Touched down, with full of excitement and also expectation about this city which is just 45minutes away by flight from Kuala Lumpur. Singapore is such a beautiful and clean country and everything here are so well organized especially their public transportation. Well, this was not my first time here but don't why this small country never fail to amazed me every time when I am here!

I am so sorry that I can't help it to compare Singapore with my lovely country, Malaysia! Singapore, a very small country compare to Malaysia; both also under British colonial rule last time; was also part of us before becoming an independent republic. BUT how come Singapore can outgrew Malaysia by leaving us so far behind from them!

Anyway, I am still PROUD to be MALAYSIAN! I^-^I
Malaysia, Tanah tumpahnya darahku!
*Malaysia, the land where my blood has spilt!

Besides than my own mother tongue and English, I can speak one additional language that known as Bahasa Malaysia *Malaysian Language And I am so proud that I can speak, write and sing in this beautiful language. Then, I can also eat variety of foods in Malaysia; from North Indian food to South Indian food and from Malay food to Nyonya food. And 'Curry Mutton' is one of favorites! ;)

And do you know what make Malaysia so beautiful? Of course, nothing but the Malaysian! Words are hard to describe about Malaysian, let's look at the pictures below and you will understand about the beauty of being Malaysian:-

We share a common language that help us to understand each other. We have different culture and believes but that didn't stop us for being together as one community; we are taught to respect each other since we were young! ;) That's why Malaysian are so UNIQUE and special!

God bless Malaysia! ;)
