Back in 1957, it was the glorious moment when Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra declared the independence of the county by shouting "Merdeka!" for 7 times.
Previously, Malaysia or Tanah Melayu was a foremost trading center of the region. The straits of Malacca was known as the most strategic path for traders which connect the east and west of the region. The land has been colonized a few times before it gains it's independence, starting from the Portuguese, Dutch, British and the Japanese.
After a series of battle of the colonies, Malaya had retrieved his right to rule his own country. It was gain in such a diplomatic way and no other country have achieved independence in such a way before. Since then, the economics climate gradually change from-time-to-time until what we can see today.
As the person who born after the independence, I can't really express the feeling of the independence. However, I am proud to be part of the country, a part who will contribute to the success of the Nation towards the Vision 2020.
Happy 51th Birthday Malaysia.

J'aime beaucoup écrire et je suis assez bon dans ce domaine. Mais chaque fois que j'essaie d'écrire une histoire ou quelque chose je pars bien, mais il finit toujours par jeter - je peux ne semblent jamais finir. . . Parfois, j'ai une bonne idée de ce que j'aime vraiment, mais c'est juste difficile pour moi d'écrire une histoire au sujet et de continuer. J'aime l'écriture créative, mais maintenant, j'ai presque abandonné parce que je ne peux même pas écrire une histoire courte. AIDE! Que dois-je faire?. Tous les bons sites d'écriture créative pour m'aider à démarrer? Des livres?. Je suis désespéré!.
