“Reading was my escape and my comfort, my consolation, my stimulant of choice: reading for the pure pleasure of it, for the beautiful stillness that surrounds you when you hear an author's words reverberating in your head.”

MY OPEN LETTER TO ALL CHINESE CITIZEN
(inspired by my previous post)
Malaysian hosted Chinese father of modern China, Dr. Sun Yat Sen , when he was on exile, and contributed to the revolution that brings China to where it is now
During world war 2, Malaysian (Chinese) formed the 'Cherry Blossom Union'桃花会‘ to collect donation , for China to fought against the invading Japanese army since 1937, resulted that the Japanese being cruel to us when they invaded us in 1941
Malaysian government , in 1974 was among the first in South East Asia to established diplomatic ties with the Chinese Government where the whole world is taking side on the Capitalist block which was led by United States
Malaysian government gave mass citizenship to the Chinese immigrant during independence for them to settle down here peacefully
Malaysian government had been reluctant to allow American to set up military bases over here, with the intention of taking care of China's feeling
Malaysian government does not fight aggressively against China like her other counterpart in South East Asia, over Spartly Island ownership
Malaysian government is the only government in the world (except Switzerland government 'due to its multiracial background of origins)' that allows Chinese vernacular to be part of mainstream education(SMJK)
Malaysian government is the only government that insist that Chinese must be part of the cabinet team, even knowing that the Chinese political party refuse to join the cabinet, they still leave 1 ministerial post (Transport) and 1deputy ministerial post (Tourism-no replacement after a Sarawak politician refuse to take up the post)
Malaysian government went against their own principle of fighting communism internally, to make friends with China, with the risk of being taken action against by the western country
Whenever there were disaster in China, such as the Sizhuan Earthquake, Malaysian never fails to contribute donations and man power to the aid of rescue and recovery
Malaysian citizens constantly visits China under the lead of NGO and some mainstream media to build schools , and other facilities in China remote area
Malaysian had been a supportive country to China so far
and
for one incident, which is unprecedented , unplanned, and also detrimental to us, you blamed us.
Your media speculates some conspiracy theories
You believed them and demand truth from us
and you will only believe that its a truth, if it fits the description of the conspiracy theory, for we have been telling truth, nothing but truth.
there might be a mistake, for the radar incident. and i think thats all the mistake that we've been committed
for other reasons, such as the mistake by your satellite, your soldier spotted some oil slick, which diverted the attention of the SAR, it wasnt problem of ours.
and for that radar incident , you want to boycott us. particularly, those artist that i once admire
and for our Prime Minister who stated nothing but facts from the experts(INMARSAT and AAIB), without mentioning crash and died, you accused us for murder
i felt utter disappointment at those, who tries to spoil the relationship between us , and you all, especially those ignorant artist and irresponsible media person.
I felt rather uncomfortable, for knowing this is the kind of treatment we get, for an unintentional tragedy. You get furious, angry, hate, and boycott us, disregard the good deeds that we have committed thus far, by us and our ancestors. Because of some unfounded conspiracy theories.
I am very sad, for being treated in this way.
I dont blame most of the citizens in China, for you have been misled, lied upon and instigated. I blame those irresponsible people , who committed this for their personal gain
I am sorry. if that is what you seek from us, for we will not LIE to tell you the version of TRUTH that you are trying your very best to put in our mouth
i pray.
i pray for you to be reasonable as brothers and sisters
i pray for the soul, innocent, who were onboard MH 370
i pray for your artist to be sensible
i pray for your media to be responsible
i pray.
God bless us.
Moreover, i still love you as a brother and sister. I still want to be your brother and sister, i still want to be loved by you. please, dont be emotional, vouch your media before forming opinion.
I promise, Malaysia will still open our arms to welcome you, should you want to visit us.
