I watching the news just now on the news coverage of the Thaipusam celebration....
I might say, i was very happy to see malays, chinese and also foreigners walking about and look happy being there.... no feeling of 'uncomfortableness'... non racist feelings.... all comfortable being Malaysians!
But how far are the rest of Malaysians respecting each others' religion and beliefs???
I think there are so many hypocrite (the big 'H' word) in Malaysia...
Yes..... they are so called respecting other religion or race or belief but amongst themselves they ... well u know...
Will this change? will we change? i know.... lets not answer this now as we all are or we all will eventually be the 'H' word.... unless we respect ourselves....respect each other and trully respect humans of all level...all race...all religion...and all belief!
Me and wife (Indian) was reading one of the local newspapers today and there was an article on mix religion marriage.... one famous couple is Shah Rukh Khan(Islam) and Wife Gouri (Hindu)..
SRK married Gouri on 25 October 1991 for obvious LOVE reasons and understood that respecting each other is the key of ones happiness in life.... They got 2 children Aryan Khan and Suhana.. (i almost name my son Sheikh Faroque Khan..imagine that... his name is Sheikh Sharat Shah)
SRK and Gouri did one thing that impossible to do here in Malaysia... both got married without changing each other's religion... and the marriage was perform in a hindu customs... "Every religion has its own values and i respect it" says SRK.
To respects each others religion SRK puts his Quran and Gouri's hindu deity next to each other and teaches their children to respect all religion and belief in ONE God!
There was a movie "Jodhaa Akbar" based on a true story of the great Mughal emperor that ruled Hindustan, Jalaluddin Mohammad Akbar, and the fiery young Rajput princess, Jodhaa.
Set in the sixteenth century, this epic romance begins as a marriage of alliance between two cultures and religions, for political gain, with King Bharmal of Amer giving his daughter's hand to Emperor Akbar.
When akhbar accepts the marriage proposal, little does he know that in his effort to strengthen his relations with the Rajputs, he would in turn embarking on a new journey - the journey of true love. From the battlefield where the young Jalaluddin was crowned, through the conquest that won him the title of Akbar the Great, to winning the love of the beautiful Jodhaa.
Jodhaa Akbar traces the impressive graph of the mighty emperor and his romance with the defiant princess. With Hirthik Roshan as Akbar and my favourite Aishwarya Rai as Jodhaa... go and get the dvd at your local stores..... :)
