Happy Merdeka Day everyone.
Somehow this year's celebrative mood is somewhat sombre except for the public holiday today to remind us that our beloved nation is in its 52nd year after having obtained its independence.
We celebrate our Merdeka Day today without the usual pom what with the nation facing the H1N1 pandemic while on the political front (Peninsular mostly), more depressing events are taking place on an alarming rate. I saw less of the Jalur Gemilang being flown for the whole of the Bulan Kemerdekaan unlike the previous year.
Does this mean that we have become less patriotic or we are all are just feeling the fatigue of the endless politicizing by both the BN and Opposition leaders. Almost everything being politicized now. Even a poor cow head could be used as a tool.
Makes me wonder really what is going on with this beloved country of ours.
