For the longest time I wonder if I was patriotic.
Now I am finally convinced that I will never be a patriot to this so-called negaraku. It appears that myself, my father, my mother, my parents' fathers and mothers, we're just visitors. We're not welcomed and we should just as well pack our bags and go "home".
Patriotism is well and truly overrated, especially in this very gemilang country. Thank you for making it so blindingly obvious to our children and their children that it's absolutely fine to disrespect people of another skin color, that, even after more than 50 years of toil and tears for this place we've come to call Home, we deserve no gratitude nor equal rights.
Because we're just passing through.
