Ok, the post you are about to read may offend some and totally reveal my latent racist and paranoid tendencies...so...if you feel you may get offended, please do bugger off and read Oliviasy's blog (ha ha) instead. Don't say I didn't warn you, ah.
In fact, this stuff is SO hot...I'm going to switch languages so orang luar yang berkenaan dan tidak berkenaan tidak boleh nak baca dan menimbulkan huru-hara. After all, these are just MY feelings and take on the whole thing, based on my horrible experience.
I must first, however, apologise for mangling our national language and my mother tongue in advance. Despite my score of A2 in my SPM examinations in 1991, I still suck. Don't even mention Syarifah Amani; let's not go there (haha).
Baiklah, you all ada perasan tak sejak kebelakangan ini, punyalah ramai "pelajar-pelajar" dari benua gelap yang datang ke sini dan merayau-rayau di sekitar bandar. Malahan (che wah, my BM not too bad lah), mereka yang sepatutnya berada di kuliah masing-masing, bekerja di tempat seperti TGIF dan merempat di merata-rata tempat. Ini takdelah jadi masaalah, cuma yang tidak menyenangkan saya adalah perangai setengah-setengah daripada JANTAN mereka yang KURANG AJAR. Case in point: (sorry, must switch back to English for literary efficacy and effect)...
I was walking around One Utama one afternoon last week, wanting to check out the sales by myself, coz god knows if I bring the kids and hubby, tak senang aku nak shopping! So, as I was walking from store to store, I noticed from the corner of my eye that this thuggish yet blingin' character was checking me out - which was creepy in itself - but he had begun to follow me. The quicker I walked, the quicker he walked! I practically RAN into Marks & Spencer, and there he was, like it was perfectly normal to be tailing some lone woman from one end of the mall to the other! I was really freaked out, and PISSED, because, a) I really wanted to buy something and look at clothes, and b) I get really ANGRY when I'm scared, don't know why, but some people are wired differently I guess. So I reckon he knew I knew he was following me - he was pretending to shop, for God's sake!, but I kept glaring at him. He then had the cheek to act like he just saw me, and proceeded to try and chat me up.
At which I raised my hand before he could finish (a la 'talk to the hand coz the face don't give a damn'), and said, "F**k Off, don't you dare talk to me and if you don't stop following me, I'll scream and get the security guards!".
That did it, and I was able to leave M&S without being trailed by this guy.
Now, my impression from this whole thing was that, a) he thought he was all that and a bagga chips, knowwhatI'msayin', b) Malaysian women MUST be easy, c) nobody is safe from harrassment.
Another case in point: Also at One Utama, I had the misfortune of lunching alone at TGIF a few weeks earlier and my waiter was this guy yang sama bangsa dengan penyangak tadi tu. The whole time he was 'serving' me, he gave me the distinct impression that he wanted to throw me down on the table, rip off my clothes, and eat me alive. Now, as flattering as that can be for some, for me it was just an invasion of my personal space and showed a lack of service training. I gave this guy my most withering aunty look like I could so totally see right through him, at which he stopped being a twat and served me properly. What was up with THAT? Do these people think they're hot or something???? I mean, gosh Will Smith is hot. But....hello????! Sheeeesh. Give me a break lah.
Now, please don't get me wrong. A prude I am not. Kinda like, been there, bought the tshirt, know whatI'msayin' But what offends me delicate little sensibilities is that...the sanctcity of the pick up...has been shattered! It wasn't like I was in some seedy night club looking to hook up, I was shopping in broad day light and eating in a family restaurant! Is there no shame?! No RESPECT?! No bloody COMMON SENSE? For God's sake, I even LOOK like somebody's harassed mother!
Back to the bigger problem, not that you all think that strange guys trying to pick me up at OU is a life and death situation for all to ponder on. The question is: kenapa kerajaan kita ni bagi dia orang ni masuk? AS IF lah dia orang ni pelajar legit. Please lah. Kenapa dia orang ni datang ke sini, dalam banyak-banyak tempat?
Mesti dadah punya pasal.
You see, ekonomi sini kan sudah bagus...yaddayaddayadda, you all know the storylah. Besok, tak lama lagi in the near future (sorry, was that statement redundant?), we're going to have a bigger drug issue in this country - when MY KIDS and YOURS are in their teens - an issue that could be NICKED IN THE BUD today, if only someone smart in the education department or immigration (good luck) would just STOP this madness. Look, I'm all in favour of people immigrating to better their lot, but when I observe young predatory males like these who are obviously smart/scheming enough to find a way out of their beleaguered countries to come here (and we've all seen Tears of the Sun and Blood Diamonds!), I beg to wonder how much culture they are bringing along. By culture, you know what I meanlah. Just look at the rising crime rate in Taman Desa and the reports in the dailies.
Ok, now that that's off my chest - I shall abruptly stop this diatribe. I will probably get into hot soup for all that I've said, but c'monlah.... we're all thinking it. Huh?

*Applause!!! Applause!!!* YOu're not alone in this. I see this with my own eyes every Sunday at Bukit Nenas. Worst still, in a place of worship. As for the "Malaysian" girls being easy, itu gua tak tau lah, but I guess they think Asian girls are easy because you see, ada banyak pompuan dari negeri Joy(I pulak ler yang kena alih bahasa, LOL!) kat tempat berhala tuh pi berkepit dengan diorang benua gelap. Tak kira lah, cantik ker tak, tua ker, muda, semua diorang sapu. Ada yang sampai terbunting dan menangis meronta-ronta (chewah!) pun ada. I'm serious. So, my conclusion is, these people think they are blardy hot because they somehow lump all Asian women to be easy lah. Only thing to do is, be vigilant and be smart.
Actually, as soon as I wrote this whole thing, I wanted to delete it coz I didn't want to offend anyone, but hecklah...it needs to be said. If you're wondering who JOY is, I suggest you read Post 3 onwards, she was the bane of my life at that time and I memang cukup MENYAMPAH dengan pompuan dari negara dia, krana dia orang ni takde kerja lain drp melacur and buat benda tak senonoh, while they're supposed to be CLEANING OUR HOMES! Ok, so I'm a hard cow, but I pay GOOD money to bring them over and they try and put one over on you, and I see it time and again with my neighbours, etc. Every Sunday, keluar melawa pakai lipstik macam kucing makan anak you tau tak! Ish! Lepas tu, jalan dengan anjing tak kutip anjing tu punya taik! Ok, ni dah jadi 'diatribe tribe lain' pulak dah, but you know lah what I mean.
Getting back to the men I was posting about, yes Ginseng, we all need to be vigilant and smart. Jangan tergoda! (eeew!)
I witnessed this phenomenon with a client of mine (from the same tribe as you have described) who happens to work in the O & G sector. It was disgusting to see him harrassing my poor assistant with telephone calls asking for dates and places to meet etc. My assistant was scared shitless but she managed to fend him politely, after awhile I think he got the message. It was a good thing that his assignment in the country was only a short while hence, we didn't encounter any problems once he left the country.
Btw, based on my current work experience and our dealings with the authorities, I think the immigration authorities are doing something about these ppl although not quite enuff. About a year ago, they deported like a hundred of them back home during a raid in a shipyard or something in one of the states.
Btw, you sure they loiter around Taman Desa cos that's where I live...Dun seem to see them around though. In any case, our neighbourhood has engaged 24 by 7 security patrol services in the last 2 years.
Shaz, apart from what is said about this guy who followed you at OU...although its scary, did you ever wonder that the guy was actually a MIX fm listener? May be he's just a fan unless he sent out a different vibe :)
No way, my friend! This guy didn't know me from Adam and probably thought I was an easy target!!!! Can't imagine WHY...!!?
With all due respect to MIX FM listeners, they/you are all a lovely bunch and would generally know my name and say, "Hi Shaz" before you all molest me! heeheehehee!
