1Malaysia = Transformation = Reformation = Reformasi?? Copycats and arrogance

by Nathaniel Tan

Firstly, Salam Maal Hijrah! :)

Not to politicise religion or whatever, but I thought it a bit presumptuous when Najib said:

The Hijrah spirit practised in Islam is in line with the 1Malaysia concept which is a continuous effort at strengthening unity among the people.

Hallo. *IF* anything, it would be that 1M’sia is in line w/the Hijrah spirit, not the other way around. So arrogant this guy!

I also couldn’t help but notice other terminology, as used in the front page of today’s Star as well:

THE 1Malaysia Transformation Roadmap will be released by the end of next month after getting public feedback, said Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon.

Transformation? What, you mean like Reformation? Like, Reformasi?

Sigh, there isn’t a single original idea in 1M’sia is there?

I guess the proof of the pudding will always be in the tasting.

(for a long time, I always found myself saying: the proof is in the pudding. which i realise. doesn’t make sense :P )
