Happy Birthday Malaya!!

You are going to be 50 years old in 2 days!!! Malaysia as we know it today is a thriving developing country, often considered a “role model” by its Southeast Asian neighbours for its economic and political stability, multicultural harmony and steady progress. 31st August 2007 marks the 50th year of this country's independence from British colonialism and the day the joyful, triumphant shouts of “Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka!” resonated throughout the nation as Malaya's first Prime Minister, Allahyarham Tunku Abdul Rahman stood on a podium at Merdeka Square doing the same.

The name Malaya was then changed to Malaysia when the country was officially made a federation of 13 states including Sabah and Sarawak. Article 1(1) of the Federal Constitution states that "The federation shall be known, in Malay and English, as Malaysia". Although Singapore broke away and became a nation of its own in 1965, the rest of the states have remained firmly together, combining to make Malaysia the harmonious melting pot of cultures it is today.

I'm bored...
So I found some funny stuff...
I'm generous enough to share with you...
haha...
"Roses are red, some willows weep, please leave your message, after the beep..."
"I'm not here, so say goodbye, or leave a message, and I'll reply"
"Roses are red, violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet, and so are you
The roses have wilted, the violets are dead,
The sugar bowl's empty, and so is your head
The roses stink, sorta like sheep
But leave your name, number, and message after the beep
The roses are molding, the violets are rotten
And I might call you back, if I haven't forgotten "

Strange BUT True....

In 2001, a British newspaper reported that a contractor painting Queen Elizabeth II's bathroom had noticed that she had a rubber duck that wore a crown. Sales of rubber ducks in Britain promptly increased by 80% .

In 1992, a ship container washed overboard into the Pacific Ocean, releasing its cargo of 29,000 rubber ducks and assorted bath toys. They have since sailed the oceans, and have been spotted from Australia to Japan to Iceland to North America. Many have expected to wash up on British shores this year. Others may sail the world for as long as the next 100 years.
