Tq sir, it certainly brings back good memories of Zainal Alam and his jokes on radio malaya. Yes, there was a time when we were all brothers and sisters building a country we committed our future to. We were one under TAR, regardless of religion or skin colour.

The words of the song in English were simpler:

"Vote, vote, vote. Everybody vote.
Remember, 27th. is the date.
Don't forget, that you must not be late,
Vote wisely, vote with care, everybody vote." ... rgds.

  1. Your blog is a land of contrast. It makes me happy, it makes me sad, it makes me angry but today it makes me cry…

    Bro… if my future seems dark, your past by contrast looks rosier than ever… May God bless you…

    “Just as we should reject the thoughtless equation of progress and hope, so we need to distinguish between nostalgia and the reassuring memory of happy times, which serves to link the present to the past and to provide a sense of continuity. The emotional appeal of happy memories does not depend on disparagement of the present, the hallmark of the nostalgic attitude. Nostalgia appeals to the feeling that the past offered delights no longer obtainable. Nostalgic representations of the past evoke a time irretrievably lost and for that reason timeless and unchanging. Strictly speaking, nostalgia does not entail the exercise of memory at all, since the past it idealizes stands outside time, frozen in unchanging perfection. Memory too may idealize the past, but not in order to condemn the present. It draws hope and comfort from the past in order to enrich the present and to face what comes with good cheer. It sees past, present, and future as continuous. It is less concerned with loss than with our continuing indebtedness to a past the formative influence of which lives on in our patterns of speech, our gestures, our standards of honor, our expectations, our basic disposition toward the world around us.”
