Date August 31 immortalized every year as a historic date for all Malaysians regardless of age, ethnicity, race and religion. Anyone who is a Malaysian citizen will feel proud when the last day in the month of August.
If the first response may be
carried out only on 31 August, but now his speech is for a month.
This month-long celebration, known as the Moon Festival, held for the
purpose of recalling the sacrifices of previous generations who have
fought to ensure that their children and grandchildren (that we all
exist today) can live in a free, peaceful, prosperous and free. That
generation of freedom fighters hope that their offspring will not be
colonized and plagued by external forces.
Actually, the main thing is the
anniversary of the independence of this country is for all
rakyatMalaysiauntuk translate this response into appreciation,
awareness and gratitude. Slogans, cries of independence and public
holidays do not bring any effect if rakyatMalaysiatidak live with
full awareness and gratitude for the actual independence.
Appreciation of independence is
not just shouted that the word independence, but also means the
appreciation and understanding of the meaning and importance of this
country's independence. Awareness of independence not only means that
we know when and where the celebration was held, but it also means
that we realize that this independence must be preserved because our
country can be colonized again. Grateful for independence not only
means that we are happy with the country's independence, but it also
means that we offer thanks to God S.W.T for the gift of freedom that
is so valuable.
This is what needs to be done by the
post-independence generation in fact, that is appreciate, recognize
and celebrate independence is priceless. In fact, the generation of
today is not the difficulty, hardship and bitterness period before
independence, both the British colonial period or even the days of
the Japanese occupation during World War II.
Post-independence generation only
know about the period before independence from the history books.
Maybe for not being able to appreciate the true meaning of freedom
itself, then there is one of the post-independence generation that
takes the simple celebrations negara.Adayang consider the date of
August 31 just a mere holiday. This is indeed very sad because of the
lack of appreciation of the real independence could invite the
invaders back to our country.
We should realize that this can
happen colonialism no longer the same as the form of military
occupation as a time. Although this old form of colonialism still can
happen as we saw happen in some countries in the world, the fact is
more dangerous new form of colonialism. This occurs because the new
form of colonialism subtle, hidden and unnoticed. Among the new form
of colonialism is colonialism thought, culture and economy.
For this reason, the
post-independence generation should be more cautious than the
previous generation. Military attack can be seen and challenged
again. The question is if the attacks carried out in the form of
thought, culture and economy, how can we block it?
Post-independence generation that was
poisoned thinking through a new form of colonialism will fight for
Western values that are contrary to Islamic values and
Eastern values. The fact is that Western civilization had begun
eroding its noble values. There is no longer true Western
civilization, that there might be "perbiadaban" Western
uphold the values of the inverse of the family institution and
social damage.
Poisoning thought of this new
form of colonialism in turn can lead to contamination of the culture.
RakyatMalaysiaamat proud of the diversity of cultures and customs of
the various nations. This uniqueness can be eroded if the colonial
culture that impressed from the process of globalization brought
negative cultures evils.
Economic colonization and no less
dangerous. If we look back to the economic downturn in the last years
of the 1990s, we are grateful that we do not make the same mistakes
as other countries in the East Asia region to receive "drug"
offered by the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. What
suspected "drug" actually "poison" which is used
as a weapon to control and restrain the sovereignty of an independent
state.
Islam actually provide some
approach that is able to ensure the continuity of the independence
enjoyed by our country. These approaches should be implemented by the
post-independence generation that is the majority of these
pendudukMalaysiahari. On the shoulders of this generation lies the
trust and the responsibility to ensure that our country will continue
to be independent and prosperous.
Islam was also suggested that we
prepare ourselves, society and country with any kind of power. In
other words, the forces that need to be built not only on the
military aspect, but also in terms of economic power, political, and
social science. Only the inner strength alone will be able to help
defend the country's independence.
Aspects unity should also be
given due consideration by the post-independence generation. In a
hadith, the Prophet s.a.w. said that: "Between a believer to
another believer is like a building, where one part of strengthening
the other." If you translated this tradition in konteksMalaysia,
clear to us that we need to create a perfect unity and agreement. If
we are divided and bickering among themselves, this would make it
easier for enemy aggression on our country.
It is important for the
post-independence generation to appreciate and understand the past.
The fall of the Melaka Malay Empire was due to internal disputes and
power struggles. As a result, the Portuguese attacked and
successfully colonize Melaka. Starting from the second black in 1511,
the country had to wait 446 years before the independence.
We took 446 years for the
independence. Now we feel it favors independence for 48 years. Are we
prepared to mortgage our independence again?
