Colours of Malaysia...七彩大马

Edinburgh Malaysian Student Union has organized 'Malaysia Night' in this old city. We hold the event in  old church. It is a night that promote Malaysian culture to Mat Salleh, they do have traditional dances, songs in different languages, puisi and Malaysian food. No matter what kind of traditional performance, Chinese, Malays, and Indians hand by hand, shoulder by shoulder get the event done successfully. I so proud as a Malaysian especially out of our homeland. Sometime, we will more appreciate what we have in Malaysia when we live aboard. Tonight, we nearly forget who races we are, who are we are only Malaysian, the people who came from same land, environment and history. We are closed as a family here, we speak our own national language, we have same memory on pokok kelapa sawit, durian and KLCC; This is our identity and value, no one can change it! Pround of you, Malaysian.

真的感觉到人出国后，爱国情操也特别浓厚（但是不否认有人出国后更看不起自己的国家）其实无论我们跑到天涯海角，转换国籍，成长在马来西亚这片国土上的记忆和身份是永远抹不去的。我们的确能够随意地定居在地球任何一个角落，但有人问起你是那里来的时候，你还是会忍不住说来自马来西亚，毕竟它是一个事实了。今晚参与爱大大马学生会举办的马来西亚晚会，在老外面前体现出马来西亚浓厚的文化舞蹈，歌曲和语言。大家不分种族肤色，只一味要把马来西亚最美好的一面呈现出来，把马来西亚的友善带出来，团结一致，这除了感动还是感动。居住国外的我们并不是‘无根草’，只是一根‘浮萍’，随着水流飘到一个陌生的地方罢了。
