'Gulag' mentality that is holding us back.

Abstract
THE declaration of Sept 16 as a national holiday which
happened quite close to the eve of the 20th
anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on Nov 9, 1989 has
special significance to Malaysians all over the
country.
Although unlike the neighbouring cities of East and West Berlin, divided by a manmade
barrier, Peninsular
Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak are on two land masses separated naturally by a deep blue ocean. While
their German counterparts, Berliners in particular, faced unimaginable tragedies for almost three decades,
Malaysians on either sides are spared such agonies.
