RESPONSE TO ANTI-INDONESIAN BLOGS
THIS ARTICLE IS RESPONSE TO ANTI-INDONESIAN BLOGS THAT HAVE RECENTLY ARISED
I love Malaysia as a country. Five years of my life I spent there.
But there is something Malaysians should know. Most of Malaysians do not like criticism. However things are not %100 perfect in there.
1. SMALL TARGETS. Most of people are proud by just economically exceeding Asian or Muslim nations. Never comparing themselves with countries like UK, USA, France, and Germany. Why? Is it because they feel themselves as their slaves? Complex? Why don't my brothers/sisters from Malaysia set small targets, like competing with small nations?
2. IDEAL ISLAMIC STATE? Many Malaysians claim to be the ideal Muslim and having ideal Islamic state. I'm sorry, indeed only one thing is actually enough to prove it wrong: HUGE NUMBER OF HOMOSEXUALS that people don't even seem to be bothered by. You can't find many of them in Indonesia.
3. FATHERS RAPING DAUGHTERS. I couldn't read Malaysian newspapers too often because they were of full of rape news. And worst is many cases of rapes inside the family.
4. Is MALAYSIA a NATION? Just be honest? Is it a nation of Melayu or Chinese or Indian? This is the biggest problem of Malaysia. Like fuel it is very flammable. The balances are sensitive. Any time conflict between ethics can just simply arise. So, be careful while trying to criticize others, the fuel in your own hands might get a blaze.
5. LANGUAGE. Malaysian language is destroyed. There are no foreigners staying long time in Malaysia and learning Malaysian. They are content with English. But that's not the case in Indonesia. Despite all those difficulties in Indonesia, foreigners prefer to live here. And this case (failure in preserving the national language) is very shameful for Malaysia.
6. PATRIOTISM? Many of my friends went to watch the soccer match of Malaysian National Team VS Manchester United 4-5 years ago. And do you know what they faced? Malaysians were supporting MU against their own team. The same case was when Arsenal visited Malaysia. Some of my Malaysians brothers/sisters should decide what they are really proud of.
My point is not to criticize anyone. But I just want everyone to know, nobody is perfect. We should be aware of our weaknesses.
From foreigner who has lived in both countries more than 2 years.

It is not all bad, is it?
Although we complain about latest conditions about attire, dress, behavior, etc of youth, there are innumerable changes in good direction as well.
During Ruhnama Conference in Ashgabat, one of the taxi drivers told me these words:
“You see, there are 90 over students from 13 countries came to Ruhnama Conference. Actually their understanding of culture, moral values, respects to elders, civilization are not beyond Turkmens’. Turkmens are most civilized people in the world.
And our new president. He started his first foreign visit as president by visiting holy land. What does it mean? It means ‘People! Leave all the ideologies behind. We are new nation. Nation which believes Allah. Nation which only will move in the direction of Allah’s order.’
So, there is no point trying to look like someone else.”
And the conference itself was different story.
Roselyn from USA was crying when she was departing from airport. It was the best experience that she ever had probably.
I couldn’t even realize how far we developed.
Who knows, maybe it is the product of ‘Ruhubelentlik’ policy. Because, things take change in the course we desire them to be. Therefore we just have to be optimistic and instead of complaining, we better contribute.
After our years abroad, we realized the importance of our literature. That’s why we have this online publication, I believe.
Our literature is the best source for our ‘High spirituality’ (Ruhubelentlik) – our motivation. So, let’s keep reading…

People Wrote Second Volume of Ruhnama, says Niyazov
Ashgabat, 20 October 2006 (nCa) --- President Niyazov said Friday that although he wrote the first volume of Ruhnama, the second volume was mainly based on proposals sent to him by the citizens of Turkmenistan.
After the publication of the first volume, I received about 125000 letters from the citizens, said Niyazov.
