Sometimes you wonder why the other countries don't take Malaysia all too seriously. Aside from their alleged government-funded VCD factories, Malaysia has one again stepped into the international spotlight with another announcement worthy of a place in the book of stupid things to do.
They want to drape the Jalur Gemilang and 56 other flags over a pyramid. No, not Sunway Pyramid in all its tacky, polystyrene-painted glory, but the pyramid, the big one at Giza.
The Egyptian government said no.
Would you believe it? The Egyptians said no. No to the Malaysian Peace Mission team, no to the RM200,000 effort, and no to the exploitation of one of the world's most iconic pieces of architecture that has aboslutely nothing to do with them in the first place.
What complete and utter morons.
Nevermind, the Statue of Liberty would probably look good in a baju kebaya. Let's ask the Americans.
