Reading is not our culture
Reading is known to be a good method of gaining knowledge. Reading can be done anywhere....any place that u have in mind...but wut i have observed here in Malaysia, we dun have the same spirit like those in overseas
Im not implying that those fellas are better than us..not at all...but, they have this attitude which i respect. those whites..and even black...they are rarely seen without books tightly gripped in their hands.
Some people might say that guys dun like books. They are allergic to it. I could not give a nod to this idea as sign of agreement. Guys or gurls are equal (to the some extent) Books are not meant only for gurls or guys who are gurlish!
My opinion is based on my observation. I could see a guy...with shoulder-level hair were attentively reading a book...he dint appear to be a sissy or sum1 that we mite call gurly!
But this scenario is different in Malaysia. When u take a public transport... do count how many bus-takers are reading...there hardly any. wut they do basically staring at the skyscraper building which they have seen for million times. Enjoying the view of our beloved city has no harm doing...its juz that we still have tons of fruitfull stuff to be digested in the book
Im in an agreement if sum1 wud say that i've juz seen those guys in the bus...there are lot of Malaysian who are reading....but not showing off...but, how many are they? 10 percents wud be my bet and i still consider its too high!
Im not implying that i do read a lot...wut i want to convey here is that, we as Malaysians should do something... Something that would benefit ourself and our country, generally.
2020 is coming and we seem to be drifted away from the track that we should be taking. Be prepared for the new breakthroughs..InsyaAllah we'll succeed
