Rais might be happy that even some Malay words have been loaned to English, like, when a person goes on a temper tantrum. It’s a question of give and take, yielding a win-win situation all around.
When I asked them why, they told me that when they try to converse in English with other Malays, they get mocked. “Wah, speaking lah tu”, “dah jadi mat/minah Salleh ker”, “action lah tu, cakap ong puteh”, etc, etc. Meanwhile, hypocrites like Rais will never question other Malay leaders like Mohamed Nazri Aziz, who apparentlyMost of the eliteMalays send their kids to international schools where the medium of instruction is English, but Rais does not question that. Instead, he finds it appropriate to ask why the Chinese have Christian names.folk will always keep the ordinary Malays in their kampung and under the proverbial coconut shell.
And speaking of English names such as Hampshire, Ainsdale and others, why limit the rhetoric to housing gardens? What is the origin of road names such as Damansara this and Damansara that, which predominates huge parts of KL?What's wrong with our politicians? Use a Malay name like Timah and they say cannot as it sounds like the Arabic name Fatimah. Now they say English names are “disgusting” so if Winepak changed Timah to “Tin Ore”, that would be wrong too.
I guess it is hard for some Malays to appreciate this. It is always my religion, my language, my, my, my…“The Malay-daily quoted Rais as saying the practice has portrayed an obsession with English-styled names, likening it to the Chinese who adopted ‘European names like Michael, James or George’ over their Chinese names.”The loss of Malay culture is not so much due to the use of language. Malay culture is disappearing due to the fast influx of Arabic culture in the guise of religion.
These guys Rais is plain narrow and shallow mind , it's time he resigned and retired , let young and able to move up.
Rais Yatim. Haha He must be living in a glass house under the bridge! He burnt the bridge and now breaking his glass house?
Dinosaur like him should just sit down and keep quiet. He can't even change his own party Name .... stop using UMNO...that's the the abbreviation for United Malays National Organisation. Change that first then you can talk about others. If not sit down and keep quiet.
Rais is an unmitigated idiot. He should be put in a mental home with Hadi
A man should go when the time is ripe and not hand around to be thrown rotten eggs
This guy is nothing new...ignorelar
There's no such thing as melayu in Islam. There's no such thing as bahasa melayu in Islam. There's no such thing as bahasa jawi in Islam. So what are these fellows quarreling for?
