Eat Like There's No Tomorrowpeople eat to live,Malaysian live to eat!! Char Kuew Teow,Nasi Lemak,Asam Laksa.All these words are supposed to trigger the saliva glands automatically before you can even says "flapjack".The first step to be Malaysian is to make FOOD your motivation in life!!.Drive for 2 hours to look for the best sate in town or practice in front of the mirror till you have perfected that longing look on your face when your friend us easting steaming hot Curry Noodles.Remember that skipping a meal is a taboo(unless you're saving stomach space for an upcoming buffet, in that case the kiasu factor overrides the food factor)
Drive Like MalaysianThe Boy Form Oz has finally grown up and conquered the world by playing Wolwerine.Coming from a big background of the theater and TV series, People Magazines Sexiest Man Alive has worked hard from acting in small,unknown musicals till he got his big break in X-men. This year he hosted the academy Awards.The well know philanthropies is a big supporter of nobel prize winner Muhammad Yusnus, and recently narrated a video for the Global Poverty Project and another documentary about global warning.He used twitter for charity, like when he posted that he would donate $100000 to one individuals favorite non-profit organization.He is also a patron of the bone marrow Donor Institute in Australia.Looks like Wolverine has a big,gentle heart
Manglish Expert We like extra syllables in our conversation so feel free to add extra lah,leh,liao,lor or ah at the end of every sentence.Speaking like that make you feel more at home and familiar with that person.If not,They'll most prob call you a snob,Pronounce your R's as L's and enunciate every word harshly.Watch Phua Chu Kang and practice this on your local mixed rece stall "uncle ar'gof me cheaper la...."
Malaysian TimingThere even a term invented for our concept time-Malaysian Time.Note to your self that you're never ever in any case come early unless it's to queue up for big sale or freebies.Fell free to be at least 15 minutes late.and if the person you're meeting call you up repeatedly say to him/her "i'm coming,i'm coming" although you're still at home watching your tvb dramas.
Our Road ,Our RuleWe've got our own rules,don't you know?? Malaysian
like to go by the traffic light rule.Green means go,Yellow means speed up,Red means drift drift remember,its all about your own risk,ya? Double parking is also unique Malaysian skill.Where your mission is to squeeze your car into single nook and corner you can find at the parking lot.If there was an Olympic event for double parking,Malaysian are a shoo-in to win hands down.Practice with a smaller car first,then proceed with bigger sedans.remember that scratches are definetly grantee till you reach perfection
Tak Paham BahasaTo you noobs,this means many of us dont understand the language.if they say "NO LITTERING" it means you litter right beneath the signboard itself.If it says "NO SMOKING"feel free to smoke and add to the irony by smoking right under the signboard itself.In fact, you know what?? don't bother learning to read bahasa and just do what you feel like.it takes a whole lot of courage and guts to go against what sign says and do just that opposite.
Accident Happensyes they do,and when there are road accidents, its unspoken rule that you've gotta travel 10km per hour,slow down as much as you can to take a look and if you can,take picture! If you wanna be true malaysian,Stop your car behind the accident site and stand from afar abd take a look.Ista also advisable to take down the plate number of the car involved and buy lotery Toto'4D or "ma piao"
Never Buy Malaysianits a simple rule of thumb.Anything that is "BUATAN MALAYSIA" we never buy.It could be cars,accessories local product,we're staunch supporters of foreign product and never our own local product,unless money is driving force.Also ever wonder why malaysian women have great,board shoulders?it's from the exercise they get from pushing and wrestling the opponents during the malaysian mega sales carnival.That when they come out in big bunches to hunt..
