The Miracle of Origin Not Effective In Every Way

The  Miracle of Origin Not Effective In Every Way

                I am reading the my oxford dictionary, to find the definition for the word "Origin". Basically, it doesn't mean much to me in my private life. I came across this word "Origin" from a news article, but the reason to force me to study the real meaning of this word, is that people always use this word in their regular conversation without knowing the hidden meaning its bring to us in our life. If I use concept of origin in my career, it must come to a hot discussion of capital intellectual which could bring great wealth to you.

                Okay, it is defined as starting point and source. Then, the starting point of this country is where we see the formation of Malaysia in our declaration of independence. From this point of view, some people would bring us fly back to the ancient time like what the history is recording such as Kingdom of Srivijaya or Majapahit where each of us could not imagine anything valuable at all from the few pages in history book. Let say that those are origin of Malaysia, then Chinese Community could not claim anything at all, because some people say that the Indian built the Kingdom. Later, the emerge of Melaka Kingdom, it is importance, because it is almost the origin of each sultanate system in Malaysia. Princess Parameswara was the founder of Melaka. Its sound like Indian as well, but was considered as Malay Kingdom.

                People did not inherit anything at all from these Kingdoms, no magnificent palace are seen today, no native language that show their own identity, no race festival to celebrate together, no traditional food, no antic to show high civilization, and even without any traditional living skills in today. There were only a few humbly shack everywhere around this regions. I can say that what you own and inherit from these Kingdom are not sufficient to enjoy the bliss of modern city life you are living now.

                When people think a bit further about it, origin could be an issue debating about who came first in this country. The story of tortoise and rabbit running might bring some fun to enjoy you.  The one and the only one mega city in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur. The origin of it should start from the story of business development by founder Yap Ah Loy. Nowadays, we can see the modern and progress of this city. About 40 years ago, more than 90% of the citizens were Chinese, Chinese built it and Chinese living in it, it is fully make sense and reasonable. Today, the city coverage has included the whole Klang Valley, which about 30KM away from the core city destination. Based on my own assumption, nowadays, it could be 50% Malays and 50% Chinese respectively dominate this city.

                Not everyone have the same fate in this country, the origin of the city has lost its origin meaning for living. The Malays has its own origin's story as reason to survive and live in this city, meanwhile, the Chinese have no more any chances to continue their living in this city. Chinese have gradually lost their business opportunity, job opportunity, and now Chinese living place are threatened by the Malay Dominance Effect. Because of the origin, the Malays have higher privileges in claiming their benefits in every government's implemented Policy. Without the privileges like the one derived from the Malay origin, Chinese community solely rely on the themselves to find its own ways to survive is just a myth to comfort Chinese community.   

                Among the large native populations, about 50% of them are coming from Indonesia, but the concept of origin is still effective for each of them to claim anything in Malaysia. They have their own story about origin to claim anything in this country, but you have neglected Chinese community which have sacrificed and contributed the large portion for the development of this country. If you no money, we gave. If you don't have job, we gave. If you don't know, I taught you. If you need help, we helped. You just never think about me.
