Berdikari
I still remember during my schooling years. One day our Bahasa Malaysia teacher taught us the word ‘berdikari’. She said it actually stands for ‘berdiri di atas kaki sendiri’, meaning ’standing on your own feet’.
But today…
Murid-murid : “Selamat pagi cikgu!”
Cikgu : “Selamat pagi murid-murid. Sila duduk. Hari ini cikgu nak mengajar satu perkataan yang penting. Perkataan ini ialah…” *proceed to write on blackboard ‘berdikari’* “Murid-murid cuba baca perkataan ini.”
Murid-murid : “B-E-R ber, D-I di, K-A ka, R-I ri… BERDIKARI.”
Cikgu : “Bagus! Ada siapakah yang boleh terangkan maksud perkataan ini?”
Abdullah : “Ia bermaksud ‘berdiri di atas kaki sendiri’.”
Cikgu : “Salah!”
Abdullah : “Tetapi bapa saya mengajar saya ‘berdikari’ maksud ‘berdiri di atas kaki sendiri’, cikgu.”
Cikgu : “Adakah bapa kamu sanggup berdikari, Abdullah?”
Abdullah : “Err… Err…”
Cikgu : “Ada siapa nak cuba lagi?”
Ah Meng : “Saya, cikgu!”
Cikgu : “Ya, Ah Meng?”
Ah Meng : “Ia bermaksud ‘berdiri di atas mangkuk orang lain’, cikgu.”
Cikgu : “Betul! Betul! Betul sekali! Mari bagi tepukan!”
Murid-murid : *tepuk tepuk tepuk*
Cikgu : “Tepuk lagi!”
Murid-murid : *tepuk tepuk tepuk*
Cikgu : “Tepuk lagi!”
Murid-murid : “Tangan sakitlah, cikgu.”
Cikgu : “Okay! Cukup.”
Murid-murid : “Abdullah menangislah, cikgu.”
Cikgu : “Biar dia tenangkan fikiran.”
Murid-murid : “Tetapi cikgu dia sedang panjat KLCC cuba nak lompat!”
Cikgu : “Biar dia lompat lah! Kami tengok wayang.”
The Snark : “Nanti cikgu! Kami kena panggil Malaysia Book of Records cikgu, untuk terjunan bunuh diri yang tertinggi di Malaysia!”
PS : What you are doing today, is going to go down in history, to be laughed upon by future generations from the rest of the world. Are you going to let your children suffer the same fate as you? Disagree? Read this.
There are two ways to achieve equity :
1. To pull yourself up
2. To pull other people down
Guess which one is more convenient?

Doc, I fully agree with you. I have similar topic posted in my blog too on September.
What make me feel sick is the AGM (you-know-what-party-is) held on now. Read what they have asked for, one of them is 60% bumi corporate equity, 30% is not enoughand more at here.
When they will look at the BIG picture for the nation? After year 2011, when the real pain start?
jinkeanlim : I can assure you that they will die so fast that they won’t even have a chance to experience the real pain. RIP!
The next thing…
The rest of the world : “Who are you?”
Idiot : “I’m from Malaysia! They offered me ketuanan! I own the country! My grandfather said so!”
The rest of the world : “Oh yeah? Go fuck yourself, parasite!”
Idiot : “But but but… I damn powderful!”
Doc, you can call me KJ. This KJ is not that KJ in Malaysia although I’m Malaysian. When Malaysia become fully petrol importer, a lot of goods related to it will raise high their price. The chain reaction going on next, goods will become expensive also. However, look at the “talks” now and the past; still target on 30%,60%,70%,16% figures game and racist remarks. What kind of plan they have in order to prevent that pontential problems? Wait and see?
I doubt, are we voted WOODS in house?
KJ : Prevent potential problem? No need lar! Eat first die later lar! Kan senang?
This means : We didn’t suck all. We still got leave behind a bit for you.
if THEY want to continously berdikari (as explained by ah meng), memanglah memanglah mereka bodoh. and they are the one who formed the gomen so yes, malaysia bodoh.
Our country would be more advanced than Singapore if they truly understand what berdikari is.
berdikari means ‘okra beans inside a pot of curry’
When Malaysia’s black gold runs dry, let see who will be going to the space and who will be wielding his kris defending his race..
We than we will see the biggest export of Malaysia - Malaysian Maid, Malaysian Cheap labors..
loud8, we voice this problem here because we really don’t want “malaysian maid, malaysian cheap labours” happen. All of us have family members in Malaysia, and we sincerely wish no one become that. Therefore, we voice for good not to TARUK KUAT KUAT. We voice because we really worry and care.
