Merdeka Written by Julius. , Sunday, August 30, 2009 at 8:53 PM, in Labels: celebration

Tomorrow is Malaysia's Independence's day. A truly holy day to all of the Malaysian. Some would prolly spend around at KLCC or Dataran Merdeka, counting down or so.

After achieving Merdeka 52 years ago, the country grew so much that it began to be gain worldwide recognition. Until today, young generation have to study history to learn how hard the local people and the army fought for Merdeka. We were to understood and appreciate the value of Merdeka from the past leaders and citizen.

Back then, I look at Merdeka as to just, "Yay, it's holiday". But not until few years later, history showed us how important Merdeka is and how important it plays it's role for today. Hence in general, independence allowed us to walk freely without fear of war, able to study with certainty, able to live a life in peace and with equality.

Therefore, the current leaders play such a vital role where they have the abilities to create great impact into young generation. A leader never worries about his own benefit but he is to worry about the people who followed him. His is giving the ability to create a vision for the future. He has the ability to add value his followers. A leader doesn't serve his own purpose but his people.

How does this relevant with Independence? We all know that we were united under one strong nation, how important is that, the current leaders must set the goal straight as bearing in mind, the leaders should look into the future and set the road for the young generation to keep moving forward, and lift off the barriers between the races, the unity shall remain strong and each time, Independence will not only shows that this country gain its freedom but also with unity of the people in which it conveys the message of strong unity means stronger nation.

Happy Independence's day to all Malaysian.

MERDEKA.
