Terima kasih atas pertanyaan tentang pemakaian saya itu....
saya kan dah maklum sebelum ini!Say ni lahir di Klebang Besar,Melaka,Bandar yg penuh bersejarah.Dalam undang undang "The Straits Settlement" dahulu telah nyata menarifkan dlm undang-undang ,iaitu orang-orang yg berlahir di tempat-tempat ini : Pulau Pinang,Ipoh,Melaka dan Johor Bahru konon kononnya akan diberi status pra-bumi;tapi hampanya sehingga tarikh ini saya masih menanti-nanti pemulihan status saya itu.Oleh kerana itu saya masih menunggu berita baik itu serta akan memilih satu tarikh yg penuh bersejarah itu utk saya berkhatan(sunat).
Undang2 yg termaktub di dalam itu ada membenarkan potongan piawaian
sebanyak 10% potongan harga ke atas pembelian rumah di tanah air ini.Di mana saya telah pun menghayati keistimewaan ini.
Walaupun saya berpakaian baju Melayu tetapi saya masih tetap berjiwa bangsa Malaysia berketurunun bangsa China.Keluarga dan sahabat saya memahami tentang pendirian saya.Mereka juga yang menyaksikan gambar ini diambil!
Bagi saya pemakaian baju bangsa kaum lain atau pun memakan jenis makanan kaum lain bukannya
sesuatu perkara yg anih di Tanah Air kita.Kita bebas utk melakukan sesuatu mengikut sanubari hati kita selagi perasaan sentimen kaum lain tidak tersinggung.

How is the "feel" of the potong of your little "brother" skin? Feeling very good, hah!No more get in the way of every day cleaning,don.

You guys probably need to carry out a comparative study on the pre and post "sunat"... actually mine is NOT sunated and who says I cannot wash properly... actually without sunating the feeling is better and actually God gave us this piece of skin and now you guys want to cut it off... must be out of your mind... never know if God is offended for defacing His artwork...

Okay... back to the Baju Melaya... as the word is Baju Melayu... I am a Chinese and a Malaysian and I am proud of it. I may wear a Baju Melayu but I will not practise the customs of a Melayu. But Don Yoo has a choice to wear the baju... After all he is Anak Malaysia and he can wear a Sari (oops, a Dhotti) and a turban for all he wishes... Let us cheer him for his strong spirits and wish that one day his pra-bumi status will be instituted. I for one has lost hope long2 ago even though this Don Corleone is straits borne... more likely to be born between the malaysian and Indonesia borders in the starits of malacca... I am like a no man's child.. di tendang sini di tendang sana... bagaimana saya dapat spirit nationalisme and be a good citizen and yet at the same time be second class??? Thank God I am old but what about my children and theirs???

That is absolutely fine if Don want to wear any ethnic clothing, let not be emotional about it, so long as it is not a force custom on every Malaysian whether bumi or non-bumi.

As you all probably know it is a part of our multi- racial malaysia's custom, and has nothing to do with masuk this or that.

we can only wish that Don one day will reach his wish of achieving a pra-bumi status soon in his birth country instead of 3rd class citizen treatment.
