Is Malaysia a sovereign and independent country? Or is it just the Federation of Malaya masquerading as Malaysia. After 51 years it is amusing that such a question still exists, after 51 years of Nation Building the issues of identities should have been resolved long ago – it is really most unfortunate Malaysia today still has the issues of its identity unresolved. This is much more serious than facing the mid-life crisis, handled wrongly it may become a full blown problem which may disintegrate the whole nation.
