Do you know??

1Malaysia is an on-going political programme designed by Malaysian Prime Minister,Najib Tun Razak on September 16, 2008, calling for the cabinet, government agencies, and civil servants to more strongly emphasize ethnic harmony, national unity, and efficient governance. An official logo and slogan has been introduced along with the launch of 1Malaysia concept. The logo is the symbol of '1' which incorporates the national Jalur Gemilang flag and the word Malaysia. The first slogan is 'Rakyat Didahulukan, Pencapaian Diutamakan' or 'People First, Performance Now'. The second slogan is 'Menjana Transformasi' or 'Generating Transformation'.

The 1Malaysia concept is a deeper appreciation of our cultural diversity, and greater government efficiency and responsiveness ­ is the path that can lead to political stability, economic growth and social enhancement for all Malaysians and for our country as a whole.

As Malaysians, we have a vital role to play in helping to realize the nation’s aspirations and visions. Without unity and loyalty to the nation in a diverse country like ours, all our efforts to achieve a better life for our citizens will be futile.There is a need for all of us, be it at the highest level of authority or at our individual and community levels, to treat others with absolute impartiality and fairness.We need to accept and live in peace with each other, showing concern and respect for an interest in all people, regardless of their status or inherent differences.

We must specifically develop a spirit of love, kindness and generosity towards the needy and less-fortunate as well as those lacking facilities, resources and opportunities among our people, including those struggling for survival due to disability, or being widows, orphans, aliens and the aged and the destitute.

In our homes, at work and at play, as well as at local and national levels, we should practice by example and encourage among our younger generation the quality of perseverance and self-discipline, the pursuit of excellence in all academic, occupational and professional endeavors, the attainment and recognition of quality, and most importantly, the value of humility and integrity.

Let us guard ourselves and help others against falling prey to envy, greed, selfishness, pride and anger. These qualities will only lead and bring us, our society and our nation, to an ultimate downfall.Rather, we should seek the essential virtues of dignity, forbearance, trustworthiness, compassion and hospitality.

As a responsible, creative and innovative thinking and conscientious people, with a government committed to policies and actions aimed at the highest good for our nation and its people, we can certainly hope with faith and confidence, that our cherished 1Malaysia ideals can and will be realized.Let us then move forward with courage as 1Malaysians, offering, sharing and embracing these virtues and values within our communities, our society and our nation

..diLa's videO cLip's chOice..

This video is about three friends who consist of Malays, Chinese and Indian. It is a flashback memory where Lim and Hassan met by accident at the hospital due to small accident. Even though they had been a long time not see each other, but they still can recognize. I am interested to choose this video because this video have lots of lessons.

For me, this video is about the concept of 1 Malaysia because they become friends regardless of race and religion. It also highlights the high value of friendship. This can be seen at the time of Hassan's circumcision where Lim and Param wait for Hassan circumcised by 'tok mudim', and then carry him used a bicycle. Param pedal slowly while Lim helped Hassan to walk because they know that Hassan are not in a good condition. This shows their caring and helpful nature.

As the conclusion,we should respect each other and be friend with everybody regardless of race and religion to keep our country in peace and unite.

Echa's Video Clip choice...^^

For the presentation in class I have choose this video clip.

This video clip is taken from the you tube. This video is about the multiple ethnic relation in Malaysia. This video is uploaded by the you tube user, nasirharis88. There are no further information about the video, but from the scenery in the video I'm guessing that this video was made by the IIUM's students. The video are about the multiple ethnic relation in Malaysia, the crisis that occur in Malaysia and how to avoid the crisis from happen again.

The multiple ethnic relation in Malaysia is one of the symbol of our country. The main ethnic in Malaysia are Chinese, Indian, and Malay. Malaysia is very proud of the multiple ethnic. Even though, the differences between the ethnic are very clear, such as the religion, languages, cultures and many more. Despite that we are be able to live together in the same country.

However, there are still many crisis had happened in our country because of the different ethnic, even though we be able to live together and work together and such. The example of the crisis are like chaos, discrimination, ethnic violent. The cause of the crisis are the religion, every one have their own way of practice, economic, the differences in working sectors and the domination of the economic sectors, culture and language, the racial interest like choosing friends, jobs and partners, polarization between ethnic group, and the politic.

The solution that we can take is the individuals have their own responsibilities. The example of the individuals are such as parents, the authorities, community and so on. To solve the crisis we must have good social iteration between the ethnic, pay them a visit when they are sick, uphold the right of all neighbor, respect others including religion, culture and language, and communicate well with them.

As the nutshell, from the video we can learn that to create a peaceful country we must be unite and respect others even though they are different from us.

This video told a story of 3 good friends that are all from different races. There went to 'pasar malam' together and during at the 'pasar malam' they had talked and found out many things related to the different ethnic in Malaysia that can live happily ever after. This video had leaved many good messages for us as a Malaysian and with some humorous this video is very interesting to watch. There are three reasons why this video was choose.

Secondly because this video also told us a very important message that in order to make Malaysia become a developed country or in other word to make Wawasan 2020 become reality we as a Malaysian citizen must unite and together we take care this country.

Lastly, this video has shown us that we as a Malaysian are very grateful to become part of Malaysia because with a lot of different ethnic we can taste a lot of different kind of food, see other culture and learn many different languages and still we can live peacefully.

Overall, this video had given us many good message regarding to ethnic relation and more video like this must be publish in order to give awareness to the people out there the important of unity and how lucky we are to become the citizen of Malaysia and last word from me, let us unite and support the slogan of 1 Malaysia.
