time management

whether in a government office full of malay beauracrats or dealing with malay businesspersons or attending a malay kenduri or wedding or some sort of frivolous functions, why is that, the malays seem unable to grasp the simple concept of being on time, or on schedule or whatever. it is ridiculous that some take this as a virtue when we all know that it's one of the essentials of efficiency. so the malays are likened to the italians, biar bodoh tapi bergaya or simply bodoh sombong. is this our heritage??????. who was the first malay who was so popular in not keeping to schedule so much so that an entire race ape him????, or her??//. this is the person responsible for our backwardness, so you arch-nationalist malay historian or anthropologist, please find this person as he/she deserves to be the ultimate malay hero/heroine, in my book anyway. much better than hang tu or hang ni, whichever way you are inclined.
