Raising My Flag Upside Down

3 08 2008

Dear fellow Malaysians,

Beginning from today, I will raise my Malaysia Flag upside down as a mark of protest. My fellow Malaysians has suffered enough by unjustified policies and flip-flop decisions by the government, not to forget unscrupulous politicking amongst politicians. This country has gone backward in so many aspects.

It has been a long-established custom for us, every August to raise our national flag as a proud Malaysian to mark our Merdeka Day Celebration. I would like to urge my fellow countrymen to keep doing the same this year but let us fly our beloved flag upside down.

The upside down flag is accepted as official signal of distress. By displaying it properly, it is not meant to be or it is not recognised as any type of disrespect.

As we were discussing the future of this country, we should realised that Men and Women of this beloved Malaysia begins to suffer more than they have too, some started to lose their jobs while others find it more and more difficult not to lose their sanity.

Some still cry over the lost of Sharlinie and the death of Nurin. These two unfortunate Malaysian are the future of our country and they have brought us together is so many ways; yet, despite the sorrow, what have we achieved?

If you have a reason to disagree with the manner the country is heading, then you have a cause.

Pak syeikh,
Akuu telah tonggang-terbalikkan 7 bendera Malaysia kita mengikut saranan tuan.
Dan setiapkali aku naikkan, aku sumpahseranahkan dengan laungan mentera ini:

Pengundi-pengundi Permatang pauh,
Kau bukan pelacur kelas bawah
atau kelas tinggi
atau kelas hadhari
nanti kita ganyang
biar mereka kecut
hina dan meraba-raba dalam api ini.
sesalkan yangmana patut kita sesalkan
tapi jangan kau berpaling arah
dan jangan jadikan dirimu dijadi mainan Pak Lah
Wahai pengundi-pengundi Permatang Pauh,
sekarang kita mulai bersumpah
cucikan arang dimuka anakmu ini
kerana disetankan lagi sekali.
Kini tibalah giliranmu
bukan untuk membela diri melulu
tapi untuk lancarkan serangan padu:
selesaikan mana yang patut engkau selesaikan
tetapi jangan kau rela dibikin macam binatang!

I will do the same on this 31 August 2008, infact I will hang it 9 days earlier to show my protest to the way the current government is handling the management of the country.

Let us mark on the 31 of August this year and the year to come, the independence of every rakyat from the clutches of UMNO/BN.

Dear Shieh

No, Shieh, I find that hard to do. I agree with you that we , the people are in distress. But our distress is because of OUR politicians and WE are responsibie for putting these individuals up there. When we are attacked by outsiders, then the country is in distressed

But we love our country. The flag represents our country.

I don’t think it is right for us to punish the flag for the damage caused by the greed, stupidity and the self interest of OUR politicians.

Why punish the nation for the fault of our politicians?

But I could do the upside down for the BN/UMNO/MCA/MIC flag anytime.

Our flag should be flow the right way up… until the nation is distressed by attack and war from outside.

This one, I beg to disagree with you.

I dont quite agree with flying our flag upside down. Kenapa menghukum bendera? Fly your flag the correct way. Its menghina bendera if you fly it upside down. Well its just my opinion. I have to disagree with you on this one.

I don’t know about the right or wrong of flying the flag upside down. However I agree with you, I am just very, very sad that this beloved country is being led to the dump but useless leaders.

And more so when they treat the rakyat as if we are stupid too. I can’t help the tears in my eyes when I think of where this country could be if we have not wasted the last few years.

Nope. Will not join Sheih on this one. True, our nation is definitely in distress but that is never an excuse to disrespect our nation symbol. Plus, who will help us if anyone other than ‘us’ ever caught this sign of distress?

Sheih,

Berat hati nak buat cara ni, bro. Kalau ‘distress signal’ patut di-utamakan, apa kata kita naikkan JG dengan satu jalur kuning di=atas. Mana lah tahu jika ’signal’ yang demikian dapat sambutan yang lebih mujarab.

Selain dari ini, apalagi yang patut di-buat? Hah! Kita hartalkan hari Merdeka dan meriakan Hari Malaysia pada 16th September bagi seluruh rakyat Malaysia (dan bukan untuk ahli politik yang tertentu sahaja).

Apabila sambutan pada 31 Ogos tidak di-sertai ramai, protes rakyat lebih menyerlah saperti PRU12 yang lepas. Biarkan ahli-ahli politik BN ke, PR ke berdiri sesama sendiri.

The flag is just a symbol,nothing more and nothing less.
It creates no effect even if it is held upside down.
The world is for all of us, but humans are greedy and land grabbers.
Human carves out countries and territories and fights for it.
To me , Malaysia or any country is just a piece of land.
The flag is just a territorial marking. Whats so great about it.
We are not angry at the flag as it is just a nothing , the flag itself is a non functional item. We are angry at the government and angry at incompetent policy makers.
Bring them down , bring those incompetent decision makers down.
Replaces them with someone else who will and who can do a better job.
As for me, i won’t be putting the flag.
As it is a symbol of greed , symbol of land grabbing on this place named as earth.
Another well good reason is that some of us are second class citizen.
I am one of them, the second class citizen.

Thank you

Aiseh, Pak Sheih and all you fellas … the flag does not represent the people in power; the flag represents the rakyat. We, as a group of human beings, gather together under this flag. Spit on the present leaders in power all you want, but they are not what the flag is all about. We (well, some of us) elected them to represent us — just as the flag represents us — but it doesn’t mean the flag represents them. So please, lah, don’t disrespect our flag.

why dont fly BN / umno flag upside down instead, thats more relevant dont you think?
Anyhow i noticed the kelantan flag is on the right way up, which could mean on the state level (barisan rakyat wise) everything is ok but we’re at crisis on the national level due to barisan national.

Aiyoh… I think some people get it wrong.

Hanging the flag upside down is a universally accepted sign of distress. It has nothing to do with disrespecting the flag. Its a disrespect when you step on it, burn it, deface it or worst of all, put KJ’s picture on or close to it.

I’ll support sheih but is there a possibility that I’ll be hanged upside down if I am caught hanging the flag upside down?

Championing justices for Malays..Chinese or Indians and other races are not inn the spirit of a united Malaysia for Malaysians.
It is exactly what UMNO or BN are doing….playing race and religion politics.
When I read a message….talking about what race is suffering ..this or that..it is very sad….so many eyes are still shut towards a Malaysia for Malaysians.
If one is sincere and not a racialist..stop identifying each race and start applying “Malaysians”….to reprogram your mindset..to a country….with one race.
Otherwise…..whatever sincerity you have…is under suspect…to be a racialist.

Mengibarkan bendera terbalik, menegak, melintang atau apa sahaja, jika dilihat secara kasar atau dari jauh, bendera Malaysia tetap dikibarkan, ia gagal membawa maksud.

Jangan kibarkan bendera Malaysia di mana sahaja, rumah, kereta, bangunan sebagai satu protes mungkin lebih menunjukkan ’sepi’ dan rakyat tidak meraikannnya.

If celebrating Merdeka Day is a question of whether to fly the flag, or not, whether to fly it right side up or upside down, then it is just political posturing. Read Susan Loone’s blog on this issue, Raising The Malaysian Flag or not?

As several bloggers have said before, the Malaysian flag does not represent the government but the country and its people. What is more meaningful is for both the PM and the defacto head of the Opposition to proclaim a national day of repentance either on Merdeka or Sept 16 Malaysia Day.

You may ask: Why should we innocent citizens repent when we have done no wrong to the country?

Not responsible for the state of the country? Really? Who abstained from voting for the past two decades to allow for a one-party monopoly? Who continued to support the compliant newspapers?

Lastly, who cursed Malaysia the blessed country by equating the government with the country, saying things like Malaysia is going down the drain or we are the Zimbabwe of SEA?

We can do what we want with the flag or any symbol, but our words of mockery and curses on Malaysia may one day come true.

I agree with “kerbaupendek”.

Our countrymen in uniform, the soldiers, have put their lives on the line for defending the flag. Some died defending the honor of the flag.

The flag is a symbol of the people, the monarchy and the land we live.

If we are distressed by being attacked by external forces, like we are at war, then the country is truly distressed and a call for the people to defend the nation from the insurgency of external forces.

But the nation is not in distressed from external forces. The people who caused distressed are those WE put up during the election (even though some of us did not vote them in, but by the principle of democracy, the majority of Malaysians put them there). By extension, it means WE ouselves have put the nation in distress. Then why should WE put the flag upside down in distress?? WE HAD CAUSED THE NATION TO BE DISTRESSED. AND WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DISTRESS.

As such to claim the nation is in distressed caused by “others” (who WE voted in) is hypocritical and illogical. It is small minded to think as such.

On the above argument , I cannot agree, first of all, the basis to say the nation is in distressed and secondly, and to symbolise that distress to fly the Malaysian flag upside down.

Yes, the nation is in distressed, but the cause of that distress cannot justify the use the flag as its expression. It is wrongly placed and wrongly based upon.

If we are at war and we are helpless, yes the flag is put upside down.

Put other political flags upside down, or hang our politicians’ photos upside down… for causing us the distress. Not the flag.. not for this reason.

4 08 2008
Frank

I prefer the suggestion by “Diver.Miskin”

Fly the flag HALF-MAST. Put up an image of our flag flow HALF MASK.

This I will agree. It is an expression of our sadness of the state of our nation.

It also symbolises the death of the many aspirations of Malaysians, and also a subtle reminder that we wish some of our useless leaders might as well be dead politically.

Flyinng half masT carries a different connotation and significantly different, than flying upside down

FLYING HALF MAST is more meaningful than FLYING UPSIDE DOWN.

Shieh, I wish you can retract your proposal and change to FLYING THE FLAG HALF MAST

I disagree to fly the flag upside down.
I think the Merdeka Parade..where Dollah and Najib will be attending…should be boycotted by Malaysians. Let them see an empty padang.
They are the ones..we shout show a message to…not by using or National flag.
If you say..go buy UMNO flags and hang it upside down…may make sense.
And what I suggested….boycott Merdeka Parade..may shame the Agong..saluting an empty padang,
Not intended to do so…to him. I think Agong understands…we are sending a message to UMNO and BN.
like I said…Mahatma Gandhi asked Indians…to make it a day of rest..on a British celebration in India. All did and it sent shivers to Britain.

5 08 2008

The way to approach the issue of flying the national flag upside down is to ask are we breaking any law? Otherwise, it is an issue of freedom of speech. Go ahead express your opinion i.e. make a public statement. It is your right under our Constitution.

It is certainly not desecration of the flag. It is not in other jurisdictions and so why should it be in Malaysia? Burning the flag or using the national flag as an underwear is desecration!

Flying the flag half-mast is not quite the same as flying the flag upside down. It does not convery the same message.

Salam,

Berkenaan bendera terbalik nie… memang benar ia adalah simbol kecemasan.. maybe, kalian boleh menonton cerita ‘The Last Castle’ lakonan Robert Redford… cerita tersebut ada menceritakan berkenaan mengibarkan bendera terbalik sebagai simbol mereka didalam tekanan…

tetapi, saya masih tidak bersetuju dgn cara ini.. bagi saya ia tetap satu penghinaan taktala negara diambang sambutan hari kemerdekaan ke 51… saya berpendapat mengibarkan bendera separuh tiang lebih kuat impaknya serta mesej yang ingin disampaikan… ia menandakan segenap rakyat Malaysia masih berkabung keatas kematian demokrasi, keadilan, kebebasan etc…. juga menandakan seluruh rakyat Malaysia dlm keadaan yg sedih dgn keadaan politik semasa yg tidak tentu hala…

oleh itu saya sendiri akan mengibarkan bendera separuh tiang tanda protes saya terhadap keadaan negara skrg… bermula dgn blog saya sendiri…

In any event of war, such flags really does mean a distress signal. It means that backup is needed, the fort is under attacked and needed full backup and protection.

Taken from the US Flag Code :

§ 176. Respect for flag: No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.

(a) The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.

Thus, for that, I agree with Sheih. We are in dire need of help, from the continuously ongoing tyranny.

KERAJAAN TETAP BERKERAS KEPALA DAN TIDAK MENDENGAR KESEKSAAN RAKYAT MALAYSIA.. bila kami bersuara, kami kena tangkap. masuk jail dan lain lain. MALAYSIA is going BACKWARDS dont you see.

Why cares

Malaysian Flag upside down ? Nation in distress ?

I am not flying the Malaysian Flag at all this year.

No mood to celebrate this year.
