There are lot of questions have been thrown out by Dr. Shardy regarding ' Are We 'Merdeka'.
He say,
Are we 'merdeka' when we fail to understand and respect the rights of others?
Are we 'merdeka' when we still implement the administration system that was founded and propagated by colonist or western countries?
Are we 'merdeka' when our teenagers throw out the babies like a rubbishes?
Are we 'merdeka' when our children have less respect to their parents?
Different people have different view on 'merdeka'. Some say it physically independent but some say it mean mentally.
In my opinion, it depends on individual. Those question is mainly about lost of moral quality, actually it happen anywhere. It talking about mind independent. If your mind is mature enough and be responsibility on yourself then you are independent. Therefore it is individual evaluation. If we say we fail to understand and respect the rights of others, then how about those who understand and respect the rights of others?
Anyway, it just a symbolic gesture to show that the British Empire has agreed to no longer rule reign over Tanah Melayu.
