In an interview with media , the Major General of Indian
Army was asked this “Where is the strength of your army ? Is it your modernized weapons or the number of
the soldiers? The MG replied “ It’s the patriotism in every of our soldier's heart . It’s
the real strength of Indian Army”
Patriotism.
School students think about it on Mondays.
Anti establishment group thinks about when they go for rallies.
Government think it is when they citizen obey them
Parents think about it on 8th month of English calendar.
NO matter what is your understanding about it, I believe all
of us are patriotic in some ways, somehow.
Politics aside - we have shown our unity every time Malaysia
FA plays. We have screamed our heart out every time Datuk Lee Chong Wei picks his racket
. That is the time the aura of patriotism flows in every citizen let it be
young or old , man or woman , BN or PR.
Somewhere in last year , I went to watch our boys playing
against Thailand at Bukit Jalil Stadium. Beside me there was a stranger, a middle
aged man . Well , there were many of them around me too , haha. But this particular
‘joe’ was looking very arrogant and cold. The match kicked off and we start
cheering for the same team , Malaysia. The moment our boys netted the first
goal, everyone including me start jumping in joy. I got a surprise hugging from
the very same stranger I mentioned just now. Who is he? I don’t know. Well, I
am not a gay but I welcomed the hug, brotherly. The moment we shared together
as Malaysian.
Since then I have start seeing everyone regardless of who
they are as another ‘joe’ .
Talking about politics now , aren’t all of us let it be BN
or PR want a better nation? Arent there a ‘joe’ in all of us? We argue much, criticize and fight...for our motherland ,dont we?
We sing the same anthem , we share the same country .. Let
share the love for the country together. To whoever you are , if you are reading
