We <3 You Malaysia!

One of the only unique nations whom the people from various races, religions, cultures and ethnics live together and unite as one called Malaysians, instigating envy throughout the whole planet. Today, this blessed nation celebrated her 51st birthday as an independent country. And despite all the past and present fiascoes and controversies, Malaysia is still making its presence felt worldwide. I reckoned Malaysia's biggest birthday present would be a more diligent and systematic administration, with limited corruption - which in return the citizens would receive what they actually deserve. Did you realize I just mentioned a simple argument? With a more diligent and systematic administration (Premise 1), with limited corruption (Premise 2), us citizens would receive a deserving return from the government (Conclusion).
.
And this morning in Sunday service, there was an announcement for those in the hall who was around when Tunku Abdul Rahman chanted "Merdeka!" a spirited 7 times - there was only a mere 3 people. It made me realize those who were really there - or who have suffered so much but their unquestionable determination to set the nation free prevailed, are reducing in numbers and what's left are us people who might not have felt the same passion and emotional sensation when Merdeka comes about. Thus, isn't it our responsibility as "anak bangsa", to carry on that torch and shoulder the current and to-come generation in building an awesome nation? Indeed, this is a rhetorical question, trying to encourage you to agree that it is our responsibility.
.
Anyway, let us rejoice on this historical day of rememberance, and feel the spirit of Merdeka, at the same time, appreciating what privilege our ancestors have given us. Happy Birthday Malaysia :)

WE

YOU

in critical thinking, argument is like a statement with conclusion and premises (supports conclusion or not). yeah, so not really the ^%&*^*(*&&*((&)* kinda argument ;) if that's what you meant. hmm why jaw drop le?
