The image that decorates my header is the Malaysian flag, also known as Jalur Gemilang (which translates to Glorious Stripes in English).
This month, Malaysia will be celebrating it’s 50th year as an independent country. August is also the month of independence for Singapore (in fact, Singapore’s birthday is today; Happy Birthday Singapore!), Indonesia and India.
So, to commemorate Hari Merdeka, I will keep this header until 7 September 2007.
It was not my choice to be born in Malaysia, but it’s my choice to stay in Malaysia and remain a Malaysian. For all the good and bad, Malaysia is where my heart is and I love her so much.

NO doubt, Malaysia is the best place to stay, especially in Sabah

Agreed on the Malaysia part. And until I visit you in Sabah, I remain undecided on the second part

As much as I’m frustrated with the country sometimes, there’s only one place in the world that you can find these: mamak stalls!! Teh tarik! Roti canai!
