Lee Kuan Yew berdarah Melayu. Tak percaya?

Ini posting untuk kengkawan yang bertanya saya tentang latar belakang Lee Kuan Yew.

Kita tahu LKY ini petah berbahasa Melayu selain dari Mandarin, Inggeris, beliau juga boleh berbicara Hakka, bahasa vernacular.
Beliau ada berdarah Melayu.

His Peranakan roots

His mother’s family was Baba/Nonya (Peranakan aka mixed Malay/Chinese ancestry)… his father was of Hakka ancestry, his great grandfather having come from China. He never mentioned his mother’s family origins to my knowledge.

"We Straits-born Chinese are known as the Peranakan – the ladies are called nonyas while the men are called babas. We are the descendants of the early Chinese in the Straits Settlements of Penang, Malacca and Singapore… Malay influence, because of mingling and intermarriage, has produced a unique Peranakan culture and set of customs distinct from those of the Chinese community who came from China.”

Learning to be Chinese

For Lee, Chineseness was something of an acquired skill and later a political necessity. He was not brought up as a Chinese with a focus on China, but as a baba who looked to England. His language, food and culture were not that of a Chinese. And he followed the conventional career path of a baba. Not for him shopkeeping or trading. He went to London to study law. And so Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore became Harry Lee of Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge. His father had given him and two of his brothers English as well as Chinese names

Kenapa DAP Sarawak keluar dulu dari Pakatan: Taktik Lee Kuan Yew masih menyengat!

Apabila DAP Sarawak umum keluar PR, ramai yang garu kepala?
Apa dajjalnya DAP tidak sukakan PAS di Sarawak namun di Selangor pula suka.

Ini macam kasihkan bini bila di Selangor, bencinya pula di Sarawak.

Boleh ke benci kan seseorang itu berpandukan kat mana Bini itu boleh dipermainkan?

Aiyah, apek satu Malaya sudah tahu, DAP memang tidak suka kan PAS. Ini macam kes budak2 lah apek,

DAP sebenarnya tidak mahu dipersalahkan kalau mereka keluar pakatan. DAP mahu mencucuk PAS sampai PAS terpaksa ambil keputusan keluar dari PR.

Ini sama lah dengan kes mendiang Lee Kuan Yew yang kononnya menangis bila ditendang keluar oleh Tunku Abdul Rahman walhal sebenarnya ini semua game plan LKY dari awal lagi keluar dari Malaysia, dan tidak mahu dipersalahkan oleh rakyat Singapura ketika itu.


Baca helah DAP di Sarawak

World Map of Happiness: Does Malaysia make to the list of the top 20 countries?

Guy Kawasaki pointed out a very interesting article – The World Map of Happiness, listing out 20 of the most happy country in the world. This article is produced by Adrian G. White, a psychologist at the University of Leicester.

What is the definition of happy here? One may asked. According to ScienceDaily:

Participants in the various studies were asked questions related to happiness and satisfaction with life. The meta-analysis is based on the findings of over 100 different studies around the world, which questioned 80,000 people worldwide. For this study data has also been analysed in relation to health, wealth and access to education.

And there you go, the 20 most happy countries in the world.

Malaysia at 17 beats Singapore which is not in the list. This report is prior to the demise of its founding father, LKY. I guess the Singaporeans are a lot happier when the get out Singapore for a holiday in Malaysia. An we Malaysians become less happy when these Singaporeans leave their country and start littering around.

Sebab Singapura maju:

Singapura bagus sebab:

1. ada GST sejak tahun 1984;
2. Harga kereta paling mahal di rantau ini, malah termahal di dunia;
3. ISA dikekalkan;
4. Rakyatnya berhemah, takut untuk mengutuk dan memfitnah kerajaan;
5. Macam2 cukai yang paling tinggi dikenakan terutamanya cukai pendapatan;
6. Negara Singapura sekangkang kera je;

Nak tambah lagi? Silakan. Ini dari saya pula:

7. Sebab x da PKR dan PAS
 

Kematian Lee Kuan Yew: Dan siapakah semi finalist......

Tahniah Tun Dr Mahathir, Anwar dan Lim Kit Siang kerana menjadi last few men standing.

Pemergian yang telah berlaku termasuk Mendiang Karpal, Musyidatul Am, LKY. dan rahsia2 yang kita ingin tahu namun tidak akan tahu...


Adakah semifinalists akan masih berdiri tegap selepasa DS Najib? Atau...

Kita saksikan lah...

2 dari 5 hakim kes Anwar Syaitan Gay

Benarkah 2/5 hakim itu gay?

Quaestion: What does 1 gay judge say to another?
Answer: Let's  TRY each other.

 

Nurul Izzah: Syiok masuk penjara rupanya.

Seterusnya: Syiok, Helen Ang dan SpotTheBloggers

Dulu kapal selam x leh selam kini Kapalterbang Kontot pulak....

Sekali imbas kapalterbang ini macam konto aje, Boleh ke ia terbang?
Macam tak percaya je,
Kini dipamerkan di LIMA 2015

Selebihnya: Dsini. KONTOT

Nurul Izzah dianggarkan boleh dihukum 10 tahun kerana menghina keputusan mahkamah

Tindakan Nurul yang anggap amat bodoh dengan memanggil 5 Hakim sebagai syaitan akan membawa dirinya mengikut jejak langkah bapanya ke penjara.

Kerana hukuman ini dianggar 2 tahun satu hakim maka Nurul mungkin akan masuk kedalam selama 10 tahun,
