This is for all students of Form 2 or above. (Of course, first formers are welcomed to read it as well because you're all going to study about it eventually.)
Right, remember the 7th chapter in Form 2 History text book? It's the chapter talking all the bullshit (excuse me) about heroes fighting for their -our- country. Oh, you know - the "heroes" who sounded more like terrorists, "heroes" who attacked the British because they had "menghilang kuasa untuk memungut cukai danmentadbir" or because the British had "melucutkan gelaranmereka". Yeah, I know! The British are plain atrocious, aren't they? These "heroes" have perfect reasons to attack the British, I tell you.
I mean, they got a warning letter from the British for not paying their taxes! What were the Brits thinking?! The office for paying taxes are located in towns. What did they expect the villagers to do? Walk out of their kampung to the nearest town (probably 1 or 2 kilometers far)once a month just to pay taxes? Why, how utterly ridiculous!
Alright, sarcasms aside. I've just been reading about DatoMaharaja Lela, "Pejuang Kebangsaan Perak", and did a search on the Internet. (For those who are really rusty in History, he's the one who killed Birch who was taking a bath. Seriously, how cowardly can he be? I mean, Birch obviously had no weapon with him - when he's taking a bath.) And, I found out that apparently Mr D. (Dato Maharaja Lela, for dimwitted eejits) captured and sold the Orang Asli as slaves to maintain his gleaming pile of gold. Birch, though hypocritically, abolished the practice of slavery and therefore cutting his steady income, was killed by Mr. D, the cowardly dog -I mean, ahem, hero.
Seriously though dudes, this chapter is very interesting. Especially when you look at it in the unpatriotic way. You'll be laughing to death like we did. Enjoy studying, third formers! Freedom is weeks away! (That is, if you survive the battle.)
Good luck, my sweet readers.
