Happy Merdeka Day.

It is my honour as an East Malaysian to congratulate the West Malaysians on their country's 50th Independence Day. However, it still takes 6 years for us, the ones who live on trees and wipe our arses with leaves to celebrate our country's 50th birthday. Yes, we are pretty much a pair of separate countries who happens to share the same name. Even when it was written in the constitution of 1963, that Malaysia is made of Malaya ( all states in the Peninsular) and Sabah and Sarawak. However, Sabah and Sarawak are proudly acknowledged as sisters of Malaysia when the timber and oil in both states make the country tick.

Tokkok: My housemate spring-cleaned the house. I wonder why. Perhaps, Merdeka? I was wrong. Parents. Her parents made me over-boil my long beans when they spied on me cooking.
