A gentle reminder to all Malaysians from Alonso, JB

Read in The Sun today, Do you agree ?


YOU ARE A 3RD WORLD COUNTRY
(A gentle reminder to all Malaysians)

Progress is not solely about prosperity
Not buildings that look pretty
You may have the KLCC
But some places like Penang are still dirty
So you are still a 3rd world country because of your mentality

You try to beat the queue to get a taxi
And don't even bother about road courtesy
Not to mention parking indiscriminately
Without signalling you overtake randomly
And abusing lanes for emergency
Rising deaths on the roads is how you celebrate festivity

You created the MSC
To emulate Silicon Valley
You talk about high technology
To preach about the PC
But yet broadband is denied to many

You also cant supply stable electricity
Your roads have potholes and are bumpy
And tyres fall off your LRT
So this is Malaysian quality

Let's create the best schools, roads and toilets in the country
Are what Malaysia Boleh should strive to be
But instead Malaysia Boleh is so funny
You break records just to make yourself feel happy

Decades passed but this mentality I still see
Will this carry on till the next Century?
Or will this change when we turn 80?
You are helpless and just let it be
Let it be

Will tomorrow be better for you and me?
15 years from now come 2020
If this goes on you will still be
Just another 3rd world country
because of your mentality
These changes we hope to see under the leadership of PM
Abdullah Ahmad Badawi
