nai's rhetoric

when i was in secondary school, every once in a while there would be a guest speaker invited to address the school. every single time without fail when an ang moh steps up to the stage and makes his way towards the mike, a hushed silence would descent on the hall. it is note worthy that only other person capable of this feet was my draconian like discipline master. neighbourhood schools are a notorious bunch.
" eh eh.. ang moh leh... wah sibei sud.... wah wah wah "
wah ke lan lah.
whats up with this nation wide obsession about treating ang mohs as if they exist on a higher plane. i mean hello, this guy could be living in the ghetto's back home (think 1 room hdb) and here we are treating our own kind like second class citizens and them like heir to the throne.
my buddy james stopped going to his favourite kopitiam uncle at work after the uncle malfunctioned and failed to serve him his usual teh-o bing. 15 mins of waiting, the teh-o bing never came. what was kopi uncle doing? serving another a group of ang mohs.
seriously, what gives man.


" What's wrong with the world mama?
People living like aint got no mamas
I think the whole worlds addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that bring you trauma
Overseas yeah we tryin to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin
In the USA the big CIA the Bloodz and the Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And if you hatin you're bound to get irate
Yeah madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
You gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all"
