Bad News Malaysia

So many things going on in this world but i would like to highlight one news by cnn which is base on "Trafficking in Persons Report" made by the Department of State, USA. I was so shocked after reading the news and browsing the report, because my beloved Malaysia is in Tier 3..! WTF... That is the worst place u can be in that report. Even India, Cambodia and Zambia (they actually rhymes, hehe) did better than us. The list is on page 44 and details bout malaysia in on page 145 of the report.

So, whose fault is this..? Government..? yep, most of it but not all. According to the report, malaysia already on the tier 2 watch list which was a very clear warning for the government to take some actions but sadly things got worst. Hope YB Fong Chan Onn realized this and take immediate actions or pay the price. This is not the first time malaysia being in tier 3 list, as in 2001 same thing happened but we bounced back to tier 2 the year after, so I believed we can repeat it again and perhaps do better.

I've discussed with friends before about similar matter on how racist some malaysians are toward foreign workers where most of us prefered to think positively that this is not yet serious but me being realistic, keep on criticizing my fellow malaysians. However, i really don't expect malaysia to be placed so bad in the trafficking report.

what does racist have to do with human trafficking? em, hard to explain... i've stuck here quite a while and i decided not to continue as i need to go for the 'last coffee.' U guys can think for yourselves. or maybe i'll continue later.
