Group threatens to launch a ‘sweep’ of Malaysians

Sad to see our neighbour behaving like this. Anyway, I was in Bali last year when the Manohara case was still hot. When Balinese found out that we are Malaysian, they start to bombard us with so many question, wherelse, I've to admit, i was clueless of what happen. It wasn't a big thing in our so called "free" press.

Bali was fine, I'm not sure of other parts of Indonesia but i think those of us who travel there have pleasent experience as in general, they are friendly, expecially in tourist hot spots.

Anyway, this Bendera group is another set of Indonesians who thinks that by throwing faeces at our Embassy, I really sorry for you. It's just that, we Malaysians are not intimidated by you. We may even look down on you for behaving like a moron. Worse still, most Malaysians won't even know you exist.

Anyway, i think it's irritating how Indonesians react and feel threaten of Malaysia. Remember the Pendet dance issue? Then the abused maid case? Ganyang Malaysia?

Anyway, it's not 100% the fault of the Indonesian publics. I guess, it has to be their moronic media, they probably have a column dedicated to bashing Malaysia.
