. The RCEP is proposed and headed by SEA countries. A few months ago China was invited to join RCEP, If there is a fight between China and Philipines, Vietnam, Nalaysia, Indonesia, Brunei etc and China over SCS , why should the pioneer SEA countries of RCEP invite China to join ? There isnt any big quarrels on SCS in.any such meeting .On the Xinjiang genocide claimed by the west, China is opened to visits to Xinjiang in which thousands Mslaysians had visited in the last 30 years. The question of taking sides should not arise. After all , China had never restrict anyone from passing through SCS.
