Somewhere where the Malay's concept of gotong royong and community spiritedness is alive?Originally posted by Kuali Baba:Ahh, I get what you mean now.
I'd been thinking of moving to another community elsewhere for some time, but never alone...I think one still needs friends of the desirable sort for himself/herself and the children.
Not just that, but also someplace where the things I don't like about this society and its authorities aren't a problem.Originally posted by laurence82:Somewhere where the Malay's concept of gotong royong and community spirit is alive?
Even when they tell you there is a green patch of grass, you can't expect every single strand of them to be green... Likewise, you can't represent everyone...

Because their sort of tolerance, I can do without, and my sort of tolerance, has just become non-existant.Originally posted by Devil1976:The REASON they're existing today... You are existing today...
