Thinking outside the tank !

Wishful thinking:
How true and sad ! Sad because this 1Malaysia tag for a fish tank, located in Saloma MATIC centre along Jalan Ampang in the city is a far cry from the truth. 

Picture this: 
If one smart fish in this here tank decided to "take charge" and surround itself with thuggish and less intelligent fish specie, throws in some toll gates, demarcate each fish's boundary, let the crony thug fish bully the smaller fish by increasing taxes and fines for straying from its designated watery-space and high-jack the smaller fish's food supply and limiting fish-feed, declare water ownership as that smart species' birth right whilst depriving the original species any rights  and decided to play the specie-card (read race-card) to stay on top of the food chain.......then this aquarium won't be as blissful as it may seem, right ?  

In Reality : 
Yes we were once like these fish too, living in almost 'perfect and blissful" harmony but all that changed. It changed when that crafty old scheming excuse for a prime minister came into power that lasted 22 long years. This life of "blissful harmony" that is now but a mere lip-slogan engineered by Najib and his cohorts to artificially create a "shiok sendiri" or "feel-good" situation that never was there in the first place since that hateful Mahathir began his long rule which systemically and  spitefully was divided by hate of race and religion. Those dark years of rule by that Tun, who himself knew that being a non-Malay, could not afford to rule a secular and united Malaysia for fear of loosing his grip of the Malay majority  populace but nevertheless claimed ownership of this country by false means and belittling the Malay race in his "ace-up-his-sleeve" book, "The Malay Dilemma". He grudgingly pitted one race against the other using race and religion and manipulated and corrupted the entire administrative system from the judiciary to the police. 
The rest was (altered and bastardised ) history ! 

So we wait to change all this. Change is good. Any change from what is "In Reality" above is GOOD !

Shalom and enjoy the rest of this wet Sunday !

Had a good laugh! They forgot to include this specie - pirahana! Malaysia got lots of this kind! Ones that pinch, tear, bite and destroy!
