child of the NEP

i was a child of the nep,among thousands snatched away from our mother's bosom, from the fringes of malaysia's emerging cities and small towns to the depth of its predominant jungles, we were coaxed to institutions such as mckk,rmc, sekolah menengah sains where the ritual of thought provocation commences, then packaged as a promising goods right after "o"levels, and freighted to various so called dominant nations, england, usa, australia, to be further grounded till a piece of paper is awarded, b.sc. , ba, mba, whatever and returned to be the instruments of progress that our political masters wish to engineer, as they themselves are too lazy and insufficiently suited to perform, pampered then discarded as we get lost in the maelstrom of having a life. never for a moment were we informed that to reach the apex, membership of any of the bn component parties is a must. man, what a letdown, seeing that 50 years later, your schoolchums who stayed behind and climb the political ladder are now running the roost, jeez , the nep, yeah it got me to london, but i could have done without it.
