The Colourful Malaysia(n)

In celebration of the country's 48th Independence and in keeping with my earlier promise to blog in Malay, I will now humbly attempt to blog with the assistance of my 'other' blog personalities.
I am sure you will able to make up who they are not requiring me to review them explicitly.

Sempena sambutan ulang tahun kemerdekaan yang ke-48 dan dengan tekhad menunaikan janji saya untuk ber'blog' dalam bahasa kebangsaan.
Izinkan juga saya untuk mengundang 'rakan-rakan' seperjuangan saya untuk menyampaikan sepatah dua kata.
Daripada cara pertuturan mereka, nescaya tuan puan dapat mengenalpasti siapa kah mereka, tidak perlu saya namakan mereka secara terbuka.

Semasa kita bersama-sama menyambut festiviti kemerdekaan negara kita yang ke-48 ini, sila memperizinkan saya untuk mengambil kesempatan ini, dengan hati yang amat tulus, untuk mengotakan janji saya untuk memperbahasamelayukan 'blog' saya.
Saya akan memperlaksanakan percubaan ini tanpa kompromi dengan menfituritasikan barisan panel jemputan saya.
Adalah dengan penuh keyakinan, saya berpendapat bahawa kekalian tidak akan bermasalah untuk mengidentifikasikan identiti-identiti para panel ini, daripadi penganalisisan sifat kepertuturanan mereka.

Jom, jom , jom! Jom kito semue sambut merdeka nie ramai-ramai.
Iskh, iskh, iskh, dah tua jugak malaysia nie, dah 48 tahun dah usianya.
Tapi pak cik tua lagi, tu sebab nye hangpa, cucu-cucu pak cik kalian kena dengar cakap pak cik ya.
Masa kite dok sambut merdeka nie, baik jugak pak cik ambik sempat peluang ini, kata omputeh, untuk blog dalam bahasa melayu.
Sebab pak cik dah janji pada cucu-cucu dulu, bak kata pepatah "... manusia dipengang dengan janjinya", baik jugak sebelum pak cik nyanyuk sat lagi.
Pak cik nie sebenarnye memang dah tua dah, dah tak larat lagi nak tulis banyak-banyak, nak cakap banyak-banyak tu lain cerita la.
Maklumlah mata dan jari-jemari pak cik nie dah tak seperti dulu, nasib baik ader kenalan pakcik yang sudi menulis blog nie sesama pak cik.
Tok sah la pak cik bagi tahu nama depa tu ya, pak cik percaya cucu-cucu bijak untuk mengenali siapakah depa tu semua.
Selamat membaca ya cucu-cucu pak cik.

This all started when few weeks ago I bumped into some blogs that suggested Malaysian bloggers to come together and attempt to blog in Malay, at least for a day, to celebrate the country's 48 years of independence.
I took up the challenge personally and was determined to blog in Malay and ended up doing it with a twist.

It's really been a long while since I actually sat down and really wrote or composed anything in Malay.
I mean this have been the language I grew up with (apart from English and Mandarin), the language I studied and went to exam with and made some of my earliest friends with.
But since university, where English was the medium, it became had less and less opportunity to use the language in writing that often anymore. I still speak it though but not composing a formal writing.

So when I actually had to write in Malay, I found myself struggled through! I had difficulties describing the accident in my police report!
Just to think that I used to write in Malay like nobody's business in high school!

Anyway, wanted to take this opportunity to write something back in Malay and hopefully at the same time demonstrate how colourful our beloved country is.

Happy Birthday Malaysia!
