Us and Them [Prepared by Huzaifah @ Zai]
Zai checking in, hello y’all. How’s the life? been
good? should always be, because Malaysia is peaceful, beautifully
harmonious and ultimately advanced
educated. Exactly why these are fundamentally important to be noticed? Because
i’m now living in modern age which I see always moving, establishing and
competing economically, socially and politically no less. Asking our parents or
theirs regarding how fast we have “changed” would always be a very interesting
topic to debate with because most of them will always look on social
sides.There apparently are concrete reasons why social always rules,well
despite the undeniable fact that social is the key of civilisation's measures,
social is also one hot gist to look upon in detail as it differs our people
from the "OTHER PEOPLE" (non Malaysians lah) !
To be ungrateful is totally disgraceful because in terms of unity,Malaysia rule, economy? Always developing. As well, education, we have the best graduates.But still,why social is still the main issue in Malaysia? Well simply because of 2 main reasons,and 2 main reasons only:culture and identity.
1.-CULTURE
The colours in Malaysia, comprises from
races, ethnicity, festivities, beliefs, religions and practises. It determines
whether Malaysia is still relevant to be called as a multicultural nation which
always play as a token of appreciation of people from outside our
motherland.The main idea was not to be well-known in tourism actually,as that
comes later as an advantage,but because without any written recipes or god-made
tablet ,we managed to maintain and harness the human qualities among Malaysians
that position us as a united and friendly nation!
2.-IDENTITY
Everybody knows that economy is equally as important
as our hormone "mana gement", parse, that in order to be in the market,we have to
market Malaysia. Well said factors are the main reasons why oversea-ers come to
us,which play as an identity.We are friendly yet educated ,which also means
that advancement didn't ever consume the best of us!
Yet,why the long-winded piece of boredom being posted
here?Just to show and acknowledge u guys,at the simplest level,what actually we
thought didn't happen ,happen due to “lots of changes”that took place in
Malaysia for the last 20 years to date.Its us,the young generation,specifically
the ones born in the 20th century.
I was born in
1992,also at the brink of the Milena,yet i did experienced the traditional
and vintage values of childhood as my parents’s. Games like galah panjang, baling
selipar, pondok-pondok, tuju guli and etc, were the best parts of my life. Well childhood
didn't begin in front of techs but techs already took part in Malaysia as in
video games,toys and lots more. First, what actually happen was friendship. Out
you go from your bed at the early hour of morning, sips of "milo or nescafe", empty
stomach or non, it doesn't matter, ever. The most important is to not stay at home
until evening, now that's always been the first rule. Set your foot and walk
straight to the park which set out scenes where there were kids playing the
slides, swings and most interestingly trees. Trees were actually the headquarters
of all junior “mafias”, hilariously speaking. After I walked to the playing
ground which as usual, in some cases, indicated that you have just broken the
self-proclaimed territory. Then, the "friendly fights" took place, to test how
strong you are when you were alleged to have the intention of taking over the
place as alpha or what I used to call "kepala". The trimmings were there, pulling
shirts to tear, little bits of pushing here and there and ended with
laughter, not by us but the "audiences". From there the questions like, hey where
do you live and do you want to play with us always play by the tongues, no names
asked, no sorry and no thanks, that's how strong and beautiful friendship really
was. And ultimately again, there will be territory breach by competitive group
from other places and finally a face to face approach must always be chosen to
settle things. However, what actually interested me was, until now, whenever
situation call for a “power rangers” fight, undoubtedly without second
thought, my group and I, girls inclusive will go down to the fight which also
ended up with laughter and creation of a bigger group. It gave me surely a lot
to laugh about when after 6 to 7 years, I met my "RIVAL" and it was awkward and
somewhat nostalgic and unfortunately, did fell in love.
COMPARATIVELY,
Which is happening in our society right now is the
interpretation of social itself. When we have been urged to start and make an
improve on our paradigm, we always without much consideration, thought of technologies
and the need to be 4 or maybe 5 step ahead, then we start to treat our life as
similar as the ones in school, which is exam oriented. We despise failures when
lessons we had that created us since we were kids were those. We laugh at our
cultural melt-down,where it actually is depleting our identity as
Malaysians. Most annoyingly,we finally managed to build generation gaps in the
name of human rights and privacy and whatnot and unimaginably, we impose those
so called educational values among families which also successfully has
separated us entirely when family is supposedly number one remedy in children
development.Then ask yourself,how to reach children nowadays when you ‘shorten
your own hands’ and you minimised their ability to talk for attention??We always
mistaken creativity and cleverness for "smart-aXXness".
Childhood is but a seemingly important phase,which
then will validate whether you can be in the community or not once you have
grown up.Memories and lessons are those very crucial in building you specifically
mentally.but spaces created today are visibly nonsensical.Unbelievable easy
access to Internet, non-limited age propriety in watching videos or films,and
absurd “privacy is my name’ among them are our major concerns now! Due to
these, easily beyond debatable doubt, their metals are corrupted.uncensored
games and movies created them to be vocabularies efficients;in cussing and
swearing for the sake of compromising ones life.No wonder kid kills freely
nowadays and take random killings for the fact taking.Technologies that is not
advocating togetherness,the need to learn and add educational values made them
to always be on their own,no friendship shown,they isolate from the community
and become dull.Technology is not behaviourally faulty but the implementations
always come from human,and undoubtedly humans misfits always have been a major
threat among ourselves.Kids do have
spaces but always wrongly given.we open for them a chance to destroy humanity
and for the creation of human qualities,we blame and kill them in the name of
conservativeness and always mistaken punishments for the tortures of the
80’s.Games for example are not helping.You sit in front of a machine,score for
the whole day without meeting people and you call that home studies and
focus,technology class as well. Well is meeting people or do some non-digital
activities kill?I don't think so!
Regrettably, it took only few years so corrode the
qualities which were ones identified us as advance yet green to the eyes of the
world.Some people may without proper discussions,blame technology,easy because
that's what happening in the society,kids playing tabs and video games without
even blinking an eye to the surrounding which are full of friendly people.its
the interpretation of modernisations that is to be checked and done of full
assessments,why should it consume our children and maybe some may think that
its not that bad to change, well then, ask yourself, will it be worth it to have
children childhood taken away for the sake of developments? Well for sure, children
development is spoiled!!!!! And thus become a key of civilisation end!
