the photo


bila sebut Merdeka
i will always terbayang the scene
bila Tunku Abdul Rahman melaungkan
Merdeka ! Merdeka ! Merdeka ! Merdeka ! Merdeka !
di Stadium Merdeka pada 31 Ogos 1957

even though me (and most of us)
wasn't there when the event actually took place
but certainly, that scene / snapshot
i would always remember it
as one of the unforgettable moments
and would always think of it
every times someone mentioning the word merdeka

what's yours?

Whenever I dgr the word "merdeka" I will always remember how we would always shout the word after abis jer every exam..be it SRP, SPM or final paper during final year :)

MERDEKA! MERDEKA! MERDEKA! :P

Ntahlah, lately whenever I hear people shouting Merdeka! Merdeka! I feel sad. Maybe it's because I just came to realize that the Bumis are still left far behind when it comes to economics.
After 50 years of Merdeka, maybe it's about time to force the Bumis to become more independent and competitive.

I akan teringat lagu arwah Sudirman.

"Tanggal 31, bulan 8, 57..."

Such a catchy song!
