Malaysia must be holding the world record for the most number of world record attempts and entries in the world !
We are so obsessed with creating a name in the Guinness Book of World Records that we will stop at nothing to get a mention there !We even created our own Malaysian Book of Records, remember ?
Why or why is it so important that we strive to hold/set the record to have the most number of people playing "gasing" in media, building the tallest building, cooking the longest lemang, largest dodol, highest flag-pole, largest satay, longest bridge(crooked?), most corrupted councillors , first developed state, most number of people playing chongkak, most number of "solo" journeys (of course accompanied by a tv crew!) to the south pole ,north pole,...(climbing up the tallest flag-pole??) most number of people doing the 'line-dance' in one padang, most number of 'mat rempits' on one single night doing the 'willie' with a 'pebonceng'(or pillion rider!), most number of illegals, deported and returning the very next day with a new and assumed passport, legally and NOW....yesterday, most number of people attending a training session in CPR at one venue or location !!!
What do we expect to acheive by all this crap ? Can all this, change our mind-set when we still over- take on the 'emergency lane' on highways ? Or will it stop us spitting, throwing things like soiled baby's pampers, used tissues, et cetera, out of moving vehicles? Smoke in a 'No Smoking' zone especially in goverment buildings ?( most times the culprits are goverment servants themselves), Honking for no damn reason at the car in front of you if he drove a wee bit slow from the traffic light that just turned green ? "Think" in our ethnic language and curse the rest of the population or still classify each other by our religion or race when filling up all goverment/official forms ????
I remember one year when a foreign poll listed Malaysia as the No. 27 th. "most corrupted country" in the world ! And boy ..or boy ....were we so pissed-off........yes, everyone was, cos we were No. 27 ...... we cannot be 27th.......we have to be number one... yes,yes.. ...surely, we are Malaysia and as Malaysians we HAVE to be............. "numero uno" !! Now you tell me why we have to be number one for all the wrong reasons !!
