All valid and cogent points.
Like I said, I too am part of the rot.
If I had the time, I would definitely attempt to better my own time and hopefully give the the Singaporeans a run for their money. I wouldn't be:-
a) a keyboard warrior
b) use excuses like exchange rates, private testing and talent as a reason as to why we fail time and again.
c) exemplifying the rubbish that the Malaysian government has created. Blame it on everything, use every excuse in the book and never take accountability or responsibility for anything. Mediocrity is a disease that we Malaysians all face. Some of us accept this and try to change whilst others bathe in their glorious ignorance.
Supra Fanatic is the supreme avatar of this ignorance. Instead of trying to improve or discuss a challenge, he relies on somebody else to accomplish the task. Either that, or he is hiding his insecurities/inability behind a veil of cheap sarcasm.
Do you not fight hard or question what is wrong when something important (personal/national accomplishment) is defeated or usurped?
OR do you just hang your head low and say...bla bla bla....blame it on everything but yourself JUST so that you can have a clear conscience.
We, Malaysian motorheads do not lack money, infrastructure or talent.
We lack COMMITMENT, we talk the talk, we talk shop but 99% of us are just wannabes. We don't love anything enough to excel in it.
If money was so scarce, why bother even racing? why are track days always so full? why are there more performance car variants than ever before? We love to say we "track" or "race" but to us, it is a "lifestyle" statement. Nothing more, we do what is convenient, we do what we can......we never exceed the norm, we always have a reason to cop out, we always rationalize our failures. We do nothing to excel. This is our national identity and it is obvious in most of us. Me included. I am everything I have stated and I am ashamed. I cop out by saying I have no time BUT we all know that we can always make time.
No rights or wrongs, but we LOST not because they were better, we LOST because we couldn't be bothered to try winning.
