“The colors of a rainbow.....so pretty ..in the sky ... Are also on the faces.....of people ..going by..I see friends shaking hands.....sayin.. how do you do... They’re really sayin......i love you”.
The lyric of Louis Armstrong comes to mind this afternoon as I sit in front of the computer.

Rainbow has 7 colors, which we have always been told. McDonalds in collaboration with Coca Cola came out with a ‘7 colors’ promotion recently. Well how have these 7 colors affected my life. Let’s try and find out.
Perky Pink
Mr PM wore a pink baju melayu for his Hari Raya Open House, which the 1Malaysia motion was widely spread. Let’s not have 1Malaysia be just a lip serving, feel good vision, which previous visions of Wawasan 2020, and Islam Hadhari have not seen any substantial impact to everyday Malaysians. 1Malaysia does not need glamour of the F1 circus, or a ‘20% discount for toll users, who uses Touch N Go more than 80 times a month collected at the end of the month, by going to the Plus office and feeling up a form’ to make Malaysians feel proud of the vision. We need real actions. Mr PM, eradicate poverty, improve transportation, create jobs, provide safety and stimulate the economy. I don’t think it’s difficult. If it is, ask any Malaysians for advice, or even, play SIMCITY

Cool Blue
When we were in school, ‘Blue’ Tape is like the coolest thing in the world. 15 years on, it’s still the coolest thing, but now it’s DVD instead of VCR Tapes. More interestingly, it no longer involves professional porn stars from Japan or America, it could be a hit, even if it’s by a local politician. In fact, it not only attracts curiosity of the birds and the bees to its viewers, it’s also a recipe of political tsunami and now possibily a change of leadership in Malaysia’s ‘Leading’ Chinese Political Party.
Fortune Green
Green will no longer be the colors of PAS, as Zainal Abidin , a famous Malaysia singer has plans to setup a political party which concentrates on environmental and humanitarian issues. Hahaha. I wonder who will sit in the Cabinet then. Jason Lo , Minister of Defense ; Siti Nurhaliza, Ministry of Women Affairs ; Jaclyn Victor, Minister of Tourism ; Reshmonu, Minister of Home Affairs. I bet you the first thing they will ban is pirated DVD and CD.
Royal PurplePurple is the color of Barney, the dinosaur. I like Barney.
Fresh Lime
Malaysia loves Lime. They make it a drink, they mix it in their Maggi Goreng, they blend it with their sambal, they mix it with ‘hand wash’ water. Malaysian loves to mix things. But a wrong mixture is disastrous. For example, mixing Pakatan Rakyat and PAS in Selangor, mixing Proton with Lotus, mixing Proton with F1 and mixing raw oyster with dairy product. All will create a mess to our society, one way or another.
Iconic Grey
Most Malaysian politician, once they take office, they tend to have more grey hair. Act of late nights trying to counter corruption allegations, how to create more scandals for the opposition, how to spend more Rakyat’s money, how to build the biggest/longest/largest etc, and what colors should the 1Malaysia F1 car going to be. Everything but important matters to the average Malaysian.
Sparkly Clear
This is really not a color. It’s actually colorless. In society, Malaysia, we are educated to be ‘color blind’ . When I was in kindergarten, all my friends were the same color, they were Malaysian colors. But as we grew older, it was adults who created the color distinction and ironically, it’s adult right now who are calling for Unity, without colors. I think all politicians should go back to their kids, who are in kindergarten or Standard 1, to learn one lesson in Malaysian Unity. Malaysians ought to be Color Blind .
