I was watching a rugby game live on TV the other day with a couple of friends when they started a conversation, so I decided to eavesdrop.
Apparently the first friend had a point to say:
‘Ragbi Malaysia tak kuat plak, tak penah dengar pun’
The second friend, for some reasons that are still vague to me responded:
‘Ala hockey team Aussie pun, tak penah dengar'
Australian men’s hockey team has a superior international record, having won the gold medal in the last Olympic Games in Athens. They have been consistently ranked in the top four nations in the world for more than 30 years. Just recently they whipped the Malaysian team to seal the coveted Sultan Azlan Shah Cup for the fifth time in the tournament’s history. Tak penah dengar?

nak kena tempeleng budak tu.
they say if you go places, get to know their culture. if you ask me, if you go places, get to know what sports they play, for sports is the new word for culture.
Agree. At least, broaden your mind, get to know the happenings of the world, stuffs that make into headlines. I mean, being a medical student doesn't mean you shouldn't bother to know what's the price of crude oil right? Same goes, you can loath sports if u'd like to, but please don't tell me you have no idea Nicol Ann David is currently the top squash player in the world. It's as simple as that. It's too easy not to be ignorant. Come on, open your eyes, can you?
