Contradictheory: You Malay one or 1Malaysian?
So that was the original title I had for today's article in The Star. Although I normally give really poor titles and the editors replace them with their own, I thought this one that I had was really on the mark. But I guess it could have been a little incendiary.It just also upsets me that so much that happens in Parliament that gets attention are people angling for political points and less about the actual job of running the country (which I understand can be pretty tricky in the first place). And what sounds like it matters so much actually doesn't really matter at all.
Yet, I still have faith in the nation. Strange, huh?

Once a dam is built, people behind the project purposefully forget its hidden disaster. Even by realizing that a dam disaster will shatter the lives and dreams of millions, the construction of dams are still going on. Our media, who highlights each and every issue happening around is least bothered to bring lights about this topic. Even the films never considered this as a subject of prominence to tell its audience. It is by this time I noticed a movie DAM 999 is taking its shape portraying this disaster. Being a movie with purpose, the dilapidated dam in this movie tells about its own disaster and after effects. News says this project with a silent warning will hit the screens by December 2010.
Hi Dzof Azmi,
First of all, thank you so much for writing that great article in the Star Sunday edition and using us an example. I cannot agree more with the spirit of the article and your feelings on the subject. I just wanted to set the record straight my wife Hilda ( Tengku Hilda bt Tengku Ahmad) is actually pure ( whatever that means :) ) Malaysian. Her dad is the from the royal family of Kedah and her mum is Sarawakian Malay. As for myself, my heart is Malaysian.
Wasalam

Thanks so much for your article. I, myself, believe I am 1Malaysia. You have a gift of putting words to paper. And for the most of it, I find myself agreeing and supporting your work. Looking forward to more thought provoking strings of sentences.
Hi Dzof,
I don't know if you've heard much about what my team and I are trying to do (from MWL, or multiple people within TC), but at least two people mentioned it's worth having a chat with you.
Do let me know if you have some time for me to run you through the korang mentoring vision and how it can potentially help nation building.
It's not ready yet, but I'm operating within many constraints- so, just want to bounce some ideas beyond your official capacity.
I can be reached on
warren.leow[ @] korang.com
Have previously spoken to RH and JM briefly when they were in London and are in active contact with WL and RT from LDRMICS.
