Got To Hide, Again.

The confrontational days between Indonesia and Malaysia was from 1962-1966. The undeclared war was Indonesia's attempts to destabilise the new Federation of Malaysia. Indonesia ended the confrontation because of their domestic problems. A treaty of Peace was signed on August 11,1966 .

The question now is, would there be another confrontation? This looming threat cannot be taken lightly. The Indonesians were very vocal and their actions, frightening. Their jihad, if one can call that, is very real. Unlike the jihad waged on our Indian neighbours by a group of clowns of section 23 in Shah Alam! They had openly accused Malaysia of 'trespassing' on their customs and cultures. I hope common sense prevail during this testing situation. We cannot blame entirely the Indonesians for being testy. We might have taken too much for granted!

We need to retrace our steps and find amiacable solutions to these problems that had stood out like a sore thumb. Let's restore amiacable relations again! We need them as much as they need us. Simple as that!

It goes beyond the confines of human knowledge if we continue with our conflicts. Nothing good would come out of it. Civilized people do not have judgemental attitudes. Civilized people do not pass judgement by the roadside. Civilized people sit down to talk and solve. Are we there yet?
